Highly recommend - This was a great day trip to Tangier. Omar met us on arrival and made us feel very welcome. We saw all the sights of Tangier without feeling rushed. He recommended a great restaurant which was very family friendly. He took us to the Medina and the camel rides which my children enjoyed.

Memorable journey in Tanger Morocco - Our Tour was well organized by the owner Omar the day before with the Ferry Tickets that were sent to us to cross from Tarifa to Tanger. When we arrived, we were welcomed by Hamza and his driver.
They took us around in the different part of Tanger and we did an incredible Camel ride on the beach. Hamza provided very interesting information on the history of Morocco and Tanger. Everywhere we went everyone knew him. We felt safe all day and at no time we were pressure to buy in any stores we entered into.
We highly recommend this Tour for there professionalism, attention to what we wanted to see and dedication to their work.
A great Choukran bezaf to Hamza, his driver and Omar for this wonderful journey in Tanger.

Amazing day in Morocco - highly recommend this tour - Amazing trip!! Omar was amazing. We had a private tour for six (three adults and three teenagers) and it was one of the top highlights of our trip to Spain. Omar made it very easy for us, and we got to see several incredible spots. Riding camels was a blast, traditional Moroccan lunch, many beautiful sights and views, and market shopping. We would definitely recommend this trip to others and plan to book Omar again the next time we come back.

Abu and Tangier were wonderful - Abu was a great guide and asked us if we want to see each of the attractions. He was knowledgeable about the city and the country. The horseback riding and the market were the best parts. Abu even arranged for an anniversary cake at lunch. This was our favorite excursion of our six week trip around the Iberian peninsula.

Fun…But Beware - Saw some beautiful sights and really enjoyed the camel ride, Kaaba and medina, but we were not expecting the high pressure sales stops along the way that really put a negative spin on the experience. A guided tour of Tangier is the way to go, but when you’re paying a good price for the tour, you shouldn’t be stuck in several “sales pitch” stops along the way…

Differences between what is offered and delivered - Before discussing the tour, it is important to discuss the differences between what Tripadvisor offers on its website and what the professor hired by TripAdvisor delivers. When booking the tour, the page gave the option to choose the schedule and I selected for 9 am. It gave the option to ask to be picked up from the hotel (although they limited the hotels where you could take this option). I selected a hotel where you could schedule to pick us up even though it was a little more expensive. The day before the tour departed I contacted the operator (less than 24 hours before departure) because I had not received a message from him. He told me that the tour would not be at 9, that it could be or at 8 or 12, not at 9 and that they would not come by us to the hotel. These differences do not know if they are Tripadvisor's or the operator's problem, but they affect poor customer service.
Now let's talk about the tour. After contacting the operator, he told me he would send me the ferry tickets. The day before the tour, at 9pm, we still didn’t get ferry tickets, which helped keep stress high. In the end, late at night, they finally sent the tickets. Focusing on the tour itself, the guides, Abdul and Ahmed were friendly and explained the tour very well, but what was delivered was very different from what was offered. For starters, Abdul was late and for a moment we doubted if we would wait. Later, at the Medina, Ahmed was more concerned with taking us to the sponsors’ stores (I guess with the intention of encouraging shopping) than taking us to the most important parts of the Medina. On the other hand, the tour was in Spanish, but Ahmed’s Spanish is not easy to understand. All this leaves a bitter taste about the tour.
In short, despite the above, was the tour worth it? I would have my doubts about recommending it, but I would be inclined to say no. The main reason is the cost and differences between what is promised vs. what is delivered. Definitely, because of the shortcomings of the service received, it is not a tour worth 200 euros per person. The Medina can be toured on its own or, in any case, hire a tour in Tarifa for half the price.
