Excellent tour and really great guide/driver Ayoub. He was very knowledgeable all along the drive itself explaining the history of the places we saw. We were able to spend as much time at each stop as we wanted, he was happy for us to go at our own pace.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that Ayoub made your tour such an enjoyable experience. His knowledge of Morocco’s history and his passion for sharing it with our guests are truly appreciated. We’re especially pleased that you enjoyed exploring at your own pace, as creating a relaxed and personalized experience is one of our top priorities. Thank you for your recommendation, and we look forward to welcoming you back to Morocco for another unforgettable journey.
Could not get into the palace, we recognize that wasn’t the driver/guide’s fault. Our driver/guide (Ayoub) just dropped us off at the sites without much explanation. He was a fantastic driver and his English was s good and easy to understand. We just wish he would have stayed with us for the free attractions instead of just being our driver.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you for your honest feedback—we truly appreciate it.
We’re glad to hear that you felt safe and comfortable with Ayoub and that his driving and communication met your expectations. At the same time, we understand your disappointment regarding the level of guidance at certain stops.
To clarify, some sites—especially official or restricted locations like the palace—do not allow guides to accompany visitors inside, and in certain areas, guiding is regulated or limited. That said, your expectation for more explanation and presence at accessible sites is completely valid.
Your comment is very valuable to us, and we will use it to further improve how we brief our guides to ensure a more engaging experience throughout the tour, not only during transportation.
Thank you again for your constructive feedback, and we hope to have the opportunity to provide you with an even more complete experience in the future.
Mousine was wonderful! Very accommodating, informative and interesting. Saw the highlights and took in the modern art museum.

We’re delighted to hear that you had a wonderful experience with Mousine. His accommodating approach and informative guidance are qualities we truly value, and we’re glad he made your tour both interesting and enjoyable.
It’s great to know you were able to see the highlights and also visit the modern art museum—such a unique addition to the experience.
We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you again for another memorable experience in Morocco!

Dear LEANNE, Thank you for sharing with us your lovely comment which signifies your total satisfaction with the service, hoping to see you again
Rabat was the last stop of my first Moroccan holiday. I truly enjoyed my brief time there and I love how different each city is from each other. In Rabat, I loved the Kasbah des Oudayas / Andalusian Gardens the most. I went on a private tour with my guide Youssef who was extremely kind, was a careful driver, answered all my queations, and had good recos for a local cafe and no frills fresh seafood!

Great day trip to visit a nice city not far from Casablanca, Amine is very knowledgeable, helpful and friendly throughout the road trip. We enjoyed a wonderful time.

Dear BRENDAN, Thank you for sharing with us your lovely comment which signifies your total satisfaction with the service, hoping to see you again soon for other experiences. Good day
This tour was not well organized.
I don’t think our driver was familiar with this area.He relied much on his friend who was in other van.Places were great to see.Amazing.Our guide was knowledgeable but didn’t finish the last part.
Also It was mixed with other people who has combined Casablanca with Rabat so our driver has to rush back to Casablanca.
Driver was nice but not much informative.
Overall not happy.

Dear MUKESHThank you for your feedback. While we're glad you enjoyed the sights and guide, we regret the issues with organization and timing. We’re addressing the coordination between drivers to avoid similar situations in the future. Your insights are invaluable, and we hope to welcome you back for a more seamless experience next time.
Very nice day spent in Rabat. The driver ( Youssef ) was very good, friendly and knowledgeable and the city looks lovely.

Dear RUI, Thank you for sharing with us your lovely comment which signifies your total satisfaction with the service, hoping to see you again soon for other experiences. Good day
Interesting but quick visit of the important sites. I would recommend going to Rabat on your own and finding a local guide.
Response from Host, Aug 2024
Dear LILY, Thank you for your feedback. I understand that you wanted a more in-depth exploration of Rabat. Our tour is designed to offer an overview of the major sites in a limited time. However, we can arrange bespoke tours with local guides for a more detailed experience. We would be delighted to help you plan this for your next visit.
This tour was not what was sold on the page and what I expected. The driver was really nice and welcoming. The guide Dino (his nickname he said to call him, can’t remember his name) even though really nice did not come with us on any of the site. He did give some information about the places in the car going from one to another but once arrived he would just drop us and give us 30mn to 1h depending of the place to visit on our own. We were each solo travelers and thankfully we were nice towards one another and stick together and helped one another. We were the only group that the guide just left us at a spot and left with the driver (we saw different groups at different timing doing same stops as us and the guide would go down with them and walk around with them and give them history along the way) this tour was basically a self guided tour with some information given when coming back in the car. When I paid, we were supposed to go see the royal Palace, we barely passed in front of it (okay we can’t go inside but then at least show it to us closer). We had to ask locals (thankfully i speack french so I could translate to the others) whenever we were lost or looking for something. He also just told us we would do a tour on the river without asking if we wanted and just said give us the money so we could go do that activity (yes it was nice but would have been fun to wait to see if everyone had the budget for that since it was not written in the activities we would have been doing). We walked on our own till the lighthouse to find out it was closed for him to then tell us while on the boat when questions asked that it has been closed since its not the season.
We walked and visited ourselves the market and same for every monument : the mausoleum of Mohamed V, the Hassan Tower, the Kasbah des Oudaias, the garden, the corniche!
At this point we could have paid for taxi to bring us around and did the tour ourselves or taken the fast train from Casablanca to Rabat on our own and then visites on our own or with audio guide.
They are nice but the experience is not what we paid for or what was sold to us since a guide normally should guide you around and not just leave you on your own and goes with the driver.

Dear ELIZABETH, thank you for sharing your comment with us, but you are the only one who left a bad comment, the whole group was satisfied with the service, next time please make a private booking.
Trip from Casablanca to Rabat was amazing and educational. Our knowledgeable guide Mohamed and kindly driver Amine made this trip even more worthwhile. Highly recommend!

Dear ZARA, Thank you for sharing with us your lovely comment which signifies your total satisfaction with the service, hoping to see you again soon for other experiences. Good day
although i understand doing this tour on a friday a lot of things would be closed, a disclaimer ahead of time would havebeen nice. We ended up skipping most of the destinations on the plan, skipped the palace and the kasbah and walked in a clearly improvised way all day. beautiful city, but we ended up going to casablanca a few hours earlier as we got bored...
Response from Host, Jan 2024
dear Pierre, thank you for sharing your comment with us, on Fridays he closes the Hassan tower for prayers and also the palace for prayers of the royal family, I will inform all the team for the next time to start the visit by these two points before closing, thank you once again
Knowledgeable English speaking, patient driver.
A day well spent visiting the must see places in Rabat in 6-7 hours.
Please add a message on the website or have the driver make sure for international travelers to carry their passports with them.
We couldn’t visit the palace since we didn’t carry our passports.

Dear MARTINA, thank you for sharing with us your lovely comment which signifies your total satisfaction with the service, hope to see you again soon for other experiences, have a good day
I was going to have a 14 hour layover in Casablanca and decided to book the “1 day - 2 city tour” (Casablanca and Rabat). I booked it just 7 hours prior to my arrival. The agent contacted me immediately and confirmed all the details of the tour. The appointed tour guide, Mr. Wahbi messaged me as soon as I arrived and confirmed our meeting point. I was greeted at the arrival gate by the nicest and most professional person - Mr. Wahbi who held the sign with my name on it. It was a short 1 minute walk to a car. The car (VW) was new, spacious and super clean. The driver Mr. Ilyass was well dressed professional, polite and courteous. I had asked them to take me to a cafe for a little breakfast and was immediately taken to a nice cafe nearby where I had a very nice Moroccan breakfast (suggested by Mr. Wahbi). All and any of my request were immediately fulfilled and questions answered. Mr. Wahbi spoke good English and provided all necessary comments along the way. We visited all the points and tourist attractions that were in the description of the tour and even more! I can truly say that it was one of the most pleasant experiences and tours I have ever taken. Morocco is now one of my favorite destination and I will definitely be back with my family and friends and book another tour with these guys. Thank you and keep up with the good work!

The tour was a quickie but we leanred a lot from our guide - I think his name was Hasim. He was very knowledgeable and gave us wonderful insights about the constitutional monarchy and everyday life of the common Moroccan. He was entertaining and professional at the same time.

Dear JOSSIE, thank you for sharing with us your lovely comment which signifies your total satisfaction with the service and for having loved the city, hope to see you again soon for other experiences, have a good day
This tour is essentially a private car service that takes you from place-to-place. Very little, to no information or commentary, including any applicable history or insight, is provided about the places you visit. I suspect the 'driver-guide' wasn't an officially licensed Moroccan tour guide. In addition, although the 'driver-guide' was very nice, personable, and punctual, his English comprehension was very poor. It was very difficult to communicate with him, even regarding simple topics, questions, or requests. He also used his mobile phone several times. In the end, this 'tour' was somewhat helpful to me, as I was able to get to the places I really wanted to see, without dealing with Uber/Bolt/Grab, etc., which can be half the battle in some places/cities.

dear KENNETH, thank you for sharing your comment with us, the driver who accompanied you accompanied and provided many visits to Rabat, but I will find out to understand where the problem comes from, thank you once again
Our day was filled with information and beautiful sights. Rabat was different from other cities we’ve seen in Morocco. It has wide streets with modern buildings, yet, history abounds. Our driver expertly navigated rush hour traffic and made us feel safe. He knew where to take us and was attentive to our needs. It was a lovely day.

C’était bien le guide très gentil mais ne connaissez pas bcp de l’histoire et à chaque endroit il m’a laissé seule pour visite les bâtiments donc c’était pas agréable
Response from Host, Mar 2024
Chère SAMMYA, merci d'avoir partagé avec nous votre commentaire, je vais traiter votre avis pour vois d'où vient l'erreur, merci encore une fois
Ich war alleiniger Teilnehmer. Es schien, als hätte der Guide (Nourredine) keine Zeit. Ich wurde im Laufschritt durch Rabat geführt, nur kurze Erklärungen errhalten (z.B.: im Mausoleum liegen drei Personen, ein König, sein Großvater und ein Onkel; schau dir das an, ich warte auf der anderen Seite des Komplexes wieder auf dich). Ein Museum war (angeblich) geschlossen, auf den Besuch der Medina habe ich dann verzichtet. Wir waren nach gut 4 Stunden wieder in Casablanca (nicht nach 7- 8 Stunden, wie angekündigt).
Response from Host, Feb 2024
Dear GUENTER, thank you for sharing with us your feedback, for what happened that's our fault we should inform you about having the passport with you, but for the mausoleum the main thing is Hassan tower that was unfinished by the Almohades , because the mausoleum is added lately not old as the walls and the tower, and your guide tried to do the visit as it should be , but up to your demand he turned you back to your Riad
Una bella gita a rabat la nostra guida azzedine una persona davvero gentile, ci ha parlato in italiano ed è riuscito a spiegarci i monumenti più importanti
