The tour guide was very knowledgeable and humorous. We went very interesting places including open market. The boarder crossing took an hour both ways for Spanish boarder in Cuenta and Moroccan boarder. The lunch was very good but we have to pay for soft drinks.

A long full day of travel, but an excellent experience in Morocco! Our guide Abdul was incredible. He toured us through Tetouan and stayed with us throughout the visit through the city. He helped us understand how to purchase in the local markets. He knew a great deal of history and shared this with his capability in multiple languages. Our guide Alex kept the group together from the beginning in Spain until the return. This was an excellent way to experience one city in Africa for the first time!
