Tour Description

This tour of Morocco invites you to ‘play it again’ with scenes reminiscent of the famous Bogart film in legendary Casablanca, where soaring sights and cafes ignite the imagination. Follow North Africa’s infamous Barbary Coast to Morocco’s capital city of Rabat—once the haven for 16th-century pirates. Discover its massive medieval battlements and the Royal Palace in one of the four Imperial Cities of Morocco. Travel along the Atlantic coastline of North Africa to visit the Caves of Hercules on your way to the dramatic promontory of Cap Spartel on the Strait of Gibraltar which divides the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea. Journey from the gateway to Africa, Tangier, to explore Tétouan, the “white dove” of the crystal blue Mediterranean and the “Blue City” of Chefchaouen. Marvel at the magic of Fez, considered the heart of Morocco, where legends of philosophers and astronomers still intrigue with a colourful culture bringing Aladdin to mind along its car-free urban alleyways and markets. A magical ride, indeed!

After the Reconquista of Spain, refugees fleeing from Spain settled in Tetouan and rebuilt the city using an Andalusian style architecture. The medina, built on the slopes of Jebel Dersa, is considered to be one of the best maintained examples of a traditional Moroccan medina.

(B,D) 174 mi / 280 km LOCAL FAVOURITE BLUE HUES Known as the "Blue Diamond" or the "Blue City," Chefchaouen has become an iconic city, famed for the blue hues that colour its charming buildings. But why blue? Some say that the blue represents the colour of the Mediterranean Sea; others say that the Jewish community of Chefchouen introduced the colour blue as they believe is represents the sky, heaven, and God. Some suggest that the colour blue keeps the houses cool, or that it repels mosquitoes; and in Islamic culture blue represents happiness and optimism. Whichever version you choose to believe, one thing is certain, the blue hues of Chefchouen won't fail to charm!
