Good half day tour

Melanie_S, Apr 2024

A good half day tour the driver showed up in time took us to see the sites very interesting he dropped us back to our hotel

Find a different tour.

Linda_C, Apr 2024

The main reason we signed up for this tour was to visit the Marjelle Gardens as was the only place not walking distance from our Riad. Once we were on the trip, we were told we wouldn't be going there as tickets had to be purchased ahead of time. Not only were we not informed of that, but the photo advertising this tour was of the Marjelle Gardens. I was not able to get a refund, or even and apology from Viator.

Amazing tour

Mara_C, Apr 2024

Great tour guide with vast knowledge on the history of the local area including the Medina ( area for shopping ) Nour was extremely kind with me and my family and made us feel comfortable. When I travel to Marrakech again definitely will contact him.

Ibrahim our driver/guide is really hardworking and cheerful making sure we get the most of out of our trip! Also very considerate and flexible for ensuring we still can make it for the half day tour despite the delay in our arrival in Marrakech.

Worthwhile trip.

Joanne_R, Mar 2024

Enjoyable trip with Mustapha who was a very knowledgable guide. Only disappointment was the Saadian Tombs which was a long wait in a queue to see just one room.

Great guide in Marrakech

Sebastian_L, Mar 2024

Youssef was a very good and nice tour guide! He was very informative, gave us the best information about the city and its history, as well time to take pictures. I would definitely recommend this guide

Great way to see the city if you're tight on time

Lauren_P, Jan 2024

Great day. Knowledgeable guide. Amazing value. The ease of being brought from site to site by youssef was a great way to see the city in a short amount of time. Youssef was very pleasant and professional highly recommend him

Thank you Youssef

Sharon_S, Jan 2024

What a great way to start our holiday, Youssef was informative, knowledgeable and fun, he met us at our riad door (which was a good job as we got lost as soon as we left the door) and took us back again, we wish he could have been our guide for the whole holiday, thank you Youssef, you made us feel very safe and welcome in your country

Outstanding

Caitlin_B, Jan 2024

An amazing day. Our tour guide was very prompt and kept us informed throughout the whole trip. He knew so much about each site we visited and went out of his way to drive to other parts of the city so we could fully immerse ourself in the culture. Each site was stunning and having a tour guide with the knowledge of each site really made the experience. Would absolutely recommend to anyone visiting!

Welcoming experience!

Chutima_H, Dec 2023

Had a great experience with our day tour, our driver Mustapha was very friendly and helpful and really made us feel welcomed to Marrakesh as it was our first day, he provided very good information about all the locations and landmarks. Highly recommend if you are look for a private experience, with a driver that will drop you from one point to another and your explore and visit the landmarks by yourself.

Mustapha first class guide

Paul_S, Dec 2023

Excellent guide, very knowledgeable and easy to listen to. Spoke good English. Reassuringly calm in the manic traffic of marrakesh!

Good half day trip of Marrakech in a 4X4 SUV!

Eappan_B, Dec 2023

Mustapha was a great driver, took us around in a 4X4, to all places as listed in the itinerary also took us to the top of the Mall for a Marrakech City view. We will definitely recommend him and his tour company for all other tours. He also gave explanation to all the places we visited and it was fun!!

Very nice tour

Rafael_S, Dec 2023

The tour was excellent. He showed us the town with good explanations and the timing was all very calculated to see the sights.

Old & New town Marrakesh tour

Rochanne_E, Dec 2023

Enjoyable tour, we got to visit a variety of sites in both the old town & new town. The only aspect I’d improve is having the tour guide accompany us inside the sites

Straightforward way to see the city

Sam_B, Dec 2023

Youssef was our driver for the morning and acted as our unofficial guide to the city. He arrived promptly in a comfortable car and we were able to see all of the sites we expected- he substituted one of those advertised as it was a couple of minutes’ walk from our hotel (he pointed out where!) This was an easy way to explore and learn about some of the highlights of the city. We got an in depth view on some of the stops and also some tasters for things we might want to go back to. Don’t forget to book your Jardin Marjorelle ticket in advance as advised on the booking information.

Marrakech City Sights

Jeffrey_S, Nov 2023

Youssef was a great guide very well spoken in English and tailored the tour to our group's needs. we were able to see quite a few key Marrakech tourist stops in the 4 hour time frame
