Overall rating

(528 reviews)

We really liked it, good organization from the first minute. A bit of chaos at customs on the ferry but normal. The guide was very good, although he was running through the souk and it was hard to keep up with him, so people with little agility wouldn't be able to. The food was very good but they also go very fast and take it away from you before you have finished so another group can come in. Summary: to get to know Tangier in a short time it's very good, the price of the excursion was also very good, I would do it again.

This trip was great. Said took all the hassle out of trying to book a trip to Tangier from Marbella. The ferry process was made very easy and communication was excellent between both him and the driver, answering any questions we had. The day trip itself was amazing, from the tourist hot spots, camel riding, kasbah and medina. Also had a taste of traditional Moroccan food and stores. Highly recommend!

We really enjoyed the trip. I only recommend not buying in the places they take you to, because during our free time we realized that we paid almost double for the same thing. Be very careful in the “pharmacy”. Otherwise, great!!!!

I thought we spent too much time on the streets shopping. We missed more of the bus ride.

Tangier is beautiful. It was really exotic and the guide Rachid was excellent.
