Best experience we could have ever asked for. This is a must on your bucket list - Where do I start with this review... Yousef met us at the ferry dock and introduced himself. We started on foot for the tour. He taught us so much about the culture and history of the city. We walked around the streets, the markets, he took us into the food markets so we could see where everyone buys their foods. We learned the farmers come down from the mountain twice a week to sell their food.. foods like nuts, fruits, fresh meats, breads, sweets, and so much more. I bought some authentic Morrocan leather shoes that are genuine leather and made right in town and are so comfortable. Yousef invited us into his home where we got to meet his wife and have authentic Morrocan tea and cookies. Yousef and Hind were incredibly kind and so welcoming. We continued the tour by car to see the remainder of the city to see where multiple other countries Kings have their homes. We then continued to the beach to ride camels overlooking the beach. This was an incredible experience and definitely the highlight of our 17 day vacation in Spain. If you don’t book this experience, then you are doing yourself a disservice. Book this trip now and you will not regret it. Thank you Yousef and Hind from the bottom of our hearts. Rebecca and Donovan Price- USA

Personal, well organized and interesting and entertaining - Yousseff was amazing! Everything about this tour was seamless and personal. From arranging the tour prior to our departure to our arrival at the port all the details were taken care of! Tangier is a beautiful city with so many different things to see and experience. For our group the highlights were riding the camels on the beach, meeting Yousseff’s family and visiting his home, and a delicious traditional meal!

Tangier Comes to Life with Youssef Chebaa! - Youssef brought Tangier to life for us! There is no way we can thank him enough for his kindness and ability to make the city magical for those who are fortunate enough to hire him. He is multi lingual and , as an author, is gifted with words. We learned so much about the city, the culture and history. We even met the mayor of Tangier - everyone seemed to know and greet him warmly. Youssef is filled with enthusiasm and clearly loves his city. I HIGHLY recommend engaging him as a guide and will be delighted to share this with anyone who is considering a visit to Morocco!

Homemade Introduction to Tangier! - Youssef is a warm and generous guide who gave me a wonderful introduction to the rich, diverse layers of his hometown! Such a special treat to be invited into his home and to be served mint tea with handmade treats by his kind wife, Hind. Do not hesitate to book!
