We truly enjoyed our no shopping tour with Muhammed, who led us through both historical monuments and the dizzying alleys in the Medina. Muhammed is thoughtful and hospitable, and he shared with us his perspectives of Moroccan history and its place in both ancient and modern worlds. Even though it is perfectly safe to navigate the souks on our own, having Muhammed with us meant that we weren’t haggled and followed by illegal guides and shopkeepers. It made the experience more relaxed and enjoyable!!

We had Armine as our guide and he was really lovely. It was our last day in Morocco and a perfect way to finish our stay. I particularly liked the no shopping part rather it was very much a historical/cultural tour of Fes. Armine was very knowledgeable but more importantly it didn’t feel like we were being talked at all the time and felt like we had made a friend. Thanks so much Armine!

This was a wonderful and thoughtful tour. Mohammad took the time to explain the history of Fez, gave us great insight as to the daily lives of people in Morocco, and he was professional and kind. This was a cultural tour and we got to see all the beautiful sites of Fez. We saw a panoramic view of Fez, walked around the medina, saw the oldest University in the world, and got to learn that Fez founded the first mental health hospital in the world. We love to learn and this tour did not disappoint. It exceeded our expectations.
Most importantly, Mohammad was true to his word, this was NOT A SHOPPING TOUR. We appreciated this so much because my only criticism about Fez was the constant pushiness of unqualified tour guides. Mohammad was professional and focused on the history and culture and never once took us to a shop to purchase anything. He had the right pace when we walked around the city, which allowed me to take a crazy amount of photos and to take our time browsing the buildings and stores. He answered all of our questions and was patient with us when we wanted more time to explore a site. I highly recommend Mohammad. We felt safe, learned a lot, and most importantly, we felt like we made a new friend.
