Interesting and enjoyable - Guide most informative and friendly. Communication was excellent and the local guide met us on time at our Riad in the heart of the Medina. Half a day well spent seeing some of what Marrakesh has to offer. Absolutely recommend.

Excellent Highlights Tour - We booked this tour in TripAdvisor. The tour operator One Life Trips confirmed the tour a couple of days before the tour. Our tour guide Hamza arrived promptly at the scheduled time. This tour encompassed the landmarks within Marrakech. I recommend this tour to anyone who has limited time in Marrakech. We went to the Koutoubia Mosque, Bahia Palace, the Jewish Quarter, the Kaabah, Medersa Ben Youssef, the Medina and finally ended in Jemaa el Fnaa. Hamza was very knowledgeable and provided us a lot of information on the culture and history. He navigated us through the Medina, dodging the motorcycles. We would not have been able to make it through the souks without his assistance. I definitely recommend this tour and going private was worth it. Thank you Hamza and Khaoula for making our first visit to Marrakech memorable.

Informative tour for first time visitor - Informative tour and great introduction to Marrakech for first time visitor. Tour guide, Rahim, is friendly, knowledgeable and straightforward. Driver is kind too. I’m a solo traveler and it was really a private tour with just myself and the guide. For the price paid, it’s worthwhile. Visited the major tourist sites (Koutoubia, Bahia Palace, Madrasa Ben Youssef and famous Medina Souks). It’s very crowded and full of tourists.
