Our driver was Mohamed... - Our driver was Mohamed and was very knowledgeable and very accommodating to me and my friend. When the palace in Meknes was un expectedly closed, he offered a range of solutions and alternatives and made for a great guide! Thank you!

Definitely worth doing. - This day trip added so much to our visit to Fez. The van was comfortable and the driver very professional. We loved seeing the ruins and getting a broader sense of Moroccan history.

Mohammed was very kind.... - Mohammed was very kind. Took me to a few extra spots that weren’t on the itenary. Also got to learn a lot about Fez, Moulay Idriss , Meknes and Volubilis. No rush and had enough time to explore and take pictures. Will definitely be back again soon.

A educational and fun day on the road - Mohammed was an excellent driver and general tour guide. First of all, his vehicle was new and very comfortable. His commentary while on the road went well beyond the specifics of the tour; rather he had a running dialogue on things related to Morocco, the region around Fez and Meknes, etc. He was always looking out for comfort. When there was a need for more in-depth knowledge (I.e., Volubilis), he worked to find us the best certified guide. Besides all that. he likes the Blues and has an excellent playlist. He even made a stop for us on the way back for our personal needs. I would make one suggestion for Mohammed — he speaks softly and for those who are a bit hard of hearing can be hard to understand. When I asked him to speak up, he always did. We had an enjoyable day with Mohammed and would definitely use him again.

Truly wonderful day with Mohamed! - Mohamed's love of Morocco and desire to give his guests the best experience possible was extraordinary! He anticipated our every need from wet wipes for our hands to coins to use the bathroom. He catered to our particular interests (even treating us to pomegranates and coffee and also stopping at a supermarket) and we learned so much about Moroccan history and culture. We only had a day with him but it was one we will never forget. Highly recommended!

Very pleasant stay in northern Morocco. - Beautiful 4-day getaway in northern Morocco with Mohammed: Fes, Middle Atlas, Meknes, volubilis, Chefchaouen, Tetouan and Tangier. Mohammed is a cheerful, professional guide, perfectly familiar with the history of his country. Its extensive network makes your stay smooth and efficient. We had a great time with him. It is very endearing and with little care! We highly recommend it!
