Things to do in Chefchaouen, Tangier-Tetouan Region: The Best Tours

October 6, 2021 Elouise Mccaul

This stunning Moroccan city in the Rif Mountains was originally built as a fortress in the 15th century. The mountains towering over Chefchaouen resemble a pair of goat’s horns, and, perhaps not coincidentally, the creamy native goat cheese is one of the most popular regional treats. Architecture enthusiasts will marvel at the Jewish-inspired blue-tinted buildings, octagonal mosque and Spanish ruins.

We had an absolutely brilliant tour with Adil. He arrived at our accommodation and asked what we were most interested to see. After discussing this and confirming we did not want a shopping tour, we headed off. Adil is incredibly knowledgeable about the history of Fez and Morocco. He took us to the key sites and around the Medina, explaining things as we went, answering our questions and discussing Moroccan life and culture. He put us at ease in the complicated and bustling streets of the Medina and gave us a list of things not to miss after the tour. Our tour with him was absolutely excellent. It is such a nice introduction to Fez and the key sites around the Medina, getting local insight and a history lesson, without worrying about getting lost or being touted by shop keeps. Highly recommend it and sincere thanks to Adil. He was fantastic.

I requested the services of Chefchaouen Adventures for my family's visit to the region of Chefchaouen because we'd be before and wanted do something beyond the visit to the old city and the hike up the Akchour falls. Mohammed Yassine (MY), after taking into account the physical shape of everyone in the group (5 adults of ages 28 to 70 and 2 dogs), suggested we hike in the national park of Talassemtane which I had never heard of. He was very good about explaining what the hike entailed and made all of the arrangements - 4*4 rental, lunch, water. MY is a great guide who is extremely knowledgeable about the region of Chefchaouen, medicinal plants, and many other things - He kept us entertained and interested during the trip, so much so that my aunt - who typically doesn't enjoy physical exercise - loved the outing and declared it an wonderful idea. MY provided excellent advice on restaurants in Chefchaouen and was very accomodating when we decided to change our next day agenda. It was a great trip and I'll definitely be using Chefchaouen adventures again and recommend MY to anyone wanting to visit Morocco!

My wife and I booked a day trip to Chefchaouen with Perfect Travel Excursions. Yahya, our driver, was very friendly knowledgeable. He is a very responsible driver and took us to Chefchaouen in a large comfortable van and introduced us to the history of the city before providing us with free time to explore. Chefchaouen is a very beautiful city that is not to be missed! After the tour, he showed us some good places to drink tea and eat dinner in Fez. We had such a great time that we asked Yahya to show us the sights around Fez the following evening and transfer us to the airport when it was time to go. Anyone considering excursions from Fez should highly consider booking with Perfect Travel Excursions.

It turned out that we had the exclusive use of our driver, Hussain (or maybe Hassan? Sorry!) rather than being squeezed into the minibus - which was great! We could take as long as needed or just go when we wanted and he was, of course, very knowledgeable and keen to share his love of his country with us. Since it was early in the season the cascades were yet a little muted and so, rather than climb too high in some less than ideal footwear, we stopped at the second then returned for some lunch! We had visited a very good (and regulated) medicinal herb shop on our way and stopped at a typical Berber house on our return so, all in all, a very worthwhile trip!

A special tour because it is outside the general tourist circuits. We are a small family business that conducts tours for small groups and the experiences and guides we work with in Maruuecos are small format, family and without many travelers. A way to know Morocco very familiar, simple and quiet.

First of all, the views once we were inside were amazing. I booked this guide through trip advisor months in advance for our trip and it was one of the main highlights. 12 hours the night before our hike, our guide texted me saying he needed to cancel the hike. After asking if there was anything else he could do to be able to go he got back with me saying it was back on. We were also very late to our scheduled time to enter because our guide was unaware of the different route required do to recent rain. It was very stressful once we were there because they would not let us in for our guided tour because we were late. After a lot of arguing between our guide and the workers they let us in the hike on our own without a guide. This experience ended up being exactly what we wanted anyway, without the tour guide! Over all hiking the Caminito Del Ray was everything we expected and more. I think this tour was worth it just because it was a convenient way to get from Seville and back. I would say it was definitely disorganized as the pick up location changed multiple times and the hike almost being cancelled in less than 24 hours before, but at the end everything worked out. I would recommend this if you need a ride from Seville, but I would also recommend looking into taking a train and buying tickets from their website as the hike itself is about a tenth of the price of this guide.

Wanderlust helped my family and I to plan a multi week tour through Morocco, including stays in Tangier, Fes, Chefchaouen, Marrakech, Essaouira, and others. Ibrahim, our driver and primary guide, helped us get throughout the country and took spectacular care of us like we were his own family, to include my toddler who began waking up every day asking to "Ride in the bus with Mr Ibrahim". Megan proposed a great itinerary, which allowed us to have a relaxing family adventure. Thank you for such a memorable time!

On a recent trip to Morocco we were given an opportunity to have an extra day of leisure in Casablanca. With some research we soon realized that we would be seeing all of the top attractions in Casablanca during our tour so we started to research the day trips available from Casablanca. This day trip to Tangier drew our attention because it was one place not included in our tour but we were unsure of the tour because it had no reviews. We decided to take a chance and we were very pleased. In fact, this day trip was one of the highlights of our trip. We were met at the Tangier train station by our local guide Bilal who was excellent. Bilal and the driver took the three of us on a fantastic tour of Tangier which included the Tangier Medina, the Hercules Cave and much more. We had a delicious lunch in a small family run local restaurant which was not included but was reasonably priced. We even had a chance to take a ride along the beach on some dromedaries (one humped camels). The high speed (298 km/hr) train ride from Casablanca to Tangier which is include is two hours each way allowing a chance to see the landscaping along the coast of Morocco. Just make sure you receive your train tickets prior to your tour. All in all an excellent day. I would recommend.
