Karim is an excellent tour guide. His English is awesome! He took us to many beautiful places and all over the casbah. He seemed to know everyone, and everyone seemed to love him! From riding camels on the beach, to eating an authentic Moroccan snack, to rocking the casbah…. Karim is the perfect host!! And Abdul, his partner in crime, navigated the crazy traffic to get us where we were going safely. Can’t recommend these guys enough! We will be looking them up again on our next visit!!

We recently took a day trip to Tangier, and it was truly a highlight of our travels. From the very moment we booked, our guide, Karim, was fantastic—incredibly attentive, communicative, and committed to ensuring we had the best possible experience. He curated such a perfect day for us. We were able to experience it all: starting with a wonderful breakfast, followed by a scenic camel ride on the beach, and plenty of personalized stops tailored to our interests. Karim even added some delightful surprises along the way that made the day feel extra special. We loved walking through the bustling souks, where Karim’s guidance made navigating the vibrant, busy streets feel effortless and fun. The day concluded with a traditional lunch that was both delicious and deeply authentic—exactly the kind of experience we were hoping for. Karim went above and beyond in every way, ensuring that every detail was seamless and stress-free. If you are planning a trip to Tangier, I cannot recommend him enough! We left feeling so well-taken care of and so grateful for such a memorable adventure.
We had an amazing day with our guide Majid booked with Karim. Karim planned our day perfectly with all our demands. Majid was our tour guide, and he is the best guide we ever had. He made our day perfect with all his knowledge. Highly recommenced.
Very friendly and accommodating. Before the trip, reached out to gauge our interests and to help plan the perfect tour for the time we had. Great communication and had fantastic suggestions and information.
Although I wasn’t able to make my trip to Tangier because of unexpected ferry issues from Tarifa, I still wanted to leave a review for Karim because he was incredibly thoughtful and professional throughout the entire process. Before the trip, Karim stayed in close contact, confirmed all of our reservations, and worked with me to create a personalized itinerary for the day. He was kind, responsive, and clearly cared about making the experience special. Even though circumstances kept me from making the crossing, I truly appreciated his communication and effort, and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone planning a visit to Tangier. Thank you Karim for all you did!
We highly recommend this tour with the Patito Tours team. Karim reached out immediately after we booked and kept in touch until day of the the tour, offering suggestions and info on getting from Spain to Tangier (via Ferry). Our tour guide Hamza and driver Abdul were both exceptional. They treated us like family and showed us an authentic Tangier. Everyone we interacted with through Patito Tours was courteous and friendly. We had an amazing day that included seeing popular sites of old and new areas of Tangier; camel ride on beach; visited the caves; an authentic Moroccan lunch; and shopping in the markets of Medina.
We had an amazing day exploring Tangier with Jasmine as our guide. From the moment we met her, she was warm, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable about the city’s history, culture, and traditions. Jasmine guided us through the medina, pointing out hidden gems, local markets, and authentic shops. She shared fascinating stories about Tangier’s history and architecture, which made the experience much more meaningful. The pace of the tour was perfect—we never felt rushed and had plenty of time to enjoy each stop. Her recommendations for local food and crafts were excellent, and we really felt like we were seeing the real Tangier, not just the tourist spots. Jasmine made the day fun, informative, and completely stress-free. We left with wonderful memories and a much deeper appreciation for Tangier. If you’re visiting the city, a tour with Jasmine is an absolute must!
We had a wonderful day exploring Tangier with Jasmine as our guide. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience very enjoyable. The camel ride, lunch, and walk through the medina were all great, and Jasmine explained a lot about the culture and history of the city. A fantastic experience we’ll always remember.
My wife and I spent a wonderful day in Tangier with Jasmine as our guide. She was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, and she made the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish. Jasmine shared a lot about the history of the city and Moroccan traditions while showing us some amazing places. The camel ride and exploring the old medina were definitely some of our favorite moments. She also made sure we felt comfortable the whole time and answered all of our questions. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide.
We had a wonderful experience exploring Tangier thanks to Karim and his team. Karim, the tour operator, organized everything perfectly. The pickup at the port was seamless and the transportation was very comfortable. Our guide Jasmine was excellent—very friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about her city. She explained the history, culture, and daily life in Tangier in a way that made the tour both interesting and enjoyable. We would also like to thank Abdullah for his professional and safe driving during the tour. Everything ran smoothly thanks to Patito Tours and we would highly recommend them to anyone visiting Tangier.
My private tour organized by Karim and guided by Jasmine was absolutely outstanding from beginning to end. From the moment I booked, Karim ensured that communication was prompt, proactive, and incredibly detailed. Every step for getting through the Port of Tarifa and crossing over to Tangier was clearly explained, which made the entire process seamless and stress-free. When I arrived in Tangier, Jasmine was waiting for me with her driver right outside the port. From that first warm greeting, I knew I was in excellent hands. Jasmine is a truly lovely young woman who speaks about her city with pride, passion, and deep knowledge. Having grown up in the Medina, she offers an insider’s perspective that you simply can’t get from a typical tour. The experience was perfectly tailored to my interests. The camel ride along the beach was unforgettable — such a magical highlight of the day. Throughout the tour, it was clear how respected and well-known Jasmine is within the community. Everywhere we went, she was warmly greeted. Karim’s organization combined with Jasmine’s expertise and warmth created the perfect experience. I highly recommend booking with Karim and asking for Jasmine as your guide — you will not be disappointed!
I cannot recommend Karim and his wonderful guide Jasmine highly enough. From the first message, Karim was incredibly professional and attentive, making sure all logistics were handled smoothly. His instructions for navigating the Port of Tarifa and arriving in Tangier were crystal clear, which made the journey completely stress-free. On the Tangier side, Jasmine was waiting for me with a driver, ready to begin what turned out to be a truly memorable day. Jasmine’s love for her city shines through in everything she does. Because she grew up in the Medina, she brings authenticity and personal stories that make the experience feel genuine and immersive. The beach camel ride was such a special moment and something I will remember forever. The entire day felt relaxed, personalized, and thoughtfully planned. It was also clear how much Jasmine is respected by locals, which added an extra layer of authenticity to the tour. Karim runs a top-notch operation, and with Jasmine as your guide, you get the perfect combination of professionalism and heartfelt hospitality. An exceptional experience from start to finish!

We were given excellent instructions with our roundtrip tickets for the ferry from Tarifa and our guide met us at the port in Tangier. The process was simple enough and easy to follow with a passport check at the port of Tarifa and another on board the ferry. Once in Tangier, local history and culture was explained as we drove through the city, making stops along the way, then a delicious breakfast was provided at a local restaurant with a great selection of food to try. We then headed down to our camel ride along the beach, which was an interesting and unforgettable experience. The camels are very sweet. We then headed to the Casbah to learn more history and do some shopping in the Medina section. It was beautiful and amazing. We ended with an incredible lunch that will be tough to top (not included in the price of the tour). Delicious!! We were then dropped back at the port to head back on the ferry. Process is even simpler on the way back to Spain. Our guide, Jasmine, was such a joy..friendly, informative and a pleasure to be around. We really enjoyed our short visit to Tangier! Be certain to bring some cash for tipping and shopping.
Jasmine is an exceptional guide, fluent in many languages and very knowledgeable about Tangier’s history and best attractions! This tour was a fantastic experience, don’t miss it!
Jasmine was a great guide. This tour is a great way to see Tangier if you only have a day. Pickup at the port was easy. Highly recommend.
My time in Morocco was truly unforgettable, and I owe much of that to Karim and Tangier Patito Tours. The tour included memorable stops at the Caves of Hercules, Cap Spartel — where the Mediterranean meets the Atlantic — and the lush Parc Perdicaris. I even rode a camel along Achakkar Beach, with the ocean as a stunning backdrop. Along the way, we admired beautiful mosques and passed the King’s Palace, each stop thoughtfully chosen and enriched by Karim’s storytelling. Then came the walking portion through the Kasbah and Medina — and this is where the experience truly became something extraordinary. Walking beside Karim through the winding streets of the Kasbah felt like stepping into a living story. As a native of the Kasbah, he knows every hidden corridor by heart. He effortlessly guided our group through the maze-like alleys, opening doors to trusted artisans and local merchants we never would have found on our own. We sipped sweet mint tea that seemed to slow time, learned about Berber rugs and traditional oils, admired colorful scarves and explored vibrant souks alive with authentic Moroccan life. Every moment felt intentional, relaxed and deeply connected to tradition. It wasn’t just sightseeing — it was being welcomed into the heart of the city. Karim brings Morocco’s history, culture and spirit to life with genuine pride and warmth, giving depth and meaning to every place we explored. Through his storytelling, Tangier felt less like a stop on a map and more like a city rich with memory, character and heart. Karim is far more than a guide. He is a genuine cultural ambassador who transformed my visit into something lasting. By the end of my tour, Karim felt more like family. When I look back, it’s not just the sights I remember, but the sense of connection to the place and its people. If you want more than a typical tour — if you want to truly feel Tangier — choosing Karim and Tangier Patito Tours will be one of the best decisions you make. The warmth, knowledge, and authenticity turn a visit into an unforgettable experience.
