Friendly and knowledgeable guide, great way to see the Medina! - We really enjoyed our walking tour around the Medina. Jihad was a great guide and provided us with lots of interesting information on Marrakesh and Morocco as a whole. If it's your first time in Marrakech I'd definitely recommend this tour as the souks are a fast moving maze with lots going on. Having someone with local knowledge is definitely the best way to see the area for the first time and Jihad is clearly an expert!

Walking tour of medina - Dani was our guide for the morning, from start to finish he was informative, entertaining and easy going. As two females we felt extremely safe and comfortable in his company.
Dani took us to all the the sights we maybe wouldn’t have known about . His English was very good. We visited the palace, the souks and madrassa and explained he explained the history of each place.
We would recommend his tour to any of our friends and would say dont hesitate to book this yourself!

Highly recommend to anyone! - As two 20yr old women we were cautious of exploring Marrakech on our own, but Dani made us feel safe and at ease as we explored the streets, sharing with us tips and tricks as we went!
We spent 4hrs exploring Marrakech and learnt so much! He was very knowledgeable and informative of both the tourist sites and general life/culture in the city.
You get to skip the queues with a guide which was brilliant! And he provided a wealth of knowledge about each site we visited. He also asked if we were interested in each area, meaning the tour was totally adaptable to our tastes and mobility.
Would highly recommend to anyone!!

Solo traveling to being with friends! - I came to Morocco as a female solo traveler and I wanted to be able to see all the major parts of Marrakech without being afraid of being alone. This tour was perfect and my tour guide Dani was so knowledgeable about Marrakech and Morocco’s history. He made sure I was walking safely and I really felt protected the entire time. We spent about 3-4 hours touring and he even stopped a few times for me to get food, drinks and buy a dress from the souks. The patience Dani had was so great and he even took all my photos! These are hard things to do when traveling alone so I appreciate this tour option. It was a perfect day!

Discover the secrets of the medina - By yourself the medina can absorb you and miss the details that cannot be seen, but with the guide it will reveal the secrets it has hidden.

Cool free tour - The guide was so kind. He took us to the Medina and showed us everything very well. He also showed us a Riad as we wanted to see one (he made us that favor). We really enjoyed the time spent with him.
