Great tour group and guide

Steve_V, Jan 2025
Connection with provider, hard to find after leaving cruise port (needed to ask may tour people) Van travel along coast was scenic and fantastic, Waling tour tour thru the Casba market area was great All around good service

Not what was advertised.

Karen_A, Dec 2024
The tour was to leave at 10 but left at 9. We went to place that gave a kickback to the guide. Not for mobility challenged. The tour was to drop back the ship and we were left a long distance and had to make our way back on our own.

Did not know it was going to be a 2 hour walking tour walking back to ship. All it said was ending where you were picked up

All round excellent

Excellent introduction to Tangier!

This was a great introduction to Tangier and the surrounding area. Our guide was knowledgeable and flexible and showed us much more than we had expected and explained a lot about the history of Tangier and the area. It was essentially a private tour and we were extremely happy with the guide and the time spent with him.

Tangier experience

Our first tour guide Nail, was impressive. Very knowledgeable and helped us avoid the crowds and chose a fabulous lunch restaurant! Be aware that all the tours take you to certain vendors! The afternoon out of town was beautiful but crowded, not the tour’s fault. Had fun on our camel ride!

Response from Host, Aug 2024

Thank you for the feedback! We're delighted Nail made your experience memorable with his insights . We are glad you enjoyed the camel ride despite the crowds. We look forward to hosting you on another adventure in Morocco!

Great Day in Tangier

Christina_A, Aug 2024
This was a fantastic excursion for us on our day in the port. Mohammad was a super knowledgeable and professional guide. He speaks many languages and is very cosmopolitan and can speak about anything you ask him! Our driver was also excellent and an amazing job getting us to many different locations around town before we had a walking tour in Medina. Mohammed again was super, and we always felt super safe and appreciated his flexibility working with us to help us go to a great restaurant for a delicious meal. Pro tips would be to bring cash to pay for everything, and dress appropriately to avoid unwanted attention.

Response from Host, Aug 2024

Thank you for your great review! We're glad you enjoyed your City Break Tangier tour. We hope to see you in Tangier again!

Don't attempt Tangier on your own!

Brian_A, Aug 2024
My sister referred my wife and I to this tour, and we were not disappointed. Our very small group (4) allowed us to travel in a van which provided us far easier access to sites than a tour bus. The tour operator was VERY communicative pre- and post-tour, and was quite amenable to our light itinerary change requests. Isham was a fantastic driver. I don't know how he maintained his cool with the traffic chaos. Mohammed was an amazing guide and really helped protect us from the various street vendors. How he didn't get lost in the medina is beyond me. Cap Spartel, while quite busy, was very pretty. The kasbah, medina, and legation were important to see to get a sense of Tangier. Mohammed was able to get us into a restaurant for a quick sample of local delicacies, and also got us to a store to buy Moroccan spices. All in all it was so worth doing a tour. There is no way I could have done this on my own.

Great experience!

Fatima_M, Sep 2023
We had a great time!! We were picked up by Omar from the Tangier Airport! Omar was so knowledgeable and fun! He took us to the Hercules Caves, we rode camels on the beach, we went to the light house, then off to the Medina! At the Medina we met with Majid!! Majid was awesome! He knew all the locals! He knew all the spots! We went through the souk, and all the way up to the Kasbah! So much history!! Majid arranged for us to be dropped off at the airport after we were done!

Magnifico paseo.

MARIA_A, Jan 2025
Ir siempre acompañados por un guía local. Es muy fácil perderse en la Medinas. Nuestro guía fue muy amable.

Response from Host, Jan 2025

Gracias por tu maravilloso comentario! Nos alegra mucho saber que disfrutaste del Tangier City Break con su recorrido panorámico y el paseo en camello. Contar con un guía local para explorar las medinas marca la diferencia, y nos encanta saber que nuestro guía hizo que tu experiencia fuera agradable e inolvidable. ¡Esperamos darte la bienvenida nuevamente pronto para más aventuras en Tánger!

Tangier een verrassende parel.

Een goede tour, werd uiteindelijk een prive tour, hebben de ‘must see’ van Tanger gezien. Een redelijk lange wandeling door de Kasbha, medina en Souke gedaan met veel informatie.
