Knowledgeable and friendly guide, Mohammed, allowed us to go at our own pace. Easy to get lost, in the medina so being guided is good.

It wasn’t quite what we expected. There was too much merchandising. Trying to get us to buy things, which wasn’t our purpose. We just wanted to get oriented. He also was on his phone part of the time. He did give us good information, although we had heard some of it on other tours.
The promo said that there would be water available, but he didn’t have water except for himself.
Absolutely wonderful. Should not have been allowed to schedule so late in the day though. Several places were closed by the time the tour started. That was a little disappointing, but our guide was fantastic.

We had an amazing tour with Abdul in Fes. Being born and raised in the sold Town he is very knowledgeable about the history and culture of his city. He did a great job explaining the different types of craftsmanship in Fes and how it plays an important part in their lives. The tour was very organic and it had a nice flow to it. To us it felt like a friend was showing us around his city. We highly recommended this tour!!!

We really had great time. Our guide RASHID was perfect. He came on time, showed us everything, also wanted to extend the excursion , but unfortunately we didn't have more time. He took us to the most beautiful cultural places, then we visited some most important craft stores, since FEZ is most known for its crafts. This tour includes everything important you have to see and visit in this amazing city.
Rashid, thank you very much! Hope to see you soon !!!! A lot of hugs from Montenegrin and Serbian girls!!

Amazing tour. The Fes Medina is very overwhelming and a guide is required to get around. We really got a lot of steps in and saw amazing things. Our guide was really knowledgeable. There are a few sales stops along the way but they are not pushy.

My friend and I loved seeing the old Medina and all the different trades in it. Did the tour soon after arrival in Fez, and it helped make navigating the Old Medina less intimidating and more fun. Seeing the outer walls of the city was also really nice and definitely recommend adding it on. Our guide was amazing and very helpful. I got bit dizzy during the tour and the guide sat with us until we were ready to continue without being rushed.

We had a great tour with Rashid. He took us through the one million tiny alleyways in the medina. Without him, we would probably still be there. He showed us the artisans, explained what they did, explained customs and products and gave us a very good history of his fascinating city. Perhaps the best part of this tour was the trip to the art coop. We got to watch ceramics being made and painted, mosaic artists at work, and earned the processes for both. There is so much to learn and see in Fes and we felt that Rashid packed a huge amount into a half day tour. It was an outstanding experience. Thank you.

My guide Abdul arrived promptly at my hotel. I could not have asked for a better experience than the 4+ hours spent walking and learning about this wondrous and fascinating city. His knowledge far surpassed any guide I’ve ever encountered. The Medina and all within was covered with history and great detail to explaining the making of Fes. The tiles, wood, plaster, craftsmen, baker, carpets, Argan oils, spices, tannery, university, wood museum and so much more. You’re taken to specialty shops ie., carpets, spices, oils, and given ‘an informative pitch’ of their products with hopes they will sell something. Absolutely no pressure. I was not there to buy and made that clear but I appreciated the salesmanship! Be sure and look up⬆️
at all the beauty in the ceilings during your tour.
Abdul himself is a well traveled man with a love and passion for his work and very proud of his city in which he was born.
This tour was by far the best and well spent money ever.
Thank you Viator, Yah Yah and Abdul!

Seeing parts of the Medina that we would never have found on our own. Yahya was excellent at sharing information and answering our questions. We took a rest to have mint tea and cookies with the locals which felt special. The mosaics and the architecture of the mosque was beautiful. We chose this tour because we could start later in the afternoon after we arrived from Casablanca.
