After exploring Tangier’s Atlantic Coast, we’ll head back to Tangier’s Kasbah, where we’ll begin our walking tour. We’ll roam the calm white-washed alleyways of the Kasbah and admire the majestic views of the Strait of Gibraltar from Bab Bhar. We’ll then walk to the medina, past Barbara Hutton’s house and the emblematic Café Baba, to the Grand and Petit Socco via Ibn Battuta’s tomb.

We’ll then visit the American Legation, an American National Landmark, and follow the footsteps of the Beat Generation to Café Centrale, a favorite meeting spot within the city walls!

Tangier is drastically different from any other city in Morocco. Here, you’ll hear many different languages spoken simultaneously and notice a mix of cultures and ideas that normally tend to clash rather than miraculously mold together.

We’ll then delve deeper into the Rif Mountains and head directly to Chefchaouen, also known as ”The Blue Pearl” or “The Blue City”.

We’ll check-in and explore this blue universe of a Medina by night, long after all the day trippers have left, and get to really mingle with the locals. By locals, we mean the gazillion cats that call this charming place home!

After a leisurely start and a filling breakfast, we’ll head to explore the medina and its souks with all of its locals at full swing and get to witness the infinite shades of blue, as the morning light bounces of this medina’s walls!

We’ll visit the Kasbah of Chefchaouen and climb up its 15 th century tower for an impressive 360 panorama.
