The tour guide Abdel was...

Craig_F, Apr 2026

The tour guide Abdel was super knowledgeable and explained about the history of the Mellah and the two Jewish sites we visited. The tour then leaves that area and walks back to the main souks in the Medina. While the guide was great, I would have liked if he had explained that he was going to take us to three specific shops there. When we said we were tired and ready to head, he was super responsive and listened. I would have liked if the tour had stopped by at least the outside of a few other former synagogues in the area. But overall recommend the experience.

Our tour guide was...

Mitchell_F, Mar 2026

Our tour guide was knowledgeable and took his time with us… answered our questions. Only negative is that he spoke too softly at times and was difficult to hear especially with all the traffic of motor bikes coming through.

Great tour!!!

Raina_A, May 2025

We had Chachi as our tour guide and he was phenomenal!!!! This private tour was so informative and interesting and we definitely saw Jewish sights we wouldn’t have seen if not for Chachi. Afterwards we went to the Souk and Chachi took us around showing us various parts of Moroccan culture. We had a great time!!!

Jewish walking tour

R_S, Jun 2023

We thoroughly enjoyed and recommend the Jewish walking tour in Marakesh. Noura was well informed, very good company and made the whole experience meaningful and interesting

Jewish Marrakesh

Carole_C, Jan 2023

The synagogue was very interesting/ Nora is very knowledgeable. Nora took us to the Hamman to ensure our booking was sorted and we knew where it is for our forthcoming treatment. Unfortunately we felt the price was excessive for Jewish Marrakesh considering there was really very little to see, that is no way reflective of Nora’s ability.

Response from Host, Jan 2023

Silvano_s, Dec 2022

Very interesting. Guide was knowledgeable, her English is very good. She also re-organised the tour around my mobility issues giving me time to rest during a very interesting walking tour of the Mellah

A great morning spent learning about Marrakech's rich Jewish history with Ismail

Yotum_A, Nov 2022

Ismail's tour through Marrakech's Jewish Quarter was wonderfully informative, and it was a pleasure walking the ancient streets and alleyways with him. He was very kind, generous in sharing his time and knowledge, and after our tour, took time to show us around the souk as well.
