5.00We met Abdul near the cruise ship gate and walked all around the Casbah and Medina. The tour consisted of just my husband and me —and we had a very personalized and informative experience. Tangier did not disappoint and we thought our guide Abdul was the best !
Excellent

5.00Small hiccup at start in meeting guide but good communication. Very polite and well spoken gentleman, named Khalid. Great explanation of tour and route. History and background to Tangiers set scene nicely. Few hills and steps to negotiate but very manageable. Great little nuggets of information whilst walking through alleys and Medina. Cafe Baba for mint tea my favourite due to its history and famous visitors. A must do. American Litigation museum and Anglican church fabulous. 100% worth it. Thank you Khalid.
Highly recommend

5.00We had a great tour of the sites of Tangier with a very knowledgeable and personable guide (Abu Bakr). He tailored the experience to our interests and made sure that we were catered to. It was a treat to have such personalized attention. Would definitely recommend this experience
Absolutely perfect!

5.00Absolutely wonderful! Mr. Mohsin was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and endeared us to the local culture. We saw so much in a few short hours, we never would’ve accomplished this on our own. Just getting through the Medina was quite the experience. We were coming off a cruise ship and did not arrive as planned, but no worries. They were incredibly helpful and accommodating to our time schedule. Highly recommend!
Meriem was the perfect Tangier tour guide!

5.00Meriem was the perfect tour guide for my 4 hour city/old town tour of Tangier. She customized a well orchestrated array of places to visit with excellent commentary spoken in very good English for me to fully understand. She knew just all the right places and nooks to visit for great views and tasty foods. It was probably the best tour I’ve had so far while in Morocco!
Great day in Tangier

5.00You should definitely have a qualified and certified tour guide for the Tangier experience. That being said, we hit the proverbial jackpot with Ahmed. He absolutely made our day very special and memorable. His encyclopedic knowledge of Tangier’s history, both ancient and current was incredible, in addition to being an incredibly charming and fun guy to spend the day with. Unfortunately the Kasbah was closed because of the Eid-al-Adha holiday, but there was plenty to see and do. And we’ll definitely be back.
An unforgettable experience with Tangier Explorer

5.00An unforgettable experience with Tangier Explorer! Anas is an outstanding tour guide — knowledgeable, friendly, and truly passionate about the rich history and culture of Tangier. He made every stop on the tour come alive with stories, hidden gems, and personal insights you won’t find in any guidebook. His professionalism and warm personality made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. I highly recommend Tangier Explorer to anyone who wants to discover the real soul of the city. Thank you, Anas, for a memorable adventure!

5.00This private tour was AMAZING! Bilal was very professional and very knowledgeable, and made us feel very welcome in Tangier. We purchased a private tour, and we indeed got a private tour (no late-minute additions). Thank you Anas and Bilal for your excellent services!
Wonderful day

5.00This might have been my favorite excursion ever. I believe that the other 6 people in my group would agree. Anas took us to Kasbah and Medina in Tangier. He was so informative and entertaining. He made sure all of us were happy with the pace. We saw many areas that I don't think are standard on a tour. We stopped for hot mint tea, an amazing lunch, a discussion about spices and natural remedies and visited a beautiful textile shop. We intend to revisit Morocco and spend more time based upon Anas' introduction to his country.
