• 5Great day trip option from Fes

  This service offers a smooth and comfortable transfer from Fes to Chefchaouen. It is important to note that this is a driver‑only service, so no guide is included, and you explore the city on your own. The schedule was well‑organized: we had a pleasant coffee break along the way, and the driver also stopped at a scenic viewpoint just before entering Chefchaouen. Once in the city, we had around four hours to explore, which was enough time to enjoy the main highlights at a relaxed pace. Overall, a reliable and convenient option for visiting Chefchaouen from Fes.

• 4Rough start with a good ending

  The tour itself was lovely. Tarik was a great driver and very friendly. If you have a spare day in Fez, it's worth the long ride. I would give 5 stars, but they screwed up my reservation and left without me, because the driver didn't know about me. They moved me to the next day luckily. But I had to do some adjustments in my schedule and got up early for nothing.

• 5Quick but relaxing

  Visiting the town Chefchaouen for 4 hours was the perfect amount of time to get the gist of the place. We stopped and got lunch and got a quick drink from an orange stand, and went shopping at a few places. The town itself is very cute and photographable if that's your thing. We went in a small group of 7 people and got to do things on our own time vs having a guide follow us around. Our driver was good but had a weird stop or two before our actual halfway stop, but it was only for a few minutes and didn't take away much time from our drive or getting to the town on time. He was quite prompt and kind. If you are limited on time in Morocco, this is perfect for small groups or couples and definitely worth checking out! The town is so different from any other city we've been to!

• 2Bumpy ride and fast driver through Mountains

  No, we didn’t really enjoy our drive. We got picked up late because the van was at the blue gate but the website meeting place said Hotel Bab boujloud. Soufiane, our driver, drove super fast and the French Citreon minivan was bumpy and uncomfortable. Soufiane didn’t tell us any history about the Rif Mountains or any information about Chefchaouen. We just finished a 3-day desert tour in a Mercedes Benz minivan and we also drove through mountains on that trip. The German Benz van was so much more comfortable and not bumpy like Soufiane’s French Citreon van.

  Thank you for your generosity and warm welcome. Frankly, it was a wonderful trip to Chefchaouen that I will never forget. Thank you, the best driver and companion, Younes, for your cooperation. He is a wonderful driver with great qualifications and speaks three languages. We did not have any communication problems with him. It was one of the most beautiful days of my life.

About Fez

Fez is Morocco's old imperial capital and cultural heart, with a vast walled medina of lanes, souks, tanneries and medieval religious schools.

Fes el-Bali, the old medina, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a living medieval city where donkeys and handcarts still carry goods through narrow lanes. Its best-known gateway, the Bab Bou Jeloud with its blue and green tiles, leads into a maze of souks, fountains and old caravanserais.
