Attention!! - You are always and continuously approached by someone who with extreme skill tries to create a bond and then accompanies you and advises you on your purchases, obviously it is a situation where the seller tries to kindly sell something sometimes tasteful or absolutely not but everything done with extreme grace. However, a place not to be visited alone, narrow and crowded streets. You can pay in euros

Stood up at the Medina - Guide was a no show. Unable to contact them despite trying multiple avenues (sms, via viator, etc). Waited for 30 minutes without hearing anything from the operator. Still waiting on confirmation of a refund for the tour. The Viator support team was super responsive, but ultimately it's not clear if I am out the money for this tour.
