About Tour Guide Kate A.
My tours were born from my passion for traveling and studying other cultures, from my avid late-night reading, and from meeting amazing, bright, and talented people from around the world. And, of course, it sprouted from my love for storytelling :). Now, there are 10 of us - guides in Morocco, the Netherlands, Belgium, Serbia and Hungary. We are historians, designers, physicists, journalists, sociologists, and art historians. I am thrilled to share my knowledge and show you these fabulous and hidden places from a tourist's perspective. My team would be delighted to accompany you on this adventure full of unexpected discoveries as we travel through the centuries and immerse ourselves in the local culture!

“Great time in Casablanca”
My morning tour of Casablanca was just wonderful. Although there were some unexpected and unforeseen circumstances from my side, my guide, Houssaine, made every thing work. He's a really knowledgeable, friendly and flexible person, with a sly sense of humor. This made for a really enjoyable and easy-going introduction to Casablanca.

Your Own Morocco. Ourika: The Kingdom of "Noble People"
About half an hour's drive away from Marrakech, it's a different world. Snow-covered mountain tops, blossoming valleys, foamy cascading mountain rivers and waterfalls, water mills, mud-brick villages clinging to mountainsides that seem impossible to reach, suspension bridges and terraced vegetable gardens. But the main thing is that a different group of people lives here. A group with its own culture, traditions, language and script. And the stories of this culture will surprise you.
