Visit medina and souks Marrakech - The guided tour of Mouhssine was a wonderful experience. He took us to places that we would not have seen on our own initiative, told enthusiastically and with knowledge. Highly recommended!

Walking Tour of the Medina and Souks - My wife and I had a great time with Mouhssine. He has deep knowledge about Morrocan history, culture and present day social political environment. Mouhssine is also a great resource for anything Morrocan, including interesting sights and restaurants. We highly recommend Mouhssine.

Half day walking tour - Brilliant
We had a tailor made tour that was perfect with Mouhssine.
He collected us from a different hotel to the one listed and was punctual. All sites are within walking distance and he was really informative. He knew the locals and how to control any vendors if approached. That being said everyone was extremely pleasant and friendly. Would recommend staying in more than one Morocco site as the country has so much to offer. We stayed in a hotel towards the Atlas mountains prior to Marrakech for 3 days.

The recipe for a great girls escape to Marrakesh - We had the most fantastic half day tour with Mouhssine and with the help of his brilliant network of drivers navigating the terrifying Marrakesh traffic! We learned so much from Mouhssine on the tour around the medina. The perfect mix between a bit of history, an insight into the Moroccan culture and a bit of shopping - Mouhssine was incredible with perfect English and immediately understood what my friend and I were looking for. His knowledge of the souk is encyclopaedic! I would recommend Mouhssine to anyone (and he went out of his way to ensure that we had a great stay even recommending drivers). We felt so safe as two females. Couldn’t recommend him highly enough!

Morning walk through Marrakech - Marrakech was brought to life by our guide Rachid. A thoroughly enjoyable morning walking the maze of streets off the main square. We learnt so much about Morrocos history & became comfortable in the colourful side streets. Would highly recommend as a must do for anyone starting their Marrakech adventure!
