5-day tour from Tangier to Fez

Morning arrival in Tangier (where time zone differences may apply depending on the season).
Once through passport control and baggage claim, we will meet with our driver, who will accompany us throughout the tour. We will head to Cape Spartel, where the Mediterranean Sea meets the Atlantic Ocean. We will then visit the Grottoes of Hercules, 5 km away. We will continue towards Tetouan, a city known as "The White Dove" for its luminosity and the predominant colors of its houses. Once there, we will visit the Medina, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, accompanied by a local guide. We will appreciate the Andalusian influence, as it is worth remembering that for many years this was the capital of the Spanish Protectorate of Morocco. Accommodation and dinner in a riad in the Medina or a 4-star hotel.
Note: Depending on your flight arrival time, your visit to Tetouan may be rescheduled for the following morning.

Today we will travel to Chefchaouen, a city located at the foot of Mount Tisouka (2,050 m) and Mount Megou (1,616 m). Its name in Berber means "Look at the Horns," referring to the two ridges that dominate it. Along the way, we will detour to the Akchour Waterfalls to stretch our legs and take some photos. Once in the "blue village," we will tour it accompanied by a local guide.
The blend of unfamiliar voices and sounds will guide us through the winding streets to the meeting and resting point, Plaza Uta el-Hammam, where we can observe the comings and goings of its people and the beauty of the Great Mosque. We will continue to visit the Kasbah (built in the 17th century) and its gardens. A few steps further on, we'll find Makhzen Square. We'll take an alleyway leading northeast to Bab el-Ansar and the Ras el-Maa fountain, one of the most beautiful spots in Chefchaouen. In the afternoon, at our leisure, to the soothing sound of running water, we'll walk down to the stream to see how the women do their laundry and how the watermills still work. This beautiful path will take us to Rif Sebbanin, the washhouse district, with Sebbanin Square and its 15th-century mosque. Overnight stay and dinner at a riad in the Medina.

This morning we will depart early for Meknes. Along the way, we will visit the Roman ruins of Volubilis, the largest Roman archaeological site in Morocco: the Arch of Triumph, the Capitol, the House of Bacchus... all of which form this open-air treasure. On the way to Meknes, we will pass through the holy city of Moulay Idriss, who converted the local Berber population to Islam before founding Fez. The city displays its beautiful white houses around the mausoleum and remains a spiritual center, a protected site that transports travelers to another time. Arrival in Meknes, one of the most beautiful and powerful imperial cities in Morocco. Visit with a local guide. Its medina is smaller and more relaxed than its neighbor Fez, but no less important. Founded in the 10th century by a Berber tribe, it became the country's capital in the 17th century. It is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Even today, it is protected by some forty kilometers of walls, with the Bab al Mansour as its most notable landmark, a large gate considered one of the most beautiful and well-preserved in the country. The city is home to imposing monuments, including many mosques, hence its nickname "the city of a hundred minarets." After the tour, we will head to Fez, approximately 60 kilometers away. Accommodation and dinner in a riad in the Medina or a 4-star hotel.

Note: Last day of travel by car.

Today we will visit Fez-el Bali, or in other words, the old Medina of Fez, one of the most authentic and best-preserved in the entire Arab world. We will walk through its labyrinthine medieval alleys where craft centers, mosques, and palaces are hidden amidst the bustle of its people.
Fez is undoubtedly the holiest of Morocco's Imperial Cities, as well as the most culturally rich. Strolling through the Old City is like stepping back in time to medieval times. We will do so accompanied by a local guide, always on foot, as motor vehicles are prohibited in this UNESCO World Heritage Medina. In the afternoon, we will continue the tour, seeing how the different neighborhoods are laid out, always centered around everyday scenes such as the Mosque, the Fountain, the Oven, the Baths, and the Koranic School. We will have the opportunity to see the famous tanneries, where leather is tanned, and climb to a viewpoint where, before sunset, we will be able to hear the last call to prayer. Accommodation and dinner in a Riad in the Medina or a 4* hotel

At the agreed time, pick up from your riad or hotel and transfer to Fez airport for your return flight.
