Free walking tours in Tetouan

We had the absolute pleasure of exploring the Medina of Tétouan with our incredible guide, Hamid — and what was supposed to be a 1.5-hour city tour turned into nearly three hours of rich, immersive storytelling and discovery. From the very beginning, Hamid’s warmth, humility, and genuine love for his city were immediately clear. He wasn’t just guiding us — he was inviting us into the soul of the Medina, sharing its history, traditions, and everyday life in a way that was incredibly real and deeply moving. He explained everything with care and passion: the cultural layers of the city, how Arabs, Jews, and Berbers have lived together in harmony, and how this shared heritage continues to shape the Medina’s vibrant rhythm today. Hamid’s knowledge of the city went far beyond the surface — every alley, every tile, every doorway had a story, and he brought those stories to life. One of the most unique parts of the tour was when Hamid took us into both an Andalusian and Jewish house, showing us the subtle architectural and cultural differences — something we never would’ve seen on our own. He took us to centuries-old bakeries, where we could feel the history in the air, and even invited us to share almond pastries with him — a kind and personal gesture that summed up his character perfectly. This was far more than a tour — it was a window into a living history, guided by someone who loves and respects it deeply. We left with full hearts, grateful minds, and a much deeper understanding of Tétouan thanks to Hamid. If you are ever in Tétouan, do not miss the chance to experience the Medina through Hamid’s eyes. It’s something you will carry with you long after the walk ends.

Hamid is a great guide. Borned in medina, knows the place like his fingers. Loads of interesting information. I higly recommend the tour with him

Very informative and pleasant tour from Hamed! Highly recommended

Good tour. Even if I was the only client he showed up, did the tour, did not cancel it, and made a extra detour up the hill for me.

Amed was an amazing guide, He gave us a very detailed and insightful tour of the city and explained also many details of the history of the country. I absolutely recommend it!!

I had the pleasure to be the only person to attend the tour and it was amazing.. Hamid was very kind and spent with me a whole afternoon where I discovered the most important spots in Tetouan and behind! Super recommended

We had a great tour with Hamid who knows the medina very well. We've learned a lot about Tetouan and Moroccans' traditions overall. Can highly recommend!

He was thorough and informative.

Excellente visite. Très intéressant. On sent que Hamid connait très bien la médina ( il y a vécu). A noter la visite dure 3 h et non 2... Merci Hamid !

We loved the tour with Hamid! He took us to all kind of places around, we could never have done this on our own. We got to know a lot about the town, the medina, the mellah, the kasbah… about the local history. He’s a very kind and caring person to take you around in town. Hamid, thank you very much!!

Hamid was perfect. Extremely friendly and knowledgeable, we couldn't have asked for more. 10/10 would recommend.

It has been one of the best tours I have ever had. Mr. Hamed was very kind and pleasant to walk with. His pace and calmness brought me to another time/experience plus the wonderful places he took us with so much cultural sharing... Highly recommended.

Jalal è molto simpatico e gentile, ci ha portato a spasso in tutti i punti nevralgici più e meno importanti, raccontandoci aneddoti interessanti sulla storia della città. Ha saputo sempre tenere alta l'attenzione con il suo carisma e la sua simpatia.

I only had 24 hours in Tetuan and I couldn't have spent a better 3 of them on Mr Hamid's tour! It was such an amazing taste of the richness, diversity of the fascinating city of Tetuan....The medina is truly a labyrinth and he steered us around, explaining how life, work, family, history, and religion has all intersected to make this incredible place. We were taken inside special impressive Riad's, to panoramic views, to traditional bakeries (one gave us roasted peanuts straight out of the oven) and lots more things that there is no way I'd have had the chance to see/experience/understand not having done his tour...THANK YOU!

We were shown all places around Medina which we wouldn't have been able to find without a guide. It was a very interesting tour. Hammet provided us with the information about traditions and customs of local people and history. Hammet was very friendly to our children that enjoyed the tour a lot. We discovered secret places of Medina and enjoy the tour a lot.

Hamid fue muy buen guía. Explicaba todo con claridad. Muy buena persona. Buen tour con él

Mi Guia Hamid era muy amable. Era muy culto. Me llevo a los lugares más emblemáticos de Tetuán. Tenía mucho paciencia con mi montón de preguntas. Explicó todas las cosas con muchos detalles. El tour es muy recomendable. El gerente Hassan también me ayudó mucho. Muchas gracias por una experiencia inolvidable

Very interesting tour in Tétouan. The guide spoke very good English, and showed us very interesting spots in the city. He spoke a lot about marrocan culture and history. It was very pleasant. Thank you.

La nostra Guida è stata molto professionale, ci ha fatto visitare la città con lo spirito di una persona che conosce e ama la sua città, mostrandoci angoli nascosti e rivelandoci dettagli interessanti. Ci ha anche aiutato per necessità pratiche di viaggio, dandoci utili consigli

This almost 3 hour tour was exceptional. Hamid was an expert on the old city. His command of English was excellent. I recommend him highly.

Hassan stopped to show us lots of artisans and interesting sites we would not otherwise seen

Great wander around the most authentic Morrocan Medina with the super genuine good guy Mohammed

Excellent, informative walk! Learnt loads of things that I'd always wondered about!! Lovely to visit the Riads and fantastic views from the roof terraces. All four of us enjoyed the walk!!

I had a really nice walking tour with Hamid. Really professional and welcoming. A lot of interesting informations. Many “hidden” places I couldn’t know without him. I recommend
