Hi and a big welcome to the largest Medina in the world. My name is Abdou. I was born and raised in Fes, Morocco. I'm an authorised and qualified tour guide. I also hold an M.A. degree in English, which is very crucial to pass the information to my guests with great fluency and ease. Fes is a mysterious and fascinating city with a lot of hidden secrets; and I'm very passionate about sharing these secrets and events with my guests. I not only have a broad knowledge of Fes history, traditions and culture, but I have also designed a tour whereby my guests will be involved in sharing these values with locals; which they wouldn't be able to do if they were on their own. I take tourists through the back and very narrow twisting alleyways which are not listed in GPSs and Maps. In this tour, you will discover the gems of Fes and find out the incidents and events that took place in every corner.
Die Tour mit Abderrahime war absolut herausragend – wirklich die beste, die wir je erlebt haben! Durch die Audio-Unterstützung und seine Erfahrung als ehemaliger Lehrer war alles perfekt verständlich, sehr klar erklärt und unglaublich informativ. Abderrahime war äußerst professionell und hat uns mit vielen spannenden Hintergrundinfos begeistert. Auch die Route war hervorragend gewählt: vielfältig, sinnvoll aufgebaut und sehr angenehm zu laufen – eine wirklich entspannte, aber zugleich lehrreiche Tour durch Fès. Sogar mein Kollege, der bereits sehr viele Freewalking-Touren weltweit mitgemacht hat, meinte, dass dies die beste von allen war. Eine absolute Empfehlung!
I would recommend this tour before starting to explore Fes. It was very interesting to learn about the history of the Medina and all the little clue markings on the walls and the streets. Super cool!
Abderrahime is a retired teacher, speaks English very well and told us a lot of interesting details about the architecture of Fès.
