Ahmed - an official Marrakesh guide - introduced us to the city on our first full day… and we enjoyed his tour and his company so much we asked him to introduce us to the Marrakesh food scene a couple of evenings later! And the second tour was every bit as good as the first. Ahmed took us to the food stalls, street vendors, and local cafes you’d never know about, explained the meaning of the meals, and the traditions that surround each of them (with a little politics and culture thrown in). We loved it - and our young teenage kids said it was the highlight of their trip (and if that’s not high praise I don’t know what is!) A terrific experience not to be missed.

Our family embarked on a culinary adventure in Marrakech with Ahmed as our guide, and it was truly a feast for the senses. Ahmed's passion for Moroccan cuisine was infectious, and his deep knowledge of local flavors and ingredients elevated our experience to new heights. From savoring aromatic tagines in hidden gems to indulging in mouthwatering street food delicacies, every bite was a delightful discovery. Ahmed expertly navigated us through bustling markets and quaint eateries, ensuring we sampled a diverse array of dishes that showcased the richness of Moroccan gastronomy. His warm hospitality and engaging storytelling added an extra layer of enjoyment to our culinary journey. Thanks to Ahmed, our food tour was not just a meal, but a cultural immersion that left us craving for more of Marrakech's culinary delights. Thank you Ahmes

A nice trip around the city. Had some dilicious Marrocan food and told us much about the city and history of Marrakech. We ate at places which were very special.
