  5. This cascade is very handy. It keeps things cool and provides heaps of running water for the women of the town to come to the communal laundry to go the family wash. it provides an important source not just of water but social interaction for the women whose lives seem to be somewhat proscribed and cloistered. No need to make a special point of visiting it as you will just come across it while wandering around the hilly little town. Mostrar menos PD: This attraction is included in the optional guided tour.

  8. Constructed in the 15th century, Chefchaouen’s Grande Mosque was built on the orders of Moulay Mohamed Ben Ali Ben Rachid, the son of the city’s founder. It features an octagonal minaret, which is somewhat unusual when compared to the many square minarets that generally tower over the nation’s myriad mosques. The shape was influenced by Andalusian styles, brought to the country by Muslims from Spain. Built from stone, the shades of brown and beige are juxtaposed against the nearby blue and white buildings. Admiring the mosque is among the top things to do in the city.

  • 5Excellent tour of the Blue Pearl. A must-see destination in Morocco!

    We had a very pleasant tour experience. Our driver picked us up from our hotel at 10am and drove us to Chefchaouen. The drive is about 2 hours and is very scenic. We were joined by our local guide who walked us through the beautiful blue alleys explaining the history and culture of this unique town. Our tour guide Imad was excellent. He grew up in Chefchaouen and shared stories from his childhood and really gave us a window into life in the Blue Pearl. Since it was a private tour, the tour was flexible to our needs and we had lovely conversation. Since it was summer we enjoyed seeing the community and children enjoying the springs so the tour had an immersive aspect to it as well. We returned by 5pm with plenty of time to enjoy dinner back in Tangier. Highly recommend this tour company and destination!

  • 5Excellent Trip to Chefchaouen

    We had a wonderful trip to the beautiful city of Chefchaouen with Chefchaouen Adventures. Our driver Hatim was a pleasure to travel with and made our journey there and back even better. Thank you Mohamed and Hatim for accommodating our additional stop to Cap Spartel since we were short on time. We highly recommend Chefchaouen Adventures for your next trip to Chefchaouen! Shukran.

  • 5Outstanding Private Tour to Chefchauoen

    We had a fabulous day visiting Chefchaouen! We had had the Tour all to ourselves. Our personal Tour guide has lived in this beautiful village his whole life. He shared so much about the history, and current life there. You can tell how proud he is of this quaint city. The iris blue colors of the homes - so stunning. We had a delicious lunch after touring the area. Our driver was excellent, and we were very comfortable in a new Ford luxury van. I left a jacket in the van, and the company service is exemplary- sending it back to me in the states. Highly recommend this tour!

  • 5Great trip to Chefchaouen

    Great trip to Chefchaouen. Our driver was very pleasing with our group and did a short stop on the road so we could buy a Tangine. Also once we arrived Chefchaouen our tour guide was excellent and adapted the tour to our group as we were with our elderly mother and helped us complete a pleasant day.

About Tangier

Tangier sits where the Atlantic meets the Mediterranean, a storied Moroccan port of whitewashed medina lanes, a hilltop kasbah and views to Spain.

The medina climbs from the port to the kasbah, where the old sultan's palace, Dar el Makhzen, holds a museum with views across the Strait of Gibraltar. The Grand Socco and Petit Socco were long the meeting points of the city, and their cafés recall Tangier's decades as an international zone that drew writers, musicians and artists.

Top-ranked sights in Tangier: Cape Spartel, Caves of Hercules, Tangier Kasbah.
