Full of local favorites and variety - Mehdi was a fantastic guide! He took us to small side streets where locals eat, was great at giving information and answering questions, and was kind to give our unfinished food to others to enjoy. We got to try so much variety and left with happy, very full stomachs!

5 STAR FOODIE TOUR - Mehdi was fabulous! So so knowledgeable and kind.
He took us to places off the beating track of the tourist trail and into different parts of the medina where we had never been before.
He was so friendly and warm and took pictures of us as well as helped us barter as a bit of an extra too!
I would 100% recommend this tour for anyone who enjoys good food and rich culture.

Marrakech Food Tour by night - Excellent tour and introduction for us to Marrakech. Our guide, Mehdi, led our group of 12 through the narrow streets to eat local food in places we would never have found. A great experience.

Incredible, unbeatable, authentic experience - I took this tour as a female solo traveller because I wanted to try authentic food, but I wanted to make sure the food would be safe and I would be safe being out alone at night. It was so much better than I even expected! The sheer amount of food you get is such a value, and it’s all so delicious you have to be careful to pace yourself and not get too full too fast. We got to try a perfect mix of delicious comforting foods like soup and crepes and also more adventurous things like cow udder and sheep head (optional!). Mehdi was an incredible guide and extremely attentive and gave amazing service. I forgot to bring water so I asked him if I could go get one and he bought me one, and another was provided at one of the stops. There really is no better way to get a super authentic, local insight into the food scene in Marrakech.

Great tour, Delicious food, Unique impressions of Marrakech - We had a great food experience with Mehdi. He was very enthusiastic and kept a good overview of the entire group. We've all been to unique local food joints. Places where you wouldn’t immediately walk in, but surprise you with great food. This tour is a recommendation!

It was fun and filling. - Meddy was a very nice guy and he truly loves food. He detailed all the ingredients that went into each dish and was friendly and enthusiastic. Lots of food and a wide variety of spots. The only reason i didnt give it 5 stars is because the food in Marrakesh does not have an abundance of spice. It can be a little flat. Not Meddys fault.

Great way to sample the local food. - A wonderful and safe way to experience the Medina at night.
Our guide Meddy led us around, and he was insightful and patient.
I recommend this as a wonderful way to try the food and learn your way around the Medina.
