I wanted to experience an in-depth tour with a native guide. What I received surpassed anything I could have imagined! Idriss proved to be a remarkable guide; he engaged me from the moment he collected me in 'his' beloved city through fascinating tales, comprehensive insights, and genuine hospitality. He skillfully guided us to key sites and introduced us to people from his personal circle. These authentic connections made everything feel so real and special. It was like stepping directly into living history. Many thanks, Idriss!
