“Tangier walking tour is a must!”
This was a great tour! We had a small group and our guide was extremely informative, also very willing and able to answer many questions we had on different aspects of Moroccan culture and history. The tour is a great opportunity to become familiar with parts of Tangier, to then explore in more detail later. The guide was also a native to Tangier and therefore really knew the city. We also appreciated the tea stop we had at Baba's. Highly recommended tour!

Rababe El Hammoumi is a wonderful guide. She does a great job explaining the history and culture of Tangier. I left the tour with a better understanding of Moroccan culture and she did a great job putting the context with everything we saw. Highly recommend!

“Tour un poco soso”
Tour por la parte antigua de Tánger, un poco soso. No me hice una idea de la ciudad de Tánger. Se ofrecieron algunos datos históricos, y otras generalidades. La guía correcta, agradable, sin más. Le faltaba un poco de gancho, más gracia, y hablar un poco más alto. No repetiría.

“Current and historical Tangier”
What a wonderful tour of this great ancient city, Once ruled by the foundations, and the Romans, and the Arabs.
And very recent times this Port city was given a facelift, thanks to the current ruling royal.

“Excellent guide”
A really lovely guide - so friendly, a great overview of history, life and culture in Tangier and absolutely fluent English. Tour is set at a lovely pace. We found so much we would never have found ourselves (the food market was great). Very highly recommended. (And unlike many other tours in Morocco no time on tour is spent trying to get you into shops to buy things/ sending you to certain restaurants for kick backs). A great professional tour with a wonderful guide.

“Great guide”
Rababe was a great guide. She explained a lot of the city's history and architecture and the significance of certain common decorations on homes, particularly related to the doorway. She also helped us find some delicious options around town including spice coffee - which I went back for everyday I was in town.
Highly recommended.

“Excellent Tour guide!”
We thoroughly enjoyed our last minute tour. We only booked 1½ beforehand. Best decision! Guide was most amusing and educational. Excellent English and understood our sense of humour. We visited places you would not see without a guide. Most interesting. Did not have to endure endless visits to shops where they hoped you would buy something you didn't want. Taken to a backstreet cafe Souzzi where we had the best chicken skewers. Thank you Mohammed.
