Experience the Real Marrakech! |
| What travelers are saying about us |
 |
We did the High Atlas day tour with Tod, and it was a great experience. We would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to see the beautiful scenery and Berber villages and learn about today's Morocco from someone who lives and is immersed there. -KJK.

Private Guided Tours to help you find your own way. |
"This is not a tour as it is a highly tailored experience." -Tod Zankert |
| Do you want to see the real Marrakech? Need a tour guide in Marrakech and the Atlas Mountains? I stand to give you an integrated experience throughout your visit, whether for local tours throughout Marrakech or day excursions to the High Atlas. |
|
| I also manage a travel consultancy at Riad Africa (photo at right), just five minute's walk from Jmaa el Fna. You may visit my home should you wish to stay at a legendary riad on a quiet, Medina street or elsewhere we'll discuss your itinerary over a map (and Moroccan mint tea!) for day excursions in and around Marrakech. |

I team up with official, Moroccan guides so that you might get the most of both worlds! Interested in a tour guide taking you through the Old Medina? Would you like a day trip from Marrakech to explore the villages of the High Atlas Mountains? There you will meet my colleague and neighbor in the High Atlas village of Asgour, Mohamed Chiboub (left). He can also take you to visit the golden dunes of Merzouga in a jeep 4 x 4 in the Sahara. |
I fill a niche as a Travel Advisor for those travelers who really want to see the city and learn about this country without hearing only the sanitized, made-for-theme-park-consumption version of it. I found a few official guides who love Morocco. They truly want to show you the off-beaten track spots more so than the general shopping souks which I call 'Made in China'. We choose the authentic passageways within the labyrinth of the Old City while also focussing on historical/cultural sites for your personal, guided tour in Marrakech. |

My favorite official guide in Marrakech, Karim (left) is not only knowledgable but is great fun and adds a view of the city as a local that I cannot. I bring my own story as an expat and then a local entrepreneur in Morocco since 7 years, into the mix. Also, I partner with Specialist Africa Ltd, a fully vetted and accredited member of the African Travel and Tourism Association. |
