“Tour not recommended!!!! We paid for a tour and didn't see what was written in the program. We only saw the Jewish quarter and the souks, while the Bahia Palace and Saadian Tombs, which were included in the tour, were not visited by the guide. He also took us to see a very small museum/palace where a private party was being prepared, with about 200 people working there, so we couldn't even pass through and there was a lot of confusion. In addition to stopping repeatedly to talk to friends, the guide made us go into a carpet shop for 40 minutes. They should refund my money because not only…”
