    Moira_P, Nov 2025
    Our driver/guide, Mourad was outstanding! He communicated with us ahead of time, was extremely prompt and very friendly. We learned so much about Tangiers from him. The camel ride was incredible, set against the Atlantic Ocean on a beautiful beach. Nizar took us expertly through the Medina and showed us the beauty and the good places to shop and eat. Great experience! Love the surprises of Tangiers!

    Tour of Tangier (cruise passenger on Celebrity)

    Caroline_H, Jul 2025
    Do NOT take a tour with this company. We were very disappointed with the service we received. I initially booked a tour of Tangier for the two of us as it was the first time we were visiting this city on a Celebrity Cruise. I had requested a private tour with an english speaking guide to see the main attractions of the city. Instead we had a driver who spoke no english, and claimed to speak a little spanish and french, which we later found out was extremely limited. Additionally, rather than a private tour, we were placed a van with 5 other people who were also as disappointed as we were with the service. Once on the van, my husband requested the driver to provide an engish spekaing guide but this did not occur until 4.5 hours later when we were dropped off at a shopping area in Medina. By this point, we were all pretty frustrated from being driven around to various stops with no information being provided and limited communication with our driver. The stop at the Hercules caves was disappointing as well because we were informed there was an hour wait and we did not have time to enter. Instead we were led to the musuem which was crammed with people where it was difficult to even get around. The stops at Casbah and Cap Spartel had nice views but we had no guide to provide us with information on the importance of these points. We were also not taken to some of the other stops listed on the tour. The camel ride was equally as disappointing. We were taken to a beach where two individuals with a few camels were waiting to give us a 5 minute walk along the beach. Overall, the tour and experience promised by this tour operator was not at all what was advertised and was extremely disappointing. I will certainly be requesting a refund. My recommendation for those travelling to Tangier on Celebrity Cruises is to book the shore excursion with the cruise line as at least you will be guaranteed an english speaking guide and a more pleasurable experience of the city.

    Response from Host, Jul 2025

    "Dear Caroline We have proof that you attended the tour with your family, and our guide completed all the activities as planned. Despite this, you're trying to extort a refund by making false claims about the tour. Your behavior is unacceptable, and it's clear that you're trying to get the tour for free. Your threats to leave a negative review unless we refund your money are not going to work. We won't be intimidated by your attempts to blackmail us. We have evidence, including photos and videos, that you attended the tour and enjoyed the activities. We take pride in providing excellent service to our customers, and we won't let opportunistic behavior like yours go unchecked. We won't refund your money, and we expect you to respect our company's efforts. We've also informed Viator about your behavior, and we have documentation to support our claims. Sincerely, Nizar

    Very disappointing

    Courtney_L, Jul 2025
    Our driver for the outlying sites was friendly but spoke little English. He pointed out a few embassies and grand homes, but told us nothing of the local history and culture. The language barrier also meant that we didn’t realize that our entire time at Cap Spartel would be spent in the cafe drinking tea that no one wanted. Our camel ride was in a dirt lot above the beach, while we watched others enjoy the ride over the actual sand. Our driver skipped the Cave of Hercules because the line was too long by the time we arrived, directing us instead to a tourist trap faux cave full of tchotchkes. Back in the city, our new guide for the city sites spoke English but showed us nothing but a select few shops in the medina. He immediately dropped us off at a Moroccan restaurant for an hour, and then took us to vendors with whom he seemed to have an understanding. He seemed annoyed when we showed no interest in haggling for a small toy. He pointed out one small mosque that we happened to pass. Otherwise we learned nothing from him. By 3pm we had seen less than half of the sites on our itinerary. Not only did we miss out on the cave and the promised camel ride on the BEACH, but we also never got to see the Casbah, synagogue, church, or museum.

    Response from Host, Jul 2025

    Dear all, we regret that your experience was not satisfactory. We want to clarify that our driver and guide did their best to provide you with an enriching experience. However, we understand that the language barrier may have caused some difficulties. We want to emphasize that our service includes visits to iconic sites and cultural activities. Regarding the visit to the Cave of Hercules, we regret that the line was long, but our driver offered you an alternative to make the most of your time. 1- The cave was not included; you had to pay the ticket. 2- You sent a message to the Seaport and told them you didn't go on the tour to blackmail us into returning your money. If we don't refund the money, you will give us a negative comment. We have proof that you were on the tour, and we have also proven to Aviator that you were on the tour with a photo of you. You are the only customers who complain about everything. We had 12 tours staying because the cruise ship is very large, there was traffic jams from work. We have done our best to make the tour enjoyable and good, but you If you're using the tour for the same amount of time, do you want a refund? That's not done in Morocco? Please, when we work, we collect the money; we don't issue refunds. Our goal is to provide unforgettable experiences for our clients. Sincerely, Nizar Bk

    Cultural Delight

    WINNIEL_W, Jun 2025
    Our driver was good at pointing out the main city sites and he took us to the famous Cafe Hafa for tea and enjoy the breathtaking view. The camel ride was fun. We enjoyed the Medina walk very much. It was a lot walking but amazed by all the stores tucked in the narrow streets.

    Wonderful day in terrific Tangier

    Alan_H, Dec 2024
    (This was booked by me for a one day port call by the Island Princess cruise ship.) Good value, an excellent basic overview of Tangier over the course of one day. There is a lot of moving around, and a lot to see. I was the only one booked on this day so it was like a private car and driver, and guide to the city. Excellent work by the driver in providing WhatsApp directions on when/where to meet. Driver did an excellent job although his English was not a strong suit. (I speak French, so that certainly made things easier for me - YMMV). When we got to the Casbah - the real high point of the day for me - a young guide (Don Nizar) with excellent English (and French and Spanish!) took me through the city alleys. Because it was just me, he asked what I was most keen to see. I cook a lot, so we got to focus on food in the Socco: meat, olives, fruit, and (incredible) spice shops. There was a break for a traditional lunch including couscous and lamb tahini (fabulous) and afterward he took me to the superb Jewish Museum and Moshe Nahon synagogue. The only feedback I would provide would be - because the driver who took me around for the first part of the tour wasn’t a strong English speaker - for the tour company (Spartel) to send a short “here’s what to expect” document with an agenda for the day, the night before the excursion. That would have gone a long way to clear up my befuddlement during the first part of the morning. The day was just perfect and a real eye opening delight for this first time visitor! I can highly recommend. Now I really want to return for an extended time in Morocco to do a “deep dive”.

    Fond memories made in Tangier

    Our driver Hicham was waiting for us at the port. He showed us many wonderful sights in Tangier. My daughter's favorite part was the camel ride. Hicham is very professional and knowledgeable.
