Short Tours in Tangier

What can you see in any town if you only have a couple of hours? Not much... Is it even worth it to bother? Well... book a 2 hours Kick Starter Tour with Thami and let him surprise you. Thami is a reliable guide. He picked us up from the port after waiting for us for over an hour. Important tip: make sure you stamp your passport on the ferry, otherwise your disembarkment will take for ever! The walk was pretty fast, but Thami made sure that we were able to keep up with him. His knowledge and passion about the place is impressive. We could not stop anywhere for long but had a nice break at Cinema Rif Cafe. It is well deserved after climbing the hills of Medina. You will be given access to cafe's Wifi so you can post hot of the press snaps of Tangier while enjoying a cup of fresh, strong mint tea. Great spot. And then comes the visit to Tangier's fish market. If like us you haven't been to the Orient you will be greatly impressed. Hustle and bustle of this place is difficult to describe. The noise, colours, flavours and smells and friendly traders tempting you with their exotic catch. The taste of fresh oysters offered to us (courtesy of Thami)... was a cherry on this amazing cake! Thanks Thami! Had a great time! We can recommend Thami and his tour to anyone!

Amazing local tour of Tangiers with Thami. We only had a day in the city (cruise ship stop) but we got to see all of it thanks to our expert & professionally qualified guide. The history and the culture here in Tangiers is incredible and we even got to learn a few Arabic words during our walk. And the local market (the one for real-life locals) was absolutely sensational and a real must-do for anyone who loves photography. It was an absolutely feast for the eyes! We ended our tour with a beautiful & delicious local lunch. We loved our time in Tangiers! Thami was excellent & professional and we can highly recommend him- we got to see and learn so much detail that we would have missed had we just wandered around by ourselves. We also felt safe at all times and we weren’t bothered or pestered by people trying to sell us stuff. Using the WithLocals app made it easy to book the tour and communicate with Thami, and we always got an instant response. Highly recommended!

This was our first time hiring a guide and, and wow, what a difference it made. Thami honed in on our love of learning the history and culture and taught us many things as we walked through the city. We were enthralled by the many beautiful doors so Thami made it fun by taking our picture by many of them. Best of all was getting to meet the artisans: first the owner of the spice shop and learning about the oils and spice blends and then the owner of the textiles who showed us a working loom and the many types of yarn and thread used in their amazing weavings. He also treated us along the way with mint tea and then recommended a lovely spot for lunch that had so many authentic dishes to choose from, including variety plates of salads and desserts so we were able to sample many things in one meal. I highly recommend Thami as a guide and recommend having a guided experience as worth the money!

Thami went above and beyond what we expected to give us a rich and well-informed tour of the Tangier Kasbah and Medina. He came to our accommodation the night before the tour to meet and discuss what we were hoping to experience on our personalized tour. We got so much out of the tour - history, culture but most of all a few hours with a truly lovely young man! Thank you so much Thami!! 🙏🏽
