This was our fist experience of a trip booked with Touriocity and visit to Morocco. We absolutely loved escaping from the madness of Marrakech to head for the crisp mountain coolness of the High Atlas. We had a lovely wander through the mountain villages with our excellent (local) guide Hassan who was brought up there so knew everyone and was very knowledgeable. We loved the flexibility of the tour which meant we did a much longer walk and had a lazy lunch (absolutely delicious) and a much shorter camel ride - which was actually much more fun that we had anticipated. We got back in plenty of time for a night in the Medina with snake charmers, music and retail madness. We did a 4 day trip which was perfect and we had lovely warm weather at the beginning of December. We stayed in the old town in riad El Fenn - a really great spot for excellent service, great food and a sublime spa.

This tour was amazing! Our guide, Muhammad, was incredible - knowledgable, professional, and very attentive. He made sure we got everything we wanted out of our tour. The camel ride was a beautiful way to see the countryside, and the lunch at the Riad Jnane Imlil was one of my favorite meals of our entire trip. The food was simple, but exquisite and the view from the rooftop deck was stunning. Lastly, the hike into the mountains was a perfect way to finish the day. The scenery was beautiful and it was a nice way to witness and learn about the way the local Berber people live. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone going to Marrakech.

Had a very good tour covering in three hours what truly takes far longer. Would certainly recommend.

My husband and I paid a long overdue visit to the Cotswolds in September with no ridged itinerary. So we took our time to imerse ourselves in the quaint culture admiring it's wonderful architecture and sampling the yummy goodies in the village coffee shops.
Time was running out and we desperately wanted to do a tour of the city of Oxford so we landed on our feet as we contacted TourioCity, they devised a personal walking tour of the city for us with Chris our tour guide. He met us by arrangement at our hotel and as we only had a few hours to pack in as much as possible we set off on our tour of the colleges.
He was brilliantly informative and brought us into all sorts of nooks and crannies we would never have found on our own. Also his knowledge flowed like a story laced with amusing anecdotes and local gossip that I doubt are included in any of the guide books!
We were delighted with our Touriocity experience and will certainly use them again. We couldn't recommend them highly enough.

We thoroughly recommend Touriocity's day trip to the Imlil valley in Morocco.
From the very start everything was easy and well organised, and we were really looked after by our guide, Hassan. The whole day was so enjoyable and we really felt we experienced a genuine slice of Morocco. Hassan was really knowledgeable and was himself from the Imlil valley, so not only did he know every inch of the area, but knew the local people too. Everyone we encountered was friendly and made us feel welcome, it seems like such a lovely community and we left wanting to go back and do a longer trip in the Atlas mountains. The scenery is stunning, even in November when we visited, which apparently is the 'low' season. Hassan told us all about the local people, culture, agriculture and geology, which was fascinating.
We were also really impressed by the level of service and the quality of the food at the Riad Jnane, where we took tea before the short trek and lunch afterwards. It was delicious and very authentic, and the chef even made a special effort to make me a vegetarian version for me.
After lunch we had a camel ride in the valley, which was a very novel and fun experience. Again the scenery was breathtaking and made for a very relaxing afternoon.

We were only in Morocco for a few days, but it's definitely worth seeing the Atlas mountains - this area is really the heart of the country, and the Imlil valley day trip is the perfect way to get a taste of it. We can't wait to go back and experience another trip with Touriocity.

I booked 2 private tours through Touriocity. Oxana, introduced me to some fascinating artwork at the Louvre where I finally got to meet the infamous Mona Lisa. She also took me through the remains of an old fortress that once stood in its place. She used her iPad to show me images of what the area may have looked like back in the day, which I thought was awesome! Robbie was really down to earth. He took me on a half day highlights tour of the city and although it was very cold and rainy, he organised a mid tour pit stop for a croissant & some hot choccy. I will definitely use Touriocity for my next trip!

Very efficient and quick turnaround - really pleased and what a great way to learn more!

As someone who loves to explore and learn about new places but can find formal tour guiding a bit rigid and overbearing, TurioCity is perfect. I had a great time walking around Forence with our friendly and knowledgable guide but the audio link meant that I could stroll at my own pace and not feel locked in to a group or slowing people down. I would really recommend this option if you want to learn about your surroundings but with more freedom.

This was our first trip to Europe and we wanted to pack as much in as possible. Our tour guides in Rome were very knowledgeable and provided so much history and background as we visited the Forum and Coliseum on one group tour. I appreciated the headset so that we could wander and not feel like we had to be tied so closely to our guide in order to hear.

Our private tour at the Vatican was also very informative, our guide asked about our interests and focused on our areas of interest.

Our private guide in Paris, Christine was also very knowlegable and gave us great historical references for all of the areas, art and buildings we visited.

We truly enjoyed seeing so much in such a limited amount of time.

I had a really wonderful tour in Florence with Touriocity. They covered all the key sites around this beautiful city and made it so engaging. I would definitely go again and look out for them in other cities. I couldn't recommend them enough

We had a most enjoyable day in the Mountains which included a camel ride (fun) - delicious lunch in Imlil (1750 metres high) with a striking view of the snow-capped mountains - and a well-guided walk in the lower foothills. We were well looked after by very informative local guide Rashid - and the driver who collected us from our hotel (in a very comfortable new 6 seater) was very steady and reliable.
A great day out - and we will do it again - Well organised Touriocity!

We had a great tour the day after a wedding in Florence which made us feel very smug and cultural while the majority of the wedding party took the day off! Our tour guide was lovely and really knowledgable, sharing the info in a a relaxed and friendly way. All the anecdotes were interesting and we even stopped for some well earned ice cream in the middle!

The earphones worked well, although we did have a couple of moments of static, allowing us to walk at our own pace but still hear all that was being said.

Would definitely recommend as an interesting and productive way to see all the main sights of Florence.

FABULOUS! This was the best tour we have ever taken -- and that comes from a couple who have travelled everywhere. Our guide Olivia's depth of knowledge about how the French lived under Nazi occupation illuminated things we had not previously known. Her inclusion of photos and music from the period gave us an even greater appreciation of what everyday life had been like at that time. At our request she provided the names of books and web sites where we could continue our education about the subject. In three hours we were transported back in time to better understand the all encompassing Nazi stranglehold on the citizens of Paris and France and their response. Thank you, Chelsey for arranging exactly what we were looking for in a tour and also to Olivia, our incredible guide. Thank you both for an outstanding, remarkable and unforgettable afternoon.

We had a friendly and bubbly tour guide for a group of Non Italians in Florence . While there was so much to pack in we a got a good summary of Florence and we visited the main "Staples " of Florence in one afternoon . Her English was excellent and there was never any misinterpretation of her words.This was the first time experiencing the remote earpieces which certainly helps the whole experience for big groups as we were .
I would certainly use Touriocity again when needing a tour guide in another destination around the world !

I HIGHLY recommend Touriocity! We had a GREAT day! Chelsey took lots of time to understand exactly what we wanted in our tour and then she provided it. We discussed time constraints, priorities, etc., and in the end, we felt that the trip we designed together was just perfect for us. It was one of the highlights of our trip to Spain. Our guide and driver were superb. Our guide was very knowledgeable and upbeat. She provided an appealing blend of a broad historical/social overview and interesting little tidbits, and she had answers to all of our questions. Our driver was safe, courteous, and dressed up with a luxurious car. We felt very spoiled.

The schedule worked well. We did everything we wanted to do and didn't feel rushed at any point. Having this tour allowed us to see a lot of the countryside that we wanted to see. We visited a couple of small towns and a winery. The winery our guide chose was a superb choice! They provided a wonderful tour--a real touch of the countryside, informative, good wine, a beautiful setting, and a lovely old building.

I hope you'll book a tour with Touriocity, because I think you'll be happy you did. It was a great experience for us.

The people at Touriocity were able to accommodate our last minute requests promptly. Just a few emails and we're off. Thanks team.

Yesterday we had a tour of the Atlas Mountains
We were picked up by our driver promptly at nine then driven about an hour from Marrakech to our first destination, to meet with our guide Mohammed and two lovely well behaved camels.
We trekked through the countryside with Mohammed walking beside us telling us all about the birds and fauna.
We met again with our driver and were taken up the valley to Imlil.A walk to a Berber house and lunch of tagine on a roof terrace followed.
After lunch Mohammed led a hike up the valley, quite tough!, good trainers needed, through some beautiful scenery and Berber villages and down the hillside dodging mules and lovely people past a river and back to our driver.
We got back to our hotel at 4.45, tired but having really enjoyed our day.
Thank you Touriocity, Chelsey for organising it and Mohammed for your enthusiasm

Chelsey was fantastic and helpful and spent a lot of time and energy making sure we had the best tours
Highly recommended!

We booked 3 tours with Chelsey for our long weekend whistle stop visit of Rome. We had 3 private guided tours of The Colosseum, Vatican and a night city tour. Each one was amazing! Our guides all arrives promptly at the assigned location, they were all exceptionally well knowledge and were all relaxed and enthusiastic when speaking. They were each different in their "style" and we feel Chelsey picked the perfect guide for us for each separate tour. We skipped all the queues everywhere and didn't have to worry about buying tickets etc. we just turned up! The only down side was that there's much too much to see and do in Rome so we'll have to go again one day. I would certainly recommend this company to organise tours for us again one day :-)

The tour of Oxford University and city centre was the perfect way to see and understand life in Oxford . It consists of 2.5 hour tour , vititing the colleges and campus , together with a most informed guide explaining student life there .
The history of Oxford is then all before you in a way that you would be able to do yourself and that s where the good guide comes in .
A tour to be recommend.
