Extremely flexible and excellent communication. I stayed in touch from the first day I booked the tour till the day I actually did the tour. While I booked them because I thought their description was offering the most places, they still asked for a list of my place of interest and Yassine made sure I saw everything without rushing me through anything. I also asked them ti arrange for a volubilis trip and they arranged for that as well. This is a very responsible and receptive travel company. Book with confidence.

Highly recommended, we had two guides, Yassin covered the walking tour of the Medina, and Hamza the drive around town and the tour of the ramparts. The walking tour with Yassin was super informative and we were able to skip some parts that he recommended but we weren't interested in. Very professional, polite and just an overall great person! Hamza drove us around in style for the attractions outside the Medina, he was also great and the car was luxurious. Both guides spoke excellent English. If given the option, we would recommend doing the Medina tour in the morning, before it gets too hot and crowded.

🇫🇷 English: We spent an extraordinary day in Fez on May 28 thanks to two exceptional guides. In the morning, Yassin introduced us to the secrets of the Medina on foot in a very complete tour: the famous Al Quaraouiyine University, the Madrasa, leather tanneries, souks and much more. He knows the history of the city perfectly well and knows how to transmit it with passion. In the afternoon, we explored the outside of the Medina with Sufyan, a sincere, respectful and very professional young guide. In his private car we visited the Blue Gate, several magnificent views of the modern and ancient city, and completed the tour comfortably dropped off at our Riad. A perfect duo of visits to understand all facets of Fes. Thank you Yassin and Sufyan! 🇸🇦 العربية : قضينا يوماً رائعاً في مدينة فاس يم ٢٨ مايلي بفففففضل دلين سماحين ممانن افي الولة مشي داخل المدنة القدمة، حيث زرنا جامعة القروين، المدابغ الشهيرة واواوالأسووغوغيرها كا. كان اللشششردقققققئااً ووومئاً بالللششغففعرف، اولللفااللللمعرفااافافافففاالفففااامالفااماففاامافما� وفي فترة ما بعد الظهر، قمنا بجولة خارج المدينة القع سفن، شاب محترم وصادق وهائ. اصطحبنا بسيارته الى بااب بوجلو، وإنناظر باممية مذهلى فاسس ااالدي، واللم، ثم أوصماااماننإلى ااضنا. يوم متكامل من الثقافة والجمال والاحتراف. شكراً ياسين وسفيان! 🇬🇧 English: We had an incredible day in Fez on May 28 thanks to two wonderful guides.

Good communication, timely pick up and attentive your. Ysin was our guide and he shared a lot of good information about Fes with us on our tour. It was nice navigating the markets/Medina with a private guide. Much better than a group. Excellent day touring this beautiful city. Thank you.
