Ultimate Medina Food Tour for Foodies - My fifteen year old son and I, along with four other foodies, and Rachid, as our guide, set off on our four hour Food Tour of the Medina in Marrakech. Rachid is very knowledgeable and has a lovely rapport with all of the food stall owners that you visit along the way. The food stall owners were all happy to answer our questions and if we wanted, be photographed. The number of things you taste on this tour is phenomenal and so much thought has been given to making sure you taste the best of the best street food in the Medina. I am reluctant to list everything we ate (nor include too many photos) as I think it is nice to have an element of surprise but we all ate everything and loved it all - biggest surprises for us were how tasty offal can be! This is our second A Chef’s Tour (having also done the Bangkok tour) and I knew when I saw there was one in Marrakesh that there was no choice to be made! It did not disappoint! Look no further and “book it” would be my advice. You’ll spend a lovely (tasting and extremely filling) afternoon/evening with Rachid.

Father and son food tour - Great guide and fabulous eats. On a very hot day we were constantly provided with cold bottled water. Highly recommend if you want to try a wide range of food. I advise to go hungry as there are more than enough treats to satisfy even the hungriest of guests. Rashid was great

One of the BEST food tours I’ve done - cannot recommend it enough!! - 10/10 would recommend. We did a food tour in Marrakech and I cannot tell you how amazing it was! Four hours and fourteen stops, places I’d never think to go, and things I’d never think to eat. Our guide was amazing: friendly, professional and funny. My partner and I are big foodies and getting to eat amazing food while going behind the scenes (and making some food) was totally worth every penny. We were a group of six which was perfect for squeezing into small cafes, and everyone felt like they got the VIP treatment.

A culinary journey ;) - Rashid guided us through the medina, sharing his passion for the streetfood of Marrakesh and the flavours of Morocco. Perfectly paced, plenty of interactive activities and lots of sitting down to share food :) It was extremely hot but he kept us hydrated and was responsive to needs of the group. Intimate and perfect with like minded people from all over the world. It was just perfect and the food was tasty too!!!

Best Morrocan food tour - An absolute highlight of our visit to Marrakesh!! We had the most incredible afternoon with Rachid travelling through the medina and tasting the very best of Moroccan cuisine. He was very informative and the dishes were explained in detail as we tried them. I would highly recommend booking a tour with him, you will not be disapointed!

Best way to get acclimated to Marrakech! - Rachid was a wonderful guide who was full of great information about the area & brought us to the most delicious food throughout the Medina. Having been on multiple food tours, this was the first one that included 15+ stops. Luckily, everything we tasted was perfectly sized. It also helped that there was some good walking between stops and even stops to show us how the food we were tasting was made. Combined, these factors made the tour very enjoyable, delicious, and educational from start to finish. Highly recommend this tour!
