    Omar and the walking tour guide were awesome. They shared the history on each of the places and allowed us ample time at each of the spots. We were also taken to a few shops to get essentials since our airline lost our bags. Highly recommend this tour!

    Hamid was absolutely awesome and fantastic. This is the ONLY WAY TO GO for a day your of Tangier and Hamid was the best of the best!! They picked me up at the ferry from Tarifa. He had a driver with personal cab. We went to a ton of great sights in a 4 hour period, he was extremely informative, he took great pictures, he was funny, friendly, engaging, and the driver was really nice too. We went to great beach and vista sights in addition to the Kasbah. It concluded with him taking me to a restaurant where I purchased a great lunch for an awesome price that was traditional Moroccan food. They then brought me back and made sure i got on ferry OK.

    My trip to Morocco wouldn't have been ANYTHING without this tour. It was the most comortable enriching experience you could have in a day.
