I am a licensed Moroccan tour guide, Amazigh by origin, based in Marrakech, with more than 20 years of experience welcoming travelers from around the world. I offer private tours in English, French, and Arabic.


For me, guiding is much more than showing monuments. My goal is to help you discover the real Marrakech through its history, culture, traditions, people, food, and everyday life. I want you to experience the city through the eyes of a local.


Together, we can explore the Medina, historical monuments, colorful souks, hidden gardens, museums, art galleries, traditional neighborhoods, and artisan workshops.


I specialize in cultural and historical tours, Medina and souk tours, and personalized shopping experiences. If you are interested in Moroccan craftsmanship, I can introduce you to the fascinating world of handwoven carpets and rugs, lanterns, leather goods, pottery, spices, herbal products, jewelry, and other traditional crafts. There is never any obligation to buy—the experience is about discovering and understanding local craftsmanship.


I can also arrange authentic Moroccan cooking classes in traditional riads, food experiences, private day trips from Marrakech, multi-day excursions, and tours with or without transportation.


Every guest is different, so I am happy to customize your tour according to your interests, schedule, and pace.


Whether you are traveling solo, as a couple, with friends, or as a family, my priority is to make your experience personal, enjoyable, informative, and memorable.


Come as a visitor, explore Marrakech with a local, and leave with unforgettable memories of Morocco.


I look forward to welcoming you!
