Beautiful Fès - We did a private guided tour with the best guide Abdul. He knows every corner and everyone in the medina of Fès. He showed us places we were never able to find ourselves. Honestly, I would always advise to visit Fès with a guide, you will miss a lot if you do it on your own. And if you go for a guide, go for Abdul and you will have an amazing time. Best, Diederik and Reine!

Fantastic experience - I am a frequent visitor to Morocco for the past 40 years Fez is one of the highlights of the country...hence for my recent family trip I wanted a reliable guide to tour the Medina. We were lucky enough to find Azzidine through this website. He was very knowledgeable..kind..and...fun. showing a lot of empathy with my children. In brief..our visit was a fantastic experience. And I know how nasty Fez can be if accompanied by the wrong person. Thank you! Muchas gracias ! Iñaki

A journey through time with Abdul - Our guide Abdul was very good. Very prepared and helpful. He accompanied us to see the city of Fes making us discover not only the most cultural part but also that related to 'local crafts. We visited several workshops and even tasted the bread directly where it is baked in large ovens. We also visited the oldest hammam. Together with Abdul we felt very safe around the old city. He picked us up and accompanied us back to our Riad as well as providing us with many useful tips to continue our stay in Fes. I recommend everyone to choose the visit of Fes with a guide because the city is a maze where it is easy to get lost.

A hidden world behind every door - The medina of Fès is like a living labyrinth, and this tour was the perfect key to unlock its secrets. We explored quiet alleys, historical buildings, and traditional workshops. Our guide had incredible local knowledge and even introduced us to artisans whose families have practiced their craft for generations. It felt like we were stepping into stories that aren’t in any guidebook.

An enriching cultural experience - I recommend this visit to anyone who wants to discover the real Fes. It is not just a walk, but a dive into the history, architecture and craft traditions of the city. Our guide passionately explained the role of Medras, fondouks and ancient caravanserai. We saw craftsmen working leather, copper, wood... it was fascinating. I particularly liked the respect of the rhythm, we were not in a hurry, we took the time to ask questions and exchange.

Eye-opening and inspiring – perfect for solo explorers! - As a solo traveler, I always look for authentic experiences, and this tour was exactly that. The guide made me feel safe and welcomed from the start. We wandered through the narrow alleyways of Fès, uncovering hidden gems I’d never have found on my own. The carpet-weaving cooperative and the calligraphy shop were particularly inspiring. I loved the personal stories shared about each artisan. This was more than just sightseeing — it was a journey through living history.
