    Marit_B, Sep 2025
    Our guide did not follow the route indicated on the description of the tour. We went to the ruins and Chellah and then walked through the city streets - we never went by the water. We never saw the medina and we would have loved to. We came home and re-read the description of the tour and realized we never saw half of the things listed.

    Awesome! We learned so much about Rabat! ❤️

    Zalaikha_T, Aug 2025
    My sister and I had an amazing day! Our guide was so knowledgeable and passionate about Morocco/Rabat. He made us feel comfortable and relaxed. We learned so much and we also had fun too! I would highly recommend this tour! It was totally worth it! God bless you!

    Our guide Salik was outstanding . We were delayed from the airport but he graciously accommodated the change in schedule, he has a good command of the English language, an excellent photographer. All our pictures came out great. He was also flexible with our activities and worked around the preferred sites we wanted to see. Best part is, he brought us to a restaurant serving great mint tea which we sipped while looking at scenic view of the coast! Definitely made out Morocco visit memorable!!!

    Blaine_B, Mar 2025
    My brother and I took a guided tour of Rabat with Mohamed and it was an amazing experience of the city. We saw and learned about key sites like the Hassan Tower and Mohammad V mausoleum, Kasbah des Oudaias and Andalusian Gardens, and the Medina. Each stop on our tour Mohamed provided a wealth of historical information on the site and its relevance and importance today. We asked a lot of questions too and Mohamed answered all our questions happily and with great additional details. His tour was engaging and exciting, he also added stories or details about daily life in Rabat and Morocco so we could have a full picture of the city in the past and today. We really enjoyed our time on the tour and it was well paced, we did not feel rushed our tired by all the stops and information. Mohamed was particularly knowledgeable about the various Moroccan dynasties that shaped the city and their impacts in all the historic sites we stopped at. We loved the tour and would highly recommend for those spending their first days in Rabat to understand key places and activities in the city!

    Franchesca_W, Mar 2025
    We had Mohamed as out tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and spoke great English. He was very patient and answered all of our questions. Would definitely recommend both this tour and him as a guide.

    Great walking tour featuring history, culture and beauty of Rabat

    KapBill_P, Mar 2025
    Excellent experience thanks to our friendly knowledgeable guide, Mohammed. We arrived early for a 2 week tour of Morocco and I had this walking tour planned as an introduction to Rabat- it was a perfect morning walk despite some light rain to see the beauty of Rabat, before hardly any crowds were upon the city. Mohammad was so friendly, smiling as he warmly greeted us and friends we encountered along the way, excellent English, energetic to share his country’s many cultural sites and progressive attitudes . We learned so much within a few hours. Rabat can be characterized as a “ white city”. It is a beautiful city with a scale of buildings 5-6 stories high, not dominated by high rises. We were so impressed by the beautiful Mausoleum of Mohammed V, the new developments along the river, the Kasbah with its charming houses, perched high on the edge of the Atlantic , the old Portuguese fortress defending it against pirates. Then a walk through the Medina is great fun and a saunter in the lovely Andalusian garden. On the cultural side, we learned that the King is highly respected and loved, Morocco has the 2 nd longest monarchy in history (Japan the first!); that women’s rights and achievements are impressive as women have a access to education and work in professional and political roles , it seems there exists a progressive interpretation of Muslim religion as it affects civil life . It was a privilege to have the opportunity to be able to listen and talk with a guide who was so knowledgeable, educated and genuine in his insights into contemporary life as well as gain the the historical perspective.

    Informative and a very pleasant walk around a beautiful city

    Mandy_W, Feb 2025
    This was a wonderful way to see the top sites of Rabat and to learn about the important history and sites. Our guide Mohammed was so knowledgeable and thorough in his details. He took us everywhere from the mausoleum to the Kasbah and medina. It was a great way to spend the morning soaking up the beautiful city. Rabat is not to be overlooked and has so much beautiful art to enjoy. Our guide even recommended a great spot for lunch at the end. We really enjoyed our time with him.

    Great Intro to Rabat

    Bruce_L, Jan 2025
    We arrived in Rabat a day before we start a 10 day tour of Morocco. Even though our tour will include the historic area, we wanted to get an advance look so that we could spend more time visiting this area. It was perfect. Our guide, Hamid, was excellent and we were able to visit the Mausoleum, the Kasbah and the Medina at a leisurely pace. Our guide was particularly helpful in adapting the tour to our needs so we use taxi’s to get between the various sights (our expense) but the cost was not the issue. We ended up being able to see more within the allotted 3 hour tour.

    Response from Host, Mar 2025

    Thank you so much for taking the time to share your wonderful experience! We are delighted to hear that your tour of Rabat was the perfect introduction to your Moroccan adventure. Exploring the city's historic gems at a relaxed and personalized pace is exactly what we strive to offer, and we're thrilled that Hamid was able to tailor the tour to your needs. Your kind words about his flexibility and expertise mean the world to us, as we believe that every traveler deserves an experience that is seamless, insightful, and truly unforgettable. It’s great to know that utilizing taxis allowed you to maximize your time and see even more of Rabat’s rich heritage. We hope the rest of your 10-day journey through Morocco was just as incredible, and we'd be honored to welcome you back for more unforgettable discoveries. Thank you again for choosing us, and safe travels!

    Rabat; our new favorite city

    Katherine_L, Jan 2025
    This was a WONDERFUL walking tour. Mohamed was very knowledgeable, kind and welcoming of us to his city. We had a beautiful day walking this very well thought out tour and even shared a meal after to continue our conversations. I wholeheartedly recommend this tour and I hope you get to share this experience with Mohamed as your guide.

    Hamid was a very knowledgeable guide that led on a great tour. Highly recommend for anyone looking to visit the main sites of Rabat.

    Not worth. Don’t do late afternoon times

    Sumer_M, Nov 2024
    This should not be advertised as walking tour. Also do not take any time 4 pm or later. Mausoleum to Kasbah is not a walk any regular person could do First we were picked by guide from Marriott on time in a taxi. Went to mausoleum first because it closed by 6. Entire time cab driver was on a radio talk show and despite me asking guide driver would not turn it down From mausoleum to town is a very long walk. I asked to pay for cab as it’s on other side of river and Andolusian gardens close early. One way guide was on phone the entire time and it took like 25 minutes in taxi with traffic. Learnt nothing about what we passed by Gardens the guide walked us through in like 4 minutes. Then was on phone off and on as he brought us to cafe and got on his phone. As we went around he was on off on phone Once after the call he said he is asking what’s for dinner. I do not think we got anywhere close to 106 US dollars we paid for 2 people At the end aftee we Walk through the medina we opted to take shorter route though he was willing to show us more. At the end he declined cab fare from mausoleum to andulecian garden. Not worth private trip we paid for.

    Wonderful Tour

    A memorable afternoon

    David_W, Sep 2024
    Elias contacted us before we met to make sure we were comfortable with getting to the meeting point. He was knowledgeable throughout, even when pressed with historical questions or architectural details. His English was superb, but perhaps most of all, he was personable and clearly took great pride in his work
