About this experience

The private round-trip transfer in a day from Tangier to Chaouen, Morocco’s blue pearl, in the Rif Mountains 115 km southeast of Tangier, is a two and a half hour journey (each way). The private transport journey with driver will also show you the rural northern Morocco and Mediterranean landscapes that become increasingly mountainous.
Although it is a very tourist destination, the magical blue village of Chefchaouen is a sacred village that only since 1920, with the arrival of the Spanish, began to allow its entry to foreigners. And this is perceived from the beginning. It is an essential visit because of the beauty of the place and its peculiarity. Dipping into your blue will delight you.
