Detailed itinerary

1

As we begin our journey, we drive past the majestic Grand Mosque. Built on the site of a former Roman temple and a Portuguese cathedral, this architectural masterpiece showcases the rich layers of Tangier's history. Admire the intricate mosaic work and the towering minaret that dominates the city skyline.

2

Enjoy a scenic drive through the exclusive Marshan district, the "Beverly Hills" of Tangier. We will pass the walls of the King's official Royal Palace (Dar el Makhzen). This high-security, lushly gardened area offers a glimpse into the opulent lifestyle of the Moroccan monarchy and remains one of the most prestigious addresses in the city.

3

Stop at: Parc Perdicaris (Rmnilat) Duration: 15 Minutes Step into nature at the "Rmnilat" forest, a lush botanical park with a thrilling history. This was the setting of the famous "Perdicaris Incident" of 1904, where a US tycoon was kidnapped by the bandit Raisuli—a story that sparked an international crisis! Enjoy the fresh eucalyptus scent and panoramic views where the forest meets the sea.

4
Stop 4

Stop at: Cap Spartel Stand at the edge of the continent at the most north-western point of Africa. Cap Spartel is the legendary meeting point where the turquoise Mediterranean Sea blends with the deep blue Atlantic Ocean. We will stop for photos at the iconic 1864 lighthouse, one of the most famous landmarks in Morocco, offering breathtaking ocean vistas.

5

Stop at: Achakkar Beach Just below the cape lies the stunning Achakkar Beach. Here, you will enjoy a classic Moroccan experience: a camel ride on the golden sands (included/optional depending on your price). It’s a fun, memorable moment perfect for photos, with the Atlantic waves crashing in the background.

6
Stop 6

Stop at: Caves of Hercules Descend into myth and mystery at these Neolithic caves. Legend says Hercules rested here after separating the continents. The highlight is the "Map of Africa"—a natural opening in the rock facing the sea that looks exactly like the shape of the African continent. Please Note: Entrance to the interior of the caves is optional. The admission ticket is not included in the tour price (€10 per person).

7
Stop 7

Stop at: Tangier Casbah We return to the city to enter the ancient fortified Kasbah. Perched high on the hill, this 15th-century walled district offers sweeping views over the Strait of Gibraltar to Spain. We will navigate the winding alleyways, passing snake charmers and hidden architectural gems, entering the city's historic heart.

8

Stop at: Musee de la Kasbah Located inside the former Sultan’s Palace (Dar El Makhzen), this museum is a treasure trove of Moroccan history. Walk through the Sultan’s private gardens and admire the exquisite Fes-style mosaics, ancient artifacts, and the beautiful central courtyard that dates back to the 17th century.

9

On our way to the Medina entrance, we pass the elegant Mendoubia Gardens. This historic park is home to a giant Banyan tree rumored to be over 800 years old and a collection of vintage bronze cannons dating back to the 17th century, symbolizing Tangier’s turbulent naval past.

10

Stop at: Tangier American Legation Museum Discover the only US National Historic Landmark located outside of the United States. Morocco was the first country to recognize US independence, and this stunning museum celebrates that friendship. Walk through the historic mansion, see the Paul Bowles wing, and admire the "Moroccan Mona Lisa."

11

Stop at: Moshe Nahon Synagogue Hidden behind a modest door in the Medina lies one of the most beautiful synagogues in North Africa. Built in the 19th century, the Moshe Nahon Synagogue is a stunning example of Andalusian-Moorish architecture, featuring intricate silver lamps and carved stucco, showcasing Tangier’s rich Jewish heritage.

12

Stop at: Medina of Tangier Immerse yourself in the vibrant energy of the Old Medina. Unlike the confusing mazes of other cities, your private guide will lead you effortlessly through the souks. See artisans weaving, smell the spices, and explore the Petit Socco square. We finish with a stop for mint tea or a browse through high-quality local handicrafts (rugs, leather, brass) without the hassle of bargaining alone.
