Private Tours : Fez Cultural and Historical Tour with Guide and Driver

Terrible in every sense of the word. The guide was so not interested in explaining anything or even taking photos. He was on his phone most of the time and even ran a personal errand half way! He also only takes you to his friends shops and implies you have to buy something from them! Awful!

I honestly do not know how any tourist could visit Fes WITHOUT a tour guide. There are over 9,000 streets in Fes... you are bound to get lost and wander into unsafe territory. So if you do visit Fes and are in need of a tour guide... Abdelali is your guy! He came to our hotel and picked us up in an air conditioned car. From the start, he made note of the sights that we were most interested in seeing and mapped out a strong itinerary for 4-5 hours to make sure that we were able to see it all. We were very happy with the tour, especially considering we were more limited than usual because of Ramadan. But we really got to experience the city of Fes in a fairly short amount of time, and that's largely in part to the local knowledge and expertise of Abdelali. He's your man for Fes!

Het is een hele goede manier om in een korte tijd veel van Fez te zien. Met name in de medina is het fijn een gids erbij te hebben. Dan wordt je niet zo snel aangesproken door de verkopers. De gids was uitstekend en je kunt aangeven of je bepaalde dingen wilt zien. Werd op tijd in het hotel opgehaald en in overleg besloten mij na de tour af te zetten op een andere plek. Geen of weinig last gehad van opdringerige verkopers. Wel is het gebruikelijk bij de "tannery" en andere uitzichtpunten een kleinigheid aan de eigenaar te geven ( € 2,00).
