I told Mohammed that I considered him the godfather of the medina -- he seemed to know everyone we encountered, and did small things for many of the people who needed help. At the same time, he provided a fabulous tour of the medina, with all the highlights we wanted to see, wonderful shops, the tannery, etc. His explanations of the history were terrific.Because of not enough time, Fez was only the city for transfer and a selected place to start with the desert tour to Marrakesh in my itinerary.

Because of not enough time, Fez was only the city for transfer and a selected place to start with the desert tour to Marrakesh in my itinerary. I didn’t expect to have chance to meet Mohammed and Aladdin this great family especially when I just randomly booked their Riad before arrived in Fez. I originally planned to just wander in old medina to get a quick view of Fez as arrived in the late afternoon. However, it’s just great to have Mohammed as my tour guide to know more about Fez too. I was feeling safe when walking with Mohammed in Fez medina even if it’s famous for getting lost. Mohammed is so nice and knowledgeable, through his guidance, I know more about the history, culture and customs of Fez. And he took me to the best spots of Fez and also those places where can show how carpets / leathers / argan oil made to enrich my knowledge. He definitely is a great guide to have all my questions answered, thanks so much Mohammed and Aladdin for everything. And I highly recommend booking with Mohammed for the Fez experience.Mohammed took us on a guided walking tour through Fez. He knew everywhere to go, was very kind, and friendly. He brought us to lots of different places with spectacular views. Felt very safe for the entire tour. He showed us the best places to take pictures and purchase items. I 100% recommend bo...

Mohammed took us to some of the best parts of one of the worlds largest and oldest Medinas. We visited artisan workshops, including at the tannery, textile area, cosmetics and spices, ceramics and copper workshops in and outside the Medina, but it was possible not to buy and everyone we met was very respectful and happy to show off their craft. Mohammed is a lovely man and you will be in safe hands with him.Muhammed is the best guide you can ask for to bring you around Fes. We did a walking tour around the Medina, he knows where to go, and shares many interesting facts throughout the tour. Super friendly guy, and we felt very safe when he brought us around

My partner and I had the privilege of doing two half day tours with Mohammed during our stay in Fes. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience- he made navigating the Medina relaxing and made sure to give us a taste of everything that Fes has to offer both inside and out of the Medina. We never felt rushed and had plenty of opportunities to ask questions, take photos, and (of course) shop!
