The tour with Mohammed was exceptional because it offered an authentic local experience of Chefchaouen, steering clear of the typical tourist shops. He guided me through the quieter, residential areas, providing a genuine feel for the city's true character beyond the busy main streets. I highly recommend this tour for anyone seeking to discover the real Chefchaouen and appreciate its local charm

    Great walking tour to get to know the city!

    Emily_S, Jul 2025
    Walked around Chefchaouen, got to know hidden streets and other things we wouldn't see / know to look for.

    Great tour by a Chefchaouen local!

    Sharon_B, May 2025
    Mohamed was very friendly and catered the tour to me and my interests as the other person had cancelled due to illness. I love that he is originally from Chefchaouen and lives in the city so he is a true local. He took me to spots that are off the tourist path for the best view of Chefchaouen old city and for unique pictures in the Medina. The tour was about 1.5hr, he was willing to continue and take me to another local area but, because it was going to be a lot of walking up stairs, I decided to pass because I was hot and getting tired. We ended the tour at the grand square. Thank you Mohamed for a great tour and it was so nice to meet you!

    Good short and sweet , good information given of the town I recommend it if you have a busy trip schedule and you want to learn about the town

    Great tour that covers all the must-sees in Chefchouan

    Julian_S, Apr 2025
    Tour guide showed up on time to pick us up. We walked to the old town we were not driven but our hotel was close to the old town so it's a 5 minute walk. The tour guide was friendly, and knew everywhere to go, and looked at the pictures of all the places we wanted to see, and took us there for photos. He will customize the tour based on what you want. Great tour we all enjoyed it.

    A great tour and tour guide!

    DonnaGail_S, Mar 2025
    We arrived early afternoon and had already strolled the medina, so Mohamed took us on the edge of the Blue City and outside the medina. We saw alleyways we would never had ventured to without his guidance. We also walked up to the tower. We learned so much about the origins of the city. It was a great tour and we appreciate him show us areas outside of what we had already seen.

    Unforgettable time

    HEYAB_I, Mar 2025
    Unforgettable tour with excellent local perspectives while also tailoring to each persons needs (ie: my preference is to take photos from the local perspectives/ day to day, and to see the animals). I would HIGHLY recommend this tour. Mohammed was personable, understanding, and friendly. I'll never forget Chefchaouen and Mohammed!

    Response from Host, Mar 2025

    Thank you so much for your kind words! It was truly a pleasure showing you around Chefchaouen and tailoring the experience to your interests. I’m so happy to hear that you enjoyed the local perspectives, photography spots, and of course, the animals! Your recommendation means a lot to me. I hope to welcome you back someday for more unforgettable moments. Safe travels, and thanks again for your support!

    Mohamed did an excellent job of showing me around Chefchaouen. He knew lots of very picturesque spots in the Medina that I never would have found without him. Highly recommended. Thanks, Mohamed!

    Mohamed is a local, and with him we were able to see things we wouldn't have otherwise seen, including a community oven in use. Well worth it!

    Great tour if you love history

    Nancy_W, Sep 2024
    We enjoyed touring with Abdennour (Abdul) very much. He met us at Cafe Buena Vista and gave us a tour through the Medina. He is very knowledgeable about history and we got quite an education. It didn’t really feel like touring the Medina as a local would, which had been my desire. I believe the tour is generally given my Mohammed and his tour may be more what I was expecting.. It was a very long walk (about 9,000 steps), so we asked him to leave us in the big square so we could rest up while we had dinner. P.S. don’t eat at Restaurant Hicham in the square…it was terrible.

    Response from Host, Oct 2024

    Thank you

    Good Tour

    Lubaba_B, Jul 2024
    Mohamed was friendly. He showed us key places in Chefchaouen. I really enjoyed the tour; I just wish that more historical information had been provided to us about the city.

    Stop Scrolling and Book This Tour With Muhammad - He's the BEST!

    Matt_D, Jul 2024
    Our tour with Muhammad was truly one of the best experiences we had during our 13 day trip throughout Morocco. He was flexible with the start time of our tour and was quick to respond to any questions we had. As for the tour of Chefchaouen, he made us feel like we one of the locals providing us unique experiences unlike a traditional city tour. He went above and beyond introducing us to several off the beaten path city highlights and sharing local insights. As a life long Chefchaouen, he is well connected to many of the vendors and restaurants and made several recommendations that made our visit all the more fun. We had such a great experience with him, we asked if he would be willing to join us the next day as we planned on traveling to the mountains/waterfalls. We were incredbily fortunate that he was available as he joined us (we paid him for the day) and again provided an amazing experience inclusive his local insights and knowledge. I am happy to say we now have a friend in Chefchaouen - two final comments. 1) Go to Chafchaouen - the most beatiful city with wonderful/friendly people. 2) Book the tour with Muhammad. He is the best and will provide you/your family an experience that you will never forget.

    Great walking tour of Chefchaouen

    Christy_D, May 2024
    We really enjoyed our walking tour with Mohamed. He was friendly, personable and knew of lot of information about the city and surrounding area. He even helped us figure out where the market was for the next day and what restaurants to check out for local food. He showed us a lot of beautiful blue spots around the city and gave us a great orientation to be able to fall back on when on our own. We highly recommend this tour.

    Thank you

    Awesome experience in Chefchaouen!

    Sal_M, May 2024
    This tour with Mohamed was really a local experience. Mohamed was puntual, friendly and very knowledgeable about the history and local culture. Mohamed speaks very good English, so communication was not a problem. We followed the itinerary, but Mohamed was also flexible and made sure to show me what I was most interested to see. This was an awesome experience in Chefchaouen that I highly recommend.

    Response from Host, May 2024

    Great Guide

    Hani_A, Apr 2024
    Mohamed is a very pleasant and enthusiastic guide who takes pride in his town and its rich history. He went about our tour around the important Chefchaouen sites very professionally, with a smile, and the pace was reasonable.

    Response from Host, Apr 2024

    Thank you so

    A fun and informative tour with a local who's travelled the world and come back to share his love of Chefchaouen

    Tony_N, Feb 2024
    Mohamed was great with communication and very timely. He gave us a lovely tour around the city and took us to some nice places off the beaten path for tourists which made for some awesome photos and a lovely experience. He's also a very friendly guy, easy to talk to, and good conversation - dropping knowledge about the city, Morocco, history, and culture. Mohamed's a passionate guy who loves what he does and you can really feel it. Would definitely recommend.

    Response from Host, Feb 2024

    Thank you so much, was my pleasure to show you around my beautiful city

    I’m so glad I didn’t miss out on this…

    Reva_C, Jan 2024
    Mohamed was excellent! You get to tour the city like a local because he definitely knows the ins and outs of this beautiful city. He was on time to pick me up and walked at my pace throughout the tour. Trust me, there are A LOT of stairs and hills. I like that he tailors the experience to the person or group. Not only was he knowledgeable but also very engaging. I would definitely recommend his tour and not skipping out on this wonderful experience in such a lovely town. I will personally take it again if I’m ever back in Chefchaouen.

    The perfect excursion

    Vladimir_B, Jan 2024
    An excellent guide who is also a wonderful person guided me on a tour. Over the world, they have an impeccable reputation and high ratings. The guide's expertise and enthusiasm made the walk even better despite the rain in the early morning. Additionally, they're skilled photographers and know a lot about fashion. In addition, they're really good at English. I highly recommend taking a tour with this guide in Chefsheoen. You won't regret it!

    I had a great time in Chefchaouen. Muhammad is a great tour guide, really friendly and knowledgeable about the city. I came away with a much better understanding of, not just the city, but Morocco, along with lots of great ideas/insight for the rest of my trip.

    Genial! Desde el primer momento Mohammed es una persona que te hace sentir como en casa, un amigo en el que confiar. Nos ha mostrado todos los rincones mas bonitos de Chaouen y reservando a las 7:00pm nos ha permitido ir a ver la puesta de sol durante la visita. Recomendadisimo!

    Belle ballade dans Chefchaouen

    Dominique_F, Feb 2024
    Merci pour cette visite qui nous a permis de voir les points d’intérêt principaux de la ville. On a refait le trajet l’après-midi en suivant les grands axes et clairement sans guide on ne prend pas le même chemin ! Les petites attentions en route, eau, jus d’orange, étaient vraiment adorables.

    Inolvidable y único

    Roco_R, Aug 2023
    Chefchaouen es la ciudad más mágica en la que he estado nunca. Si tienes la suerte de tener como guía a Mohamed la experiencia es mucho más enriquecedora. Con él pasearás por sus preciosos callejones, disfrutarás de su mejor gastronomía, llegarás a sus lugares más secretos y tendrás las vistas panorámicas más hermosas de toda la ciudad. Es una experiencia única que te dejará enamorada de la ciudad, 100% recomendable. Además tendrás un guía atento, simpático y muy amable, que se adapta a cualquier necesidad del grupo.
