Mustapha official guide Marrakech
We were in front of the Koutoubia when Mr Mustapha gently approached us. He explained the history of Marrakech, the mosque, explained the spirituality and politics of the country, praised the Berber market, advised for the return by taxi... Mustapha reflects his country, about which he speaks passionately: erudite and warm. A beautiful meeting...
