Detailed itinerary

1

Medina of Asilah is a town in Morocco in the province of Asilah-Safi built on a tiny islet, located about 5 kilometers from the Atlantic coast. It has been inhabited since prehistoric times and attained its present name in 691 AD when Caliph Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan reconquered it from the Visigoths. The city has an old medina with narrow winding streets.

2
Stop 2

The Tangier Casbah, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is the oldest part of this bustling city and its historic heart. It is a traditional Moroccan townhouse in the medina quarter of Tangier. It is a walled fortress-like complex that contrasts sharply with the open spaces of the city's souks, or markets.

3

The medina, or old city, of Tangier is an open air museum. It is a labyrinth of alleyways both commercial and residential. It's well worth exploring for the many small shops and stalls on offer to buy everything from Moroccan jewellery to fresh seafood, or just to soak in the atmosphere of this fascinating African city.

4
Stop 4

Hercules Cave is a 10-minute walk from the coast, in the hills overlooking Tangier. The cave, now collapsed and covered with a hill of sand, was once used as a secret meeting place by smugglers and pirates from all around the world.

This is the first and only cave in the world with galleries that have been inhabited continuously for more than 40,000 years. Starting from the end of May, discover this natural wonder of nature.
