To start with, I was expecting a group of 8-12 backpackers in a mini-van / bus. Imagine my surprise when Abdel picked me up right next to my accomodation in a shiny new Volvo with leather seats and a sunroof and I found out there was just one other person on the tour for the day (who was lovely). Abdel was a fantastic guide, he speaks english, spanish, french and arabic, switching between them seemlessly and is genuinly passionate about the city he and his family have lived in for decades. He was polite, funny, engaging, knowledgeable, an excellent driver and took us to some great spots. His advice for lunch in Asilah (Casa Garcia) was absolutely spot on and just phenomenal. I had an amazing day out, ate incredible food, soaked up so much history and culture and would highly reccomend this tour to anyone!

Our guide, Rachid, was extremely knowledgeable and he planned our day perfectly, maximizing our time in Tangier and Asilah. We were all very impressed with his attention to details and how he catered to our needs and interests. There was a glitch at the start of the tour when we missed seeing him at the meeting point and the driver was late arriving, but Rachid made up for the rocky start as the day progressed. We highly recommend his services as a tour guide.

I just had the best day! Azouz was not only a great driver, but also so passionate about his country. He educated us on the different parts, traditions, and culture aspects of Morocco. We also went for the best lunch! (Not included, but still SO worth it!)
