exciting cultural insights into the souks of Marrakesh - Our guide Omar led us through the souks of the Medina of Marrakesh for almost three hours, patiently answering all of our questions and helping us to haggle. He took our interests into account and led us to suitable traders that we would never have found otherwise. We felt very safe in his company - absolutely recommended.

Local Souk Tour - We had a great tour with Abdul! He was infinitely patient and generous with his time and knowledge. I would recommend this tour if you are interested in learning about the local makers of Moroccan products as well as culture and history. We enjoyed exploring and felt no pressure to buy anything, but were happy to buy products directly from the makers at fair prices. Thank so much for a great day.

Souk Tour - YaYa did a fabulous job of showing us around thru the souk. He showed us special stores which interested us and never encouraged us to buy anything. He was fun and very respectful. He also showed us unusual architectural alleys from the 11th and 16th centuries that we would never have known about without a guide. Having seen the souk WITH a guide, I'm very sure now that I would never explore it on my own. I would get very very lost...and I don't get lost easily. With a guide at your side, street vendors don't pressure you with their products. That'a a big plus!! It'a a great place to see. You MUST go. Great for photos!!

Great way to see the souks without the hassle. - We went for the pick up and drop off service. He and his driver picked us up on time. We stopped by a couple of landmarks on the way. Yaya took us to a few "higher end" proper shops after a bit of olive tasting and a coffee. The items were high quality and prices reasonable, we found a rug we're definitely going to buy for our house in Spain. We felt we'd seen enough of the established shops and Yaya took us into the more market-y area of the souk. This gave us the chance to get to grips with the prices. Then he took us to a HUGE fixed price supermarket for basically everything that can be found in the souks. The prices were reasonable and we bought a lot of souvenirs and smaller items here. We ran into him in there the next day when we were trying to find our way around the place again and even sorted is a driver to take us back to the hotel again even though we weren't on his tour that day. The taxi was reasonable at 100DH. All in all a great experience, hope to join him on his food tour next year.

Fantastic tour - Would highly recommend. Our tour guide Nourdine was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Marrakech is so beautiful! Saw parts of town that we wouldn't have seen without our guide. Got to stop off and taste olives, traditional mint tea and pastries, a visit to the secret garden and a Moroccan pharmacy. Strongly recommend.

Souk Tour - Ya Ya was a great guide. He took us to many sights that were of historical significance, not just the stores. He was valuable in the stores to keep the selling pressure reasonable. He gave us all the time we needed. Thanks Ya Ya.

Wonderful tour of souks - We really enjoyed our shopping tour of the Souks with our lovely guide Nourdine. He arrived at our hotel spot on time, was very welcoming and friendly. He then talked a lot about the history/culture of Marrakesh and was extremely knowledgable. We never felt rushed on the tour, Nourdine took the time to show us some great places to buy the things we were interested in. Overall a wonderful experience. We will be sure to book another tour with Nourdine when we come back to Marrakesh. Thank you!
