This is rather hard to describe...our tour was set to start at 9:00. The guide didn't show up. Around 9:30, we were able to contact the tour operator, who said he would be there in 5 minutes. However, when he arrived, he spoke with the guide for another tour group, who included us in their group. This guide was FABULOUS! He did a great job leading us through the souks and explaining the different sections. The tour we were included in was longer than we had originally scheduled, and we were sorry to have to leave before the end for an appointment at a hamman.

Great Experience!
