Fun day in Morocco - This tour was fantastic! Karim was wonderful and took care of everything so we didn’t have to worry a thing. Communication leading up to the tour was great, he provided fantastic information on the history and culture of Morocco and made sure my food allergies were observed at the wonderful restaurant we ate at. Highly recommended Karim and this tour!!

Five Stars - Highly Recommended! - I was undecided about going to Tangier on a tour, but when I read the positive reviews, I decided to take a chance. I was not disappointed! Karim reached out almost immediately after I reserved the tour, and he was very helpful and wanted to be sure the tour met my husband's and my wishes about the tour. Majid was an amazing tour guide! He was a wealth of information about the country, the city, and the people. We had equal amounts driving and walking, and we felt that Majid took us to quality places. We had a Moroccan breakfast, a typical lunch (it was extra but worth it), and even had time to shop. The camel ride was a hoot as well. I recommend this to anyone wishing to do a day tour to Tangier, regardless of travel experience. They made it an enjoyable and memorable visit.

Outstanding trip to Morocco - Absolutely amazing experience. From the initial booking to your return trip back to Tarifa Karim takes care of every detail and makes sure your experience is exactly what YOU want. This was definitely the highlight of our trip and the memories will last a lifetime. We started with breakfast beachside, then a drive through the new city, camel rides on the beach, Hércules cave, a walking tour through the old Medina - he even surprised us with a snake charmer. We ended the day browsing through markets and then an authentic Moroccan lunch. It was an OUTSTANDING day. I would highly recommend Karim to all my family and friends and should we return, he will be who we contact!!!

A incredible adventure to Tangier! - Karim and Abu were both incredible! We were treated like kings the entire day, and got to visit all around Tangier. We got to ride camels by the beach, get a guided tour of Kasbah from a local, and see the markets. It was the trip of a lifetime, and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone who wants an adventure!

Incredible Walking Tour Through the Streets of Tangier - Radi and Karim did an excellent job in helping us experience the beauties of the city of Tangier! Radi was very knowledgeable about the history of the city and we learned so much just walking around the city with him. Our favorite part was visiting Perdicaris Park and Cap Spartel where we got to enjoy the weather with some tasty mint tea. We would highly recommend getting a tour with Radi and Karim if you ever get the chance to visit Tangier!

Fabulous Day trip to Tangier - I would definitely recommend Karim to anyone considering making a trip to Tangier. Pre-tour Karim was available for any questions helping us to prepare for the day. Upon our arrival he immediately made us feel very comfortable in his city. He clearly knew every corner of the city and seemed to know everyone we met. He was also very flexible during the day, allowing us to decide which sites we preferred to see. Also, the food was delicious. If we return to Morocco in the future we would definitely contact Karim.

Great way to experience a day of Morroccan history and culture in a day! - If you have 1 day available and want to experience what Morocco is all about I highly recommend this tour! Not only Karim and Majib did their absolute best to share their culture and heritage with us but they also helped us out 24/7 when our ferry cancelled our ticket due to technical issues! I seriously cannot recommend this tour enough and hope that your time in Morrocco is as good as ours was!
