Tangier - Tetouan - Chefchaouen

After breakfast at your hotel/riad, we will depart for Tetouan, where we will begin our tour of the medina by entering through Bab el-Rouah, next to the royal palace. We will walk up Al-Mokaden Street, an area bustling with shops and artisans, until we reach the Zawiya Sidi Ali Barka.

We will continue climbing to Bab el-Mqbar, which will lead us to the Andalusian cemetery, where the mausoleum of the Granadan Sidi al-Mandri is located; he rebuilt the city in the 15th century.

After lunch, we will travel to the blue town of Chefchaouen, crossing the Rif Mountains to enjoy the breathtaking views. Chefchaouen is known as one of the most picturesque towns in Morocco. We will begin our tour of the town, which bears many similarities to Andalusian villages, thanks to having welcomed Muslim refugees fleeing Granada in 1492 or following their expulsion from Spain in 1648.

Its features include white and blue houses, a medina perched on the mountainside, and Andalusian-style courtyards. Accommodation in a hotel/riad.

City tour of Fez: the most important monuments and sights

At 9:30 a.m., we will pick you up from your accommodation to begin the guided tour of the ancient Medina of Fez, which dates back to the 8th century and consists of a network of streets and alleys surrounded by its city walls, which are still preserved today.

Our tour will begin with a panoramic view from one of the hills surrounding the city, followed by a visit to the bronze gates of the Royal Palace, the Jewish Quarter of Fez (Mellah), and the pottery workshops.

Afterward, we’ll walk through the narrow streets lined with shops offering everything from fresh fruit and spices to Berber rugs and other traditional Moroccan crafts. We will visit the Madrasas (Koranic schools), the Chouwara tannery, Seffarine Square, the Souk, the mosque, and Al Karaouine University (considered the world’s first university).

Midway through the tour, we’ll stop for a traditional lunch at a restaurant in the heart of the medina. After lunch, we’ll continue our exploration and conclude the tour by returning to your hotel/riad.

Next, we’ll visit the impressive Todra Gorges.

The Todra River has carved out a gorge with stunning vertical walls, making it a paradise for climbers and a unique place to explore. We’ll take a roughly half-hour hike to take in the gorges at our own pace.

– Bahia Palace, with its shaded courtyards and blue-tiled walls, built by Ahmed Ben Moussa.
