Experience Food Tours in Marrakech with Withlocals

"Jan and I chose Ouidad as our guide for the Tastings of Marrakech tour based on the glowing reviews praising her warmth and kindness. From the very start, my intuition told me we were in for a remarkable experience—and we were not disappointed. Ouidad is truly a wonderful person, and that made all the difference. It was incredible how quickly we felt like we were with an old friend.\n\nBefore each tasting, Ouidad beautifully described the dishes we were about to enjoy, which heightened our anticipation and enriched the tasting itself. Between stops, she shared fascinating stories about the Medina’s history, architecture, people, customs, and traditions, not just from the Medina but from various regions of Morocco. She was very considerate in making sure we felt comfortable with the historical information she shared, recognizing that some guests prefer to focus only on the food while others, like us, appreciate the cultural and historical information.\n\nAt every stop, we received a warm welcome, and the food was absolutely delicious. I honestly cannot imagine a better guide than Ouidad. For anyone seeking a genuine, enriching food and cultural journey through Marrakech, Ouidad is the perfect companion. Bon appétit!"

"Our first evening in Marrakech we had the absolute pleasure of taking a food tour with Adil. He customized the tour to our exact needs—adventurous adults and not so adventurous 13 year old. Adil was so knowledgeable about the history of Marrakech, local cuisine and we even discussed English literature! We were so impressed by the experience that we hired him for a tour of the souks on the next night. "

"The afternoon food tour was our first proper experience of Marrakech and were instantly put at ease meeting Adil. Adil's enthusiasm for his home city was infectious and shared great knowledge on a number of topics. We were able to experience a number of things we wouldn't likely have done on our own. All of the choices of food and drinks were excellent, just a shame we both ran out of room to eat and drink more. Highly recommended, thank you Adil"

"We had an amazing tastings tour with Ouidad. The sights, sounds, and of course the food were amazing. Ouidad was so knowledgable and entertaining for all ages in our party but above all Ouidad was so kind and caring!! "

"We had a lovely experience with Lhoussaine. His ability to describe the nuances of culture through the foods of Morocco was very special. He was kind, patient and very knowledgeable. His love for the people and culture of Morocco shines through in his tour. I would definitely recommend Lhoussaine as a guide for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of Moroccan food and culture. \n"

"We did the fabulous food tasting tour with Omar and had a really great time! We are a family with two teens, 17 and 12. I made the mistake of booking a tour at 3 pm and Omar contacted us beforehand to politely ask if we would like to delay the start. We were very grateful for his common sense! Omar is a knowledgeable and ethical tour guide. He took us to some lovely places we would never have found and gave us a great insight into Moroccan culture. The food was lovely and we were very full by the end. Our boys are foodies so that part of the tour was always going to be appreciated, however they also enjoyed all the other information. The Herbalism shop was a big hit with all of us. The presentation was educational and no pressure at all to buy anything. We did because the products are lovely!\nVery glad we did this tour at the beginning of our journey. It will help us appreciate the Moroccan experience even more."

"I booked an individual tour to sample the local food scene and Houssaine put together a wonderful experience for me. He was an extremely knowledgeable and friendly tour guide who helped make my stay in Marrakesh an enjoyable one. I highly recommend!"

"We had a lovely evening with Elhoussaine. He was such a gentleman and went out of his way to make sure we had the best experience. "

"We did the street food tour with Lhoussaine. Our tour was adjusted instead of private it was in a group. We were informed about this in time. It was a great guide who really let us enjoy the tasty things in Marrakesh. Super friendly and nothing was too much. Even more information about other things you wanted to know. We did this tour upon arrival so that we immediately got a view of the immense city. I can only recommend it. Really a topper!!! \nIf I could give him 11 out of 10 I would!!!!\nLiesbeth and Leen"

"Adil's passion for the local cuisine truly shines through during the tour. He takes you through the bustling streets, introducing you to hidden gems and local favorites that you might not discover on your own. Each stop offers a unique taste of Moroccan culture, from savory tagines to sweet pastries and refreshing mint tea.\n\nThe tour is not just about food; Adil shares fascinating stories and insights about the history and traditions behind each dish, making the experience even more enriching. He is attentive to dietary preferences and ensures that everyone can enjoy the dishes without worry.\n\nThe vibrant atmosphere of the markets, coupled with the tantalizing aromas wafting through the air, creates an unforgettable experience. You get to interact with local vendors, learn about their crafts, and even try your hand at bargaining for some spices or souvenirs.\n\nWe also appreciated the small group size, which allowed for a more personalized experience. Adil's enthusiasm was contagious, and it felt like we were exploring the city with a friend rather than just a tour guide.\n\nOverall, this walking food tour in Marrakech was a highlight of our trip. If you're looking to dive deep into Moroccan cuisine and culture, this is an absolute must-do!"
