to get to the point! - Practical visit to get to the essentials! Information guide. You must know that you pay in addition to the price of the visit the entrances to the gardens and palaces, and that you must book in advance otherwise there is possibly no more room!
We wanted to book (two days in advance) at the Jardin Majorelle but unfortunately there was no room. Our guide, by sms, knew how to guide us to buy tickets in other interesting gardens. In total, we visited with our guide the Bahia Palace, the secret gardens, and the souk.

Great cultural tour of the city - This was exactly the guided tour we were looking for. Abdelfatah was knowledgeable and courteous but also had a great sense of humour. The sites visited were ideal and we got a good sense of the history and culture of Marrakech. Highly recommended. Mohammed was also a prompt and patient chauffeur.

Fascinating insight into past history of Marakesh - Cancelled without notifying us but guide still turned up and gave us an amazing tour - they did not want us to be let down - so guide Abdelfatah Nanaa joined us with driver Aziz and showed us round the Bahia Palace followed by the amazing Majorelle gardens and finishing with a tour of the Medina - so pleased the local organisers did not want us let down by the cancellation - highly recommended

Beautiful excursion and guide - This private tour with driver and guide excited and delighted us.
From the start and before leaving the communication was very effective.
We had a little constraint and they were able to adapt to our request.
Our guide Abeldfata has been amazingly professional and courteous and considerate. He gave us all the necessary information during the visits with humor and sympathy.
We recommend this very interesting and practical excursion.
My advice ++: book very quickly the Jardin Majorelle (on the official online site) to be sure of this with your date and t timing of excursion.

Excellent tour! - I was very lucky to be the only one on this tour. My guide was excellent and gave me a lot of local knowledge along the way. The stops were excellent and really showed me the Marrakesh centre. Would recommend!

Magnificent Marrakesh with Mo! - Fantastic day with Mohammed "Mo" who shared his heritage with us and explained the history and current life in Marrakech. A truly brilliant guide who charmed our shy 7 year old while giving us adults an excellent look at his town. We all learned so much. We loved the visit to the Berber pharmacy where we learned how to use ancient and natural healing products that we have heard about in the states. The insider expertise was great. We found the Medina a bit difficult on our own, but very doable with Mo. Our driver was also named Mohammed, who navigated the crazy busy streets safely and got us close to where we needed to be. Great day for us! I'm such a fan of Viator tours. Thank you.

Marrakech gems - Mohammed was a very good tour guide and was professional from start to finish, informing us of his arrival, describing the main attractions and we really enjoyed our experience of seeing Marrakech with him. The only drawback is the visit to the cooperative where women sell Argan oil and other herbs and spices, as you feel very obliged to buy products and there is no discount offered so expensive day.

Disappointed - It started well, we wanted more of a drive and get out type of tour but there was a lot of walking involved. The guide took us to where he obviously got a kick back in a medical shop and was obviously not impressed when we refused to go in. For this I would not recommend this trip!!
