Our tour with Khalid was 5-star all the way. He brought us all around Marrakech, explained the history and culture, and was exceedingly patient with our questions and photo requests. We saw palaces, Mellah, tombs of kings, a college, the fondouks, Majorelle Garden, and of course, the Square and Souks. Khalid was professional and personably. He gave us a glimpse into how he grew up in the Medina. With Khalid we did not have to worry about the chaos of the Medina or Souks. I highly recommend.

Khalid was an amazing tour guide who tailored our visit to perfection. He was really knowledgeable and very friendly. We really appreciated his help in the souls where if you're not careful you can end up spending more than necessary. We ended the tour in Jamaa el fna with a lovely drink on a balcony. Highly recommended. Thankyou, Nik.
