          Fantastic tour with fascinating commentary and explanation from Mouhssine who was a charming and extremely knowledgeable guide. Kept not only me, but also my teenage son captivated with the stories about what we were seeing and the rich history. Strongly recommend.

          Wonderful Tour, Definitely Recommend!
          The tour was wonderful! The architecture in the Medina was beautiful. Mouhssine was also very well informed and helped me understand how to bargain prices in the souks. He tailored the tour to my needs and even gave me a ride back to my hotel. He told me about the history of the old town and life in Marrakech.

          Exceptional tour
          Mouhsimme was an exceptional tour guide; smart, interesting, knowledgeable, personable, friendly and communicated beautifully before the tour. His command of English was great as well. Would highly recommend his services while in Marrakech.

          Wonderful trip to Merzouga with great driver / guide
          We had a wonderful sightseeing trip to the Dades Valley, the desert near Merzouga and then onto Fez (2 nights, 3 days). It was an action-packed trip with lots of interesting excursions and stops, under the excellent care of our guide / driver Abdul. He made sure all our needs were met, was attentive and a very secure driver. He speaks good English as well as French, so communicating with him was easy. Would highly recommend this guide / driver as well as the trip. Our only suggestion would be to do it in four days, as for three days it is quite packed in the winter time when the days are shorter. But overall, a really great trip.

          Incredible tour!
          Mouhssine was an incredible guide! Friendly, polite, knowledgeable and good company. Finding him was easy. He sent us a photo of himself a day in advance and we met in an easy location to find, near the Koutoubia mosque. It was our first day in Marrakesh and it really helped us to find our way around the city and settle in. Not only did Mouhssine explain the history of the sights, he also taught us a lot about the local culture - things we’d never have known without him. This made us really appreciate and respect the city and its wonderful people. His English was also very good. If you are considering a walking tour, stop right here and buy a tour with Mouhssine now! You won’t regret it.

          Must-do tour in Marrakech
          Our walking tour with Mouhssine was the highlight of our trip to Marrakech. Mouhssine has such a vast knowledge of the city and its people, and we found the tour very interesting and also entertaining. There was a lovely natural flow to the whole time, walking through different parts and seeing hidden gems. A trip to this city must start with this tour with Mouhssine - 100% recommended!

          An unexpected turn...
          We had a wonderful 4-dag excursion. Due to the exceptional weather conditions, we were unfortunately unable to follow the program and we were unable to reach our first stay. Our group of friends was divided into 2 waggons. Both drivers kept close telephone contact te absorb the unexpected situation as well as possible. This was quite a task, but Mohamed and Abdul did it brilliantly. Our special thanks go to Mohamed who provided us with accomodation in his own home. The hospitality of his family has made a huge impressiom on us. We are very grateful for this. Because of this coincidence we had a unique introduction to the real Berber life...we were lucky with our guide! The continuation of the excursion went perfectly.

          Memorable Walking Tour
          My friend and I recently visited Marrakesh and decided to arrange a tour of the Medina upon arrival. The Medina itself is a labyrinth, both daunting and thrilling to explore. Fortunately, the wonderful staff at our riad organized a last-minute tour with Mouhssine. My main hope was that this tour would help us feel more comfortable navigating the alleyways and teach us about the culture and norms of the Medina. What we received was so much more than I could have imagined. This experience will always hold a special place in my heart. Mouhssine is exceptionally charming, knowledgeable, and has a remarkable gift for making people feel at ease. Through engaging discussions and thoughtful debates, he gave us an enlightening glimpse into the rich history of Marrakesh and Islam, as well as a view of the city’s modern-day culture. We hadn’t expected to visit places like the Ben Youssef Madrasa or the Bahia Palace while on this tour -both stunningly beautiful sites, which were made even more memorable by Mouhssine’s commentary and historical insights. I unexpectedly found myself holding back tears in the Madrasa. As we effortlessly wound through the maze of streets, visiting souks and absorbing their histories, I felt deeply privileged to be part of this experience. The four hours flew by, and not once did it feel like a typical “tour.” Instead, it was as if we were catching up with an old friend. It’s clear that Mouhssine has a genuine love for Marrakesh’s heritage and wanted us to leave with that same admiration. Mission accomplished. If you’re looking to dive deeply into the culture and history of Marrakesh in a way that leaves a lasting impression, this tour is an absolute must.

          Brilliant walking tour!
          We absolutely loved our walking tour with Mouhssine - an unforgettable experience! He was so knowledgeable and felt like a pal by the end 😊. It was great seeing a mix of buildings and souks galore, and he pitched it perfectly. We enjoyed the stories and all the history, just brill. An excellent intro to Marrakech and would highly recommend! Thank you Mouhssine.

          We had a great time on this tour with our guide Rachid! He was very friendly and knowledgeable, and took us round the artisan areas of the souks to see the blacksmiths/woodworkers/leather workers which were great to see and which we probably wouldn’t have found ourselves! Overall worth doing if it is your first time in Marrakech

        Amazing, Amazing, Amazing. As a family off myself my son and his girlfriend, the trip was booked as a gift whilst on holiday by my wife, who booked before we left England. From pick up to drop off the day was jam packed with experience's that we will remember for ever. The stunning scenery, architecture, culture and facts are hard to explain until you experience it for yourself. The private trip was alot more intimate and Khalid our guide was brilliant, he definitely made the trip more memorable and was great throughout the whole day.
        On visiting Marrakech, you have to do this amazing trip and paying a little bit extra, for a special trip was well worth it for the memories. Will definitely book another trip with this company on our next visit.

        Mouhssine was a pleasure to meet and a wonderful tour guide. On the tour I had in April 2019, I got a deeper understanding of the history of the Saadian Tombs and Bahia Palace. He stopped and explained the various areas, sharing history and background. The Bahia Palace was incredible! Mouhssine was so kind to take pictures too.

        I did visit the Atlas mountains as well, and I'd highly recommend it. It is beautiful. I am sure, based on my other tour experience, Mouhssine would be a great guide and offer a wonderful experience.

        Highlight of our Marrakesh trip. Thank you to Abdel for being such a friendly and accommodating guide. Car seat for our little one and even videos to keep him entertained on the journey. Wear suitable footwear for the waterfall hike but definitely worth it and doable even with a 1 year old in a baby carrier and an 8 year old. The views whilst having our lunch at the Berber family house were breathtaking.

        Khalid is a fantastic guide, he will take you to the best places in morocco. And he will be available to give you information about culture and life in Moroccan villages. He is very kind and will give you time to enjoy your trip. You will be able to see the stunning Ourika waterfalls, see the beautiful Oukaimden valley and its mountains, then have lunch in a Berber house in Sifi Fars, see the Asni valley and finally enjoy the return journey on a road surrounded by stunning mountains , villages and vegetation. On the way back you will also make a stop at Tahmaout Valley. In short, an experience not to be missed!!

        This day trip to the Atlas Mountains was outstanding. I would hundred percent recommend this trip while in Morocco! Mousshine was our tour guide and he provided us with the best experience. He was incredibly friendly, engaging, and answered all of our questions. The hike to the waterfall was beautiful and after we enjoyed an authentic and homemade lunch with a Berber family. We are forever grateful for this amazing experience and appreciative of Mousshine’s guidance. I would highly recommend this trip when visiting Marrakesh!

        It was a very pleasant day: the guidance from the hotel to the starting point of the walk was very amusing. Abdou told a lot about the various important places on our journey there. Once there, Mohammed guided us through the Atlas Mountains to the Berber family, where we were welcomed with a very tasty meal (tajine with a salad and a bottle of water). During the walk we were also welcomed in a carpet weaving factory where we were offered a delicious mint tea.
        We saw incredibly beautiful landscapes during the walk and were guided along the paths at our pace.

        We thoroughly enjoyed it! This is highly recommended!!!

        Fantastic full day trip. We got to see so many different parts of the area, from the views and waterfall to eating at a Berber family home. The guide (Mohamed) was very friendly, knowledgeable and spoke many languages. The walk to the waterfall was challenging in places but worth it.

        We spent a fantastic day with Mouhssine in the Atlas mountain. Mouhssine picked us up in his comfortable SUV perfectly on time at the spot we had arranged. A beautiful early morning drive towards the Atlas mountains followed by stop in the Ourika Valley where we went on a small hike to the waterfalls. Make sure you have good footwear as you’ll be climbing across some rocks to be rewarded by wonderful views at the waterfalls. Make sure to stop at the cafe at the top for the cheap but so fresh and sweet orange juice. For the trek we were accompanied by Obama, a local guide, who also spoke perfect English. As did Mouhssine, who was fun to talk to and who shared his wealth of knowledge about Morocco. From Ourika valley we continued through some equally stunning scenery to a Berber village for a delicious home cooked lunch on the roof terrace with wonderful countryside views. From there we drove to the fourth valley, my personal highlight where we stopped at a viewpoint to look at the snow covered Atlas peaks. All and all a wonderful day and I can highly recommend Mouhssine as a guide for the four valleys tour and probably anywhere!
