Traveler reviews
Fantastic day with walid ❤️
Walid picked us up right on time, even early in the morning. What really showed his character though: when one of our group got lost in the Medina before picking her up he immediately went out to find her. That was a really kind move and set the tone for the whole day and whole group like it ❤️ After that, Walid was brilliant. He’s super knowledgeable and explains everything like a podcast funny 🫶🏽🙌🏽interesting, and easy to follow. Casablanca itself is fantastic, and the Hassan II Mosque was 100% worth visiting. We also had lunch at a beautiful Italian restaurant and the food was excellent. Huge thanks as well to our driver Momo, who drove us carefully and safely all day in Casablanca traffic Highly recommend this tour if you want a guide who’s professional, human, and fun.
Casablanca
The experience was very beautiful; I highly recommend the guide (Ousama) and the driver (Mohamed), who were very attentive and kind.
Thank you, Yassine, for your attention and kindness. Greetings from Mexico.
Transfers, food, and the tour were incredible. Our guide Yassine was always very kind, addressing all our questions. The Mosque is truly impressive!!
long tour
long tour of 10 hours and very little to see in Casablanca except the Grand Mosque. To kill time - they give us 90 mins for lunch and the 90 mins on the beach. Can be easily reduced to 7 hours
Stay away from this one!
This was more a taxi service then a tour. The transportation was itselft wasn't great, from a comfort and higene perspective with temperature inside the bus reaching uncomfortable levels at time mostly as the driver seemed to be saving on petrol. There was very little information provided by the guide whi for 90% of the trip said nothing. The tour stopped in some very questionable areas, including the new medina markets which seemed to be a drug dealer and prostitution hotspot. The tour stopped of passengers at random areas with little information given as you'd expect from a guided tour.Additionally, the tour guide forces you into a restaurant for lunch, and then became extremely rude when decided to go elsewhere. I would advise anyone wanting a Marrakesh to Casablanca guided tour to avoid this one. Frankly cannot understand the rating it currently has.
