Amazing Guide - My wife and I visited Fez for my wife’s birthday. Mohammed was the best tour guide for this special occasion from start to finish. He truly loves his city and demonstrates it with his wealth of knowledge of the history of Fez he teaches during the tour. His great sense of humor added to the experience. He is truly well loved by the community. Everyone one that we saw greeted him with a smile and warm embrace. It is like walking through town with a celebrity who is a friend. Thank you Mohammed for a great day!

Wonderful Fez Medina Guide! - My husband and I had a great tour of the Fez medina courtesy of Mohammed. He has a wealth of historical knowledge and interesting tidbits about the medina that only a lifelong resident would have. He knew secret passages and alleys that only a local knows. He took us to some of his go to vendors for carpet (we just received our carpet in the US! so his carpet man is reliable and trustworthy), spices (great for prickly pear and argan oil), etc. It was amusing to see him walk around like the “mayor” of the Medina. All the locals knew him and had great respect for him. We highly recommend Mohammed as a Fez medina guide!

Correct, the best guide in Fez! - Absolutely the best guide you can book in Fez! Very knowledgeable, but even more so, he is a genuine character, and obviously loved by everyone in the Medina. He assisted us well past the end of our tour and ensured our entire trip was the unforgettable experienceuu we were in search of! Even 6 stars would not be enough!

Best tour guide ever! - He was truly the best tour guide we could have asked for in Fes. Super knowledgeable, funny, and made the entire day feel effortless and fun. He took us to all of the main hotspots while also sharing so much history and context that made everything more meaningful. His lunch recommendation was also excellent - it was one of our favorite meals of the trip. The whole time, I genuinely felt like we were in the best hands. It honestly felt like walking around with the mayor of Fes because he knew everybody! Everywhere we went, people seemed to know him, which made the experience feel even more special and authentic. Could not recommend him more highly.

Best Fes Tour Guide Ever!!! - We booked Mohammed through our Riad, and we couldn’t have asked for a better tour guide for the city! He has been in Fes for over 50+ years and it shows through his intentional and engaging descriptions of the life/traditions of Fes. He started off our tour by giving us a history of the creation of the city and leading us to a variety of cultural spots - religious tombs, historic madrasas, museums, and more. He also took us to a number of different artist collectives where we were able to buy authentic, handmade souvenirs. He even helped us haggle, which we were super thankful for! For lunch, he brought us to a traditional local spot and we got a tasting menu of a variety of different Moroccan street food specialities. We truly felt like we were locals! All throughout the tour, Mohammed greeted, and was greeted, by so many different shop owners, locals, and passerbys. This showed how beloved he is in the community and really made us feel like we were in good hands! Towards the end of our tour, Mohammed remembered that we had mentioned seeing the “blue gate” so he made sure the taxi driver drove us there to see it before returning to our riad. All in all, Mohammed was professional, easy to understand when speaking English, informative, and very funny. We would recommend him to anyone who asks!!

Amazing tour with Mohammed - Our almost all-day tour with Mohamed was wonderful! From start to finish, he taught us about Fes and Morocco, and the culture in customs of this amazing country. He seemed to know everyone in the Medina and greeted everyone with cheer and a smile. He was very caring and considerate of keeping a pace that was comfortable for the four of us. He did take us to artisan cooperatives for leather, tile, and other handicrafts as we wove around the souls. A wonderful experience, thank you again, Mohamed!

Great Experience with Mohammed in Fez! - Mohammed has been by far the BEST guide in all of Morocco. With all the patience, and especially the knowledge of Fez like no one else. Friend of all. Protector, Guide, Master and above all he took us to places we would never have known if it weren't for him.
