We had a lovely afternoon with Medih, who took us around the Medina, and not only showed us the monumental spots but also had a lot to tell us about the local culture and traditions. He also took us to a great place for lunch at the end. It was very easy and comfortable to spend the day with him. Thankyou for a great time in Fes!
Mahdi was a very informed and friendly guide with a lot of deep local history. We enjoyed our time very much.
Madih is a great guide, the tour around Fes Medina with him was just perfect! I highly recommend taking it on the first day to get to know the history of Fes, the streets of Medina and hidden places that are hard to find on your own. As a person, who walked a bit around on the day before the tour, I can confirm that with the guide it was way more interesting and easier to navigate.
Fes is a bit of a maze so you need someone to show you around. Madih was a great guide and the price was excellent. we saw everything we really wanted to. the only thing I thought was strange was that he took us to very specific stalls and the prices were quite high/people weren't willing to negotiate prices as I had found that they would outside of Fes. so maybe he could be more transparent with why he chooses the stalls he does. I don't mind if they're his friends, etc but would be good to have an idea of that. otherwise very informative tour!
Madih was an amazing tour guide. I couldn't have managed to find half of the places that I wanted to see without his help, and he was super accommodating when I asked to see specific places. Having grown up in the Medina area, he is very knowledgeable on every single store and street, alongside a vast understanding of the history of Fes and Morocco.
Just the best experience in Morocco. We travelled through all of Morocco for 2 weeks but because of Madih’s tour and alle the insights, info and knowledge we had, we liked Fez the most. Highly recommend when you want to get true insight into Morocco’s culture and cuisine.
Madih took us on an amazing tour of Fez, showing us all the different areas with each of the famous trades, focussing in on elements we expressed interest in and surprising us with hidden gems and resting spots in-between the endless maze that is the Medina, which we absolutely loved. We had rented a car, so he even took us for a guide around the outskirts of the city with viewpoints and more specialist crafts, which was an unexpected and delightful bonus. We went on the travel around various points in Morocco and it was so easy to apply the information he gave us to understand those places better, plus he made great suggestions for places to visit, things to do and of course where to eat! 100% recommend!
We had a great day with Madih. He knows everything about Fez, the history of Morocco and he takes you to all the nice places, from the Jewish part to the Medina. We had the best Moroccan tea! We think it's the best way to get a good impression of the city. Thank you Madih!
Madhi is a wonderful tour guide in Fes. We were so lucky to travel with him. He knows everything about Old Medina and the Jewish district. He is very professional, well-informed and knows everybody in Fes. He explained us everything about the city and also about his country and geopolitics. Madhi is the best tour guide, not only in Fes, but in Morocco.
The guide was very kind, he went us around the medina and the souk, making us taste the typical local dishes and explain locak work also in Italian. We had a special request for lunch and he was able to accommodate us. A nice fresh sandwich with minced dromedary meat with species and bread at the moment, all in the heart of the souk. Thank you very much for everything. See you soon!
Madih’s tour was excellent, we had a lovely time in his company!! He has a lot of knowledge of the Medina as he grown up inside and know a lot of unique different places that it’s most used by locals as well as all the main tourist places. He took us to many special places that we loved!! He was very pleasant and attentive to all our questions and we really enjoy his company. We would certainly recommend him to anyone that want to have a great time and know more about Moroccan culture.
Amazing visit in Fes! Our guide was friendly, helpful and passionate about his home city. Always open to answering any questions and providing fascinating insight. Highly recommended!
Really nice tour. We saw everything of Fes! And the guide knows so much. Way better to explore the city this way. Enjoy your tour!
Madih helped us to make an amazing tour around Fez explaining us all the curiosities about this stunning place and suggesting typical facts and food. Fez's tour wouldn't be the same without him. Super recommended!
We had a really great day, picked up from our hotel at 10am and the tour carried on until 3pm. We went to all different parts of the city and learnt all the history then we went to a viewing point to see the tanneries which we didn’t need to pay any extra for. Our guide showed us the local cuisine, and helped us to make a dinner reservation at a very nice place.
It was an amazing experience. Madih, a very kind and cult guy. Explained me everything well and bring me to the best places in the medina. Suggest a lot for everyone!
Excellent tours and service with Morocco Desert Travels. Madhi was highly communicative from the moment I emailed. We did three tours with Madhi: Fes guided tour, Volubilis and Meknes, and Rabat trip from Fes with drop off in Casablanca. For each trip Madhi was punctual and always willing to provide local insights, as well as great customer service to make sure our needs were met. Overall highly recommend Madhi and Morocco Desert Travels.
We very much appreciated the visit given by Maadi. Maadi was excellent and introduced us to the history of Fez and its culture. We recommend it 100%. The visit was in English, but he speaks good French.
We advise 1000% Madhi He's great! Very good knowledge of Fez and clear explanations. Good communication with him You can trust him
Our guide took us through the entire medina of Fes in an impressive way, including hidden alleys off the beaten track. He effortlessly navigated the labyrinthine network of alleys and shared his extensive knowledge. He answered each of our questions with great expertise and exciting background information. In addition to the lively markets, we also explored important historical sites that gave us a deep insight into the history and culture of this fascinating city.
We enjoyed the tour in the Medina. The friendly Guide Madih has given a lot of explanation and showed us many beautiful places and let us taste different specialties. We ended tired but satisfied. Thanks Madih.
Madih has been an incredible guide! He showed us all about Fez and his explanations were great and they also helped us in the other medinas we visited. 100% recommendable!!
He was the ideal guide! He knew the most hidden places and told us about symbols, history, trade, everyday life in the area and diligently answered questions. The tour led through the various craft districts and markets, but also through quieter residential areas. There was always the opportunity to see and drink - for example, he took us to a really great tea house!:) After the tour we found our way around the Medina much better. We had a great day!
Excellent day with Madih, who adapted to our desires and requests always with a smile. Knows Fes perfectly, gives very good advice. I recommend, call him, you will benefit from things that you will have difficulty seeing alone.
A very pleasant visit to the old medina of Fez. Excellent, very kind guide and very good address advice. To recommend
Usually I don't leave comments, but Madih's performance is worth the effort :) I went with my family to the cultural city of Fèz, and this guide was able to give us an original experience with a very good quality/price ratio that defied all competition. Thank you Madih once again and I would not hesitate to call on you for an expedition to another city in Morocco. Kevin
Madi is a very good guide and he took me to unique and authentic places in and around Fes. He speaks English and French very well. I highly recommend it.
Wonderful ride. The guide is patient, helpful and perfectly aware of the best places. Cultural tour and more. The best way to immerse yourself in the Medina for a tourist.
Great tour, quiet, all the time for you. Felt more like walking around with an extra friend who knew the way, than a tour. Knew many historical facts, grew up in the old part.
Everything perfect, great guide! 😊 He took us to places we would never have been on our own. The tour lasted almost 4 hours, for the price of €10 I would say it is the best
Madi is a very kind person who grew up in the Medina and helps you discover every corner of this fascinating structure. Furthermore, it instructs you in knowledge about it.
