“Cultural day tour of Tangier with Rababe and a driver.”
We only had one day and this was probably the only way we could have seen all we did in such a short time. Rababe was very pleasant and knowledgeable. I highly recommend Rababe as a guide.

“Great Tour of Tangier”
Rababe was great. She would never push you to buy merchandise from a vendor. She took us to local places so we saw the real life of Moroccans. The tour was well-organized and we saw all the highlights of Tangier. Thank you Rababe for this great tour.

“Perfect day in the market! ”
We had such a great time with Rababe! She was punctual, professional and friendly and gave us lots of information about the market and Moroccan culture and history. She was very patient with us as we took numerous photos, asked questions and entered multiple shops. We would not have had the same experience without her, she absolutely enhanced our day. Our only regret is we had to leave! We have since told many other travellers about our experience and encouraged them to seek out Rababe for an amazing day in the casbah.
