Doing a full day private tour with Hamza was extremely dense with both information and fun activities. Walking through downtown Tangier and marketplaces with him, we felt like part of the "in" crowd - EVERYBODY knows Hamza, and we were well treated by everybody that we met. Highlights of the trip for us were the beautiful park overlooking the Mediterranean, the fish and vegetable markets, exploring the Jewish synagogues in the old town median, and the delightful and authentic lunch with live entertainment. If we were to change anything about the tour, I probably would have spent more time at the Caves of Hercules and done fewer shopping stops - but that is my own fault for not speaking up when Hamza asked if there was anything we'd want to do more or less of. I felt completely safe and comfortable at all times.

Our day in Tangier was simply fantastic! The entire organization was excellent - from booking to execution, everything went smoothly. We were contacted quickly after our booking, received our ferry tickets and all other important information. Everything went perfectly and stress-free. When we arrived in Tangier, we were warmly welcomed by Hamza. We then went on an exciting tour by car to various sights, which gave us an understanding of the beauty and culture of the city. The camels and the delicious lunch were an absolute highlight - authentic and incredibly tasty! All in all, it was an all-round successful day with a great guide and lots of unforgettable impressions. We can only recommend this tour!

Omar came to our hotel and brought us , back there . We had a good tour inside the old city , some stunning views of the port and the new part of the city as we saw how the locals live and work and even when they were preparing to pray. The old town has the local market and you can find everything, there . We made a stop in 2 shops and a restaurant . The meal was genuine from local recipes , everything fresh cooked and tasty , so don’t miss it . If you want a real local experience you should definitely choose it .

Radi our guide was fantastic. He was full of interesting facts about the areas we were looking at and was patient with our endless photo taking. We would never have seen all the interesting places we discovered without him. His English was excellent and he really looked after us and made us feel welcome. We would whole heartedly recommend a tour with him again.

This was a thorough and informative tour. Radi answered all of my questions and showed me parts of the city I would never have gone to on my own. I was able to see some local life that gave me an insight into how Moroccans live, like the communal oven. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who is coming to Tangier!
