As a family this tour was brilliant, our guide listened to our needs and made sure our 2 children were happy and entertained. Marrakech is amazing and being able to take 2 young children to get a taste of the real Marrakech was worth it’s weight in gold.

Der Treffpunkt war ein wenig unglücklich bestimmt (rund 1 Stunde bis man sich gefunden hat). Der Rundgang war anschliessend spannend, der Guide sehr freundlich und kompetent. Jedoch doch eher ein Rundgang durch Marrakesch als Tourist denn als Einwohner. Hätte mehr über das Alltagsleben der lokalen Bevölkerung erwartet.

Wir waren zum ersten Mal in Marrakesch. Dank unserem freundlichen local guide haben wir eine gute Übersicht über die unmittelbare Umgebung, eine Orientierung in der Umgebung in der Medina, die nahe unserer Unterkunft war, erhalten. Außerdem viele Infos und Hinweise zum Thema Handeln und Einkaufen, Essen, dem Leben der Menschen vor Ort und auf Nachfrage Infos landeskundlicher Art.
