Brilliant, informative, well-paced tour with friendly guide - I booked this tour rather last minute when I found I had a gap in my schedule whilst in Tangiers. I was grateful that Karim and the team wereable to accommodate my request, and I went on the tour with Jasmine at noon.
Because I was staying in a hotel close to the port, Jasmine met me directly in my hotel lobby which was super convenient, and we headed off walking from there. Virtually the entire walk Jasmine was reeling off the history of Tangiers, and she always had an answer to my questions. It was super interesting learning about the history of the city as well as the current situation and change Tangiers is experiencing. Throughout the tour I felt I was in safe hands, as Jasmine clearly had a lot of knowledge, experience and connections locally.
This really was a great way to spend an afternoon in Tangiers and I would recommend to anyone visiting!

Great day in Tangier - We truly enjoyed our time in Tangier, exploring the Medina and the souhks of the city. Booking our trip was easy and Karim was very attentive to our needs. Our guide, Yasmine, was lovely and very knowledgeable. She took us to a beautiful guest house with lush gardens for mint tea and cookies. She explained the history of the city and the mix of various European cultures that impacted the city. She led us to a terrific lunch spot as well and of course to the markets to experience and shop. A great day overall

For a close-up look at historic & cultural Tangier, choose this tour and you won’t be disappointed! - Our walking tour in Tangier was fantastic, with Majid as our guide. He was so knowledgeable and friendly, giving us a wealth of information and answering our many questions. He didn’t rush us one bit and was happy to pause so we could explore various areas and take photos. We would highly recommend this tour! Well done!

Our guide was very... - Our guide was very knowledgeable. Told us lots about the history of Tangier and took us to places that we probably wouldn’t have found on our own.
Bring a Friday lots of the shops were closed and we only got a glimpse of the daily market as many stalls weren’t open. But we saw plenty of other sights.

Charming & Knowledgable - The tour was fantastic, the reason for that was because the tour guide EL MLILI MOHAMED was knowledgeable, friendly and respectful person.
He and the driver Mr Soufian were so charming during the trip from picking us up until dropping us back at the hotel.
I highly recommend this agent to deal with for this specific tour.
