We truly hit gold with Khlafa! Tailoring our tour on the fly with just a quick conversation, he is the perfect combination of passionate knowledgeable guide and humorous lighthearted personality. He is so proud of his country, and to make it even better, he’s in the middle of his PhD in ecotour...

Excellent tour with a very educated guide! Khlafa is passionate about history, islam and Moroccan culture and is eager to make his clients a bit less ignorant by sharing his knowledge. Thank you for a meaningful and educative experience in Fez!

It was a great tour. Mr Khlafa was a perfect tour guide for us very knowledgeable of its history on city of Fes derived from the golden axed.. The mazed of the city with hundreds of alleys really confused me how people could easily find it's way. A big modern city for me planning to revisit soon..

Certainly a good guide and a good tour. But I consider the price through Tripadvisor (€88) too high.
