About this experience
Salam! Hello Dear travellers.I have worked as a tour guide for 4 years. I took up this work as a career because I feel that one should work in a capacity where one enjoys work. And the fact that I love and enjoy my work immensely can be shown in the way I lead tours.
Over the years that I have worked in this capacity, I have acquired skills in many areas, such as developing and implementing schedules and ensuring proper direction to tourists.
Specifically, I am well-versed in leading groups on sightseeing tours, providing them with information on historical Monuments of different areas within Morocco. Since I believe that a well-organized tour is a successful one, I make sure that all areas such as timelines and safety measures are well taken care of.
I will be very happy to guide you in my city and show the best places, and give you all the information needed to know the culture and traditions of the locals.
Book me as your guide and will show you the hidden gems of Marrakech.
