The tour was great & Mehdi is the best! - This tour was totally worth it! Mehdi was a fantastic guide. He knew all of the perfect little spots to bring us that showcased the Moroccan food and culture. He also challenged my friends and I to try foods that were a little adventurous for us and we were so glad we did! 10/10 would recommend!

Enjoyable, delicious, friendly - A wonderful experience with many tastes in various corners of the medina, including a couple that were completely 'backstage.'
Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable and just a pleasure to spend time with.

A great culinary adventure with guide Mehdi! - If you're visiting Marrakech and want to experience the city's soul through its food, this is the tour to book - and with Mehdi as your guide, you're in for something super nice🙂!
Mehdi is a fantastic guide - knowledgeable, fun and full of passion for street food. He guided us through the bustling streets and hidden alleys of the medina, introducing us to such a variety of local food & flavors, such as: harira, grilled meat skewers, moroccan doughnuts, ... and even steamed sheep's head! (which was surprisingly tasteful 😋)
Thank you so much, Mehdi, for your warmth and enthousiasm and for a delightful evening!

Real original streetfood experience - It was a very original streetfood tour. Mehdi took us to places where I normally not would have gone and let us taste terrific food that l otherwise not would have tried. It was a great experience, with lots of vibe and good explanation, I definitely recommend it

Everything I hoped for and more - Our guide Mehdi was knowledgable and super nice. We went to places I never would have found otherwise, and I've tried food I never would have tried otherwise - and I liked it!
I usually prefer doing things on my own, but this tour was a delightful experience and I cannot recommend it highly enough.
