Highly Recommended Tour in Fez

Nicole_Q, Jan 2026

I travelled to Fez with my husband for our honeymoon, and Youssef made sure our tour was absolutely amazing. He knows every corner of the Medina and shared so much interesting and important information with us. We truly enjoyed his company, and he also gave us great recommendations. We highly recommend him!!

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Was my pleasure sharing with you the history of my city. Thank you

Amazing walking tour through the media of Fez

irism318, Sept 2025

We had a really nice and interesting tour throught the Medina of Fez. Youssef showed us places we would not have found ourselves and provided many insightful facts about the history and current practises of the things we saw. Furthermore, he led us to several local shops and little factories of typical handcrafted products from this area. We would definitely recommend booking a tour wit Youssef.

Top class

As expected, top class tour. Youssef is an amazing person to meet and a friend in need. Tourism is a profession not easy to be be practiced, but he did. Thank you dear Youssef.

Highly recommended

It's been a very long time since Youssef showed us the city of Fes, but I remember it very well. He is a very kind, helpful and knowledgeable person, who grew up in the medina of Fes. That is why he knows local customs well and speaks with locals. At our request, he asked a local to show us his house. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Fez for the first time. Thank you for everything!
