Great Tour!
Mohammed gave us a great tour around Tangier. He was knowledgeable and customized the tour to our interests. His English was excellent as well. The driver was very safe and courteous. He realized we were Jewish and made sure that we got to see the beautiful synagogues in the area. That was very special. We particularly enjoyed seeing the kindness to animals and tolerance of all religious there. My only complaint is that we didn’t have any menu items to choose from for lunch. As we did request, spicy Moroccan food on our form, needless to say, the CousCous was delicious. Would highly recommend!
Great Personal Service
We were met by Mohamed as we got off the ferry from Tarifa and escorted to a van with a driver. This was great because it enabled Mohamed to focus his attention on introducing us to Tangier. Mohamed pointed out some of the luxury celebrity housing on our way to our camel ride. It’;s a very touristy thing to do but I’m very glad I did it. It’s very different from riding a horse and the experience of the camel getting to its feet and then later getting back down is special. We were taken to breakfast where we had mint tea and camel cheese on some very good bread. Camel cheese is quite mild and very good. Mohamed gave us a thorough tour in the time we had. When it was time to go he escorted us through customs to the front of the ferry line. We were the first ones on for the return trip. April 2023
Absolutely fantastic!
We contacted Tangier Excursions after deciding we’d like to try an overnight stay in Morocco whilst on holiday in Spain. Moha responded immediately giving us loads of confidence, recommending what we should do and then very swiftly organised absolutely everything for us. We were met by a driver in a very smart Mercedes van at Tangier port, tour guides showed us around and we had a wonderful overnight stay in the blue city of Chechaouen. An amazing experience and so straight forward thanks to Moha! I’d highly recommend Tangier Excursions.
Wonderful Experience
Tangier Excursions is the consummate professional tour operator. Moha was very prompt, responding to all emails and taking care of the ferry tickets from Tarifa, and had a car waiting when we arrived, making everything simple. For the day-long tour, our guide was Mohamed and the gentleman was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable about the history of the country. We did a car tour in the morning (very nice) and a walking tour around the city in the afternoon. There were various stops for food and drinks, all of which were quite good. For first-time visitors to Morocco like ourselves, it opened our eyes to the beauty of the area. Thank you Moha! We will be back in Morocco some time again!.
