Helps build confidence for first timers - What a great experience this was. We booked this for our first day to build confidence in the Medina and learn how to shop and what to look for. Our guide showed us many beautiful sights and gave lots of history lessons while we walked. It was truly a personal experience and our guide Mohammed was fantastic. Would highly recommend this tour!

He took us around to show us a few headed local spots, a few historical spots as well as typical tourist attractions. He is very kind and polite and even bought us some nice chocolates to try.

Great guide with lots of knowledge - We had a wonderful tour through the less travelled souks in Marrakesh and got to see artisans at work. We got an insight into the old ways and also how things are changing in the modern world. The guide was knowledgeable about building practices which was interesting to my son and husband who are builders. Nice pace and very interesting especially the history and values of the people of the area.

Excellent Marrakech activity - We were fortunate to have the same guide as we did the previous day on another trip. Charif was again excellent and shared so much of his knowledge and passion for his beautiful country. He also treated us to some snacks, and mint tea of course, along the way!
This trip is highly recommended with Charif and good value for money.

Not all expenses included - While our tour guide was very kind and knowledgeable, it bears mentioning that you have to pay for your own entrance into the Medersa Ben Youssef (cash only) and the Secret Gardens. Additionally, you should plan to bring extra cash if you plan to shop. Our guide took us to places he found to be high quality, which was nice, but be ruthless with your negotiations as the vendors will inflate prices greatly.
