Let's get to know places and people in the blue alleys of this city!
Hello World! My name is Carlo ... Italian who, after traveling a lot for work, for 21 years has decided to settle in what is the most fascinating city in Morocco! I speak English / Spanish / Japanese and I can 'extricate myself' even with the local dialect (jebli!)! Here, managing a Riad, I often have the pleasure of accompanying my clients to discover this enchanting and labyrinthine medina not without its curious and suggestive corners!
Pickup
Pizzeria Mandala. I often have a black backpack with a cross strap!
Description
Hello people! welcome
We will start our walk from the main square and, after some historical notes concerning the kasbah and the mosque , we will walk along narrow blue alleys until we reach the river , where I will show you the old system of wash houses ; from here towards the Spanish mosque and then enjoy a total overview of the city , including the walls and towers that surround it!
Historical notes on the importance of wood-burning ovens and public hammams will be a must!
We will go through the most important gates of the seven present in this city surrounded by a defensive wall and towers dating back to the 15th century!
Traveling together tourist itineraries but also outside the common routes, I will present the city without veils or hypocrisy... seen through the eyes of a foreigner who lives here; I often also have with me photographs taken years ago, to show you the evolution over time !
We will move slowly, just like the time that flows slowly here;
"(...) run to go where?" and even the good Salvadores would be in the right place!
Feel free to express your curiosities and I will design a personalized tour!
Peculiarities regarding 'street food' and home cooking in general (I'm Italian, precisely!), so I will show you in which places you can taste local recipes, strictly avoiding everything that is commonly definable as 'tourist' : genuine, cheap meals and taverns frequented only by 'locals'!
Eh well ..... what else to add if not a 'I'll wait for you'!
