Adil Bakkali - AWESOME tour guide! - We booked a private day tour with Adil and it did not disappoint! Adil comes with so much knowledge of the medina and he thoroughly explained the history of each place we stopped at in detail, which we appreciated as we wouldn't have that depth of knowledge if we had been on our own without a guide. The architecture and craftsmanship in Fes is just INCREDIBLE! Adil also took the time to make sure we tried some local treats and freshly baked bread, which was amazing as well. I would highly recommend Adil for a private tour of the medina if you are planning a visit to Fes as he is a local with so much passion for his city.

Adil Bakkali great guide - When we arrived in Fes we didn't think we were going to take a tour of the medina. But after deciding to do one and getting Adil Bakkali as our guide, we were so happy that we did. Adil was a great guide and his knowledge and tour route was excellent. We learned so much from him and got to see places that we would have never got to see if we had gone on our own. Highly recommend this tour and Adil as a guide!

Interesting tour with a guide who knows his subject well! - Nice visit , not too long , interesting explanation from our private guide Jamal. Obviously as always we are taken to some shops to explain different manufacturing methods with the intention of making us buy stuff. In our case this was not a problem as we had already planned to take advantage of this guided tour to make some purchases. But be advised that we don't feel obliged to buy anything. And remains a fact , we buy authentic products often made on site by craftsmen before our eyes.

Best city guide experience I’ve ever had! - Adil Bakkali was an absolutely amazing guide! He was very knowledgeable about Fes, especially the Medina. He was so generous and patient with taking amazing photos and while we shopped. We loved spending the day with him and learning about him and his family. If I ever find myself in Fes again, I would definitely be contacting Adil. If you want a knowledgeable, fun, and kind guide for Fes, you cannot go wrong with Adil!

Definitely recommend getting a guide - Our tour guide did a wonderful job of showing us around the Medina and hitting all the highlights. Very laid back and took our cues on what pace we wanted to go, giving us extra time as needed. You will visit shops, but you don’t have to purchase anything if you don’t want to. We stopped for mint tea in the morning and a traditional lunch midday. Eager to answer our questions and show us his home. We were so glad we had a guide to help us get used to navigating the complexity of the Medina.

Great tour from someone who really knows their stuff! - The tour was very nice and took me to places I would never have discovered on my own. Adil comes from there himself and knows very well accordingly. He knows the people and also made sure I paid fair prices for souvenirs. Thank you so much!
