Lost in the forest of R’milat, the park flows almost into the waters of the strait and offers a breathtaking view of the sea. With a particular history, the place has retained its harmony with nature combining a mixed vegetation influenced by the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean.

Beautiful Tangier, Easy day trip - Professional, easy, comfortable, educational and fun -- a memorable day with Benamar showing us clean, beautiful Tangier. Benamar greeted us right at the ferry, listened to our interests and walked us right up to ferry at the end of a splendid day. Next time, we'll stay longer!

Wonderful Day in Tangiers - Achraf or Raffi, as we called him, gave us a wonderful day in Tangiers. Just perfect. We had never been there and had only one day there as we were on a cruise. Raffi picked us up on time, showed us the city, Hercules cave, the old town (Medina) and the Kasbah. Plus he took us to a great restaurant for lunch. . We had a wonderful driver, Mustafa, who was there when we were ready to leave and his vehicle was clean and air conditioned. Raffi gave us time alone, which iI find necessary and very enjoyable. His knowledge about Morocco and Tangiers was more than I could ever take in. I highly, highly, recommend using his services. He accommodated our needs and paid attention to our requests and answered all of our questions. Excellent guide.

Getting to know Tangier in 12 hours - What started out a little scrambled, from our side, turned out to be an amazing day. We started the tour late, but again, it was our fault. Achraf kept in contact with us, until we could actually meet up at the train station. From there on, everything went great. A quick ride to the old city of Tangier, drop off some luggage of a new found friend, at a hostel, and then it was into lunch. What a fabulous place and delicious food. Restaurant Vandalucia was such a hidden gem, in the very big, busy, and hot old town. Lots of walking, seeing places we had no idea were in Tangier. For example “The Casbah”, and yes, we rocked it! We were taken all around the island, saw the “The California” side of the city. Kings, Sheiks, and other dignitaries. Saw the beautiful parks, and where the Atlantic meets the Alboran Sea. The history, facts, and stories that Achraf shared were fascinating. A definite must for anyone traveling to Tangier, contact Achraf for a personal tour. Don’t miss out on the opportunity!

GREAT TANGIER, MOROCCO GUIDE - Benamar was an excellent Tangier, Morocco tour guide. I would highly recommend and use him again! Benamar explained the history of Morocco, assisted us in exploring multiple historic sites, took three of us to nice producer markets, and even assisted us in hailing a taxi to the airport. Benamar definitely made our Tangier day trip memorable.

Awesome Tour, helpful guide !!! - Achraf is an amazing guide. I found him through Omar, another travel guide. He gave a very detailed local history of Tangier, Moroccan culture, and Islamic tradition. He took the tour group to some amazing sites even Movie filming locations such as James Bond and Bourn Ultimatum. He explained some local traditions such as community Oven and showed us the actual thing. He has such deep fund of knowledge in terms of Moroccan history and culture. I did part of my Moroccan trip alone but was so happy to have his guidance to understand Tangier and Morocco in detail. At end of the trip, he gave me the app to use Uber Morocco that help me save a bunch of much money while visiting Morocco. Thank you Achraf !!!!! Highly recommended!!!!

One of a kind experience - The tour was a total fun, Ashraf is very knowledgeable and informative about his hometown, he was very patient, talkative, and know exactly where to take you, we started by visiting the medina, he was introducing everything from A to Z. Then the panoramic tour was breathtaking starting by visiting the meeting line of the med-Atlantic, the Hercules Caves and the cap Spartel (the northernmost point in Africa). The lunch was cheap and typical, Everything was fun during our day with Ashraf I would definitely recommend him for everyone
