MOROCCO EXPERIENCE TWO DAY TRIP SCHEDULE

The Morocco Experience Two Day Trip itinerary is subject to change due to logistics, waiting time, weather conditions, etc.  All of the tour will be by private bus and boat (except for the walking tours).

Day 1

First, we have a morning departure towards Algeciras.  Upon arrival, we will board the ferry to Ceuta (Africa).  Next, we will cross through border control into Morocco and head directly to  Chefchaouen. Located in the Rif Montains, Chaouen is one of the most beautiful towns in Morocco. Blue houses, narrow streets, shops and astonishing views. We will begin with a delicious lunch buffet in Parador restaurant.

After lunch we will enjoy a guided tour of the historic center with stops to take pictures and learn about the beautiful blue streets.  We will also visit a Moroccan fabric workshop, where they will explain the work of the weaver men and women who make the typical Moroccan rugs and blankets.  After the tour, you will have some free time to wander, enjoy and shop in its quaint little stores, or enjoy a traditional Moroccan mint tea in one of the multiple bars in the city.

In the evening, we will continue towards Tetuan, one of the most important cities in North Morocco for dinner and rest at the hotel.

Day 2

First we will have breakfast at the hotel and then we will explore the city of Tetuan.  We will enjoy a guided tour in the old part of the city, kasbah and medina and a visit to a Moroccan pharmacy where you also will have the chance to get natural products such as argane oil, species, creams, etc.

Lastly, with a packed lunch in tow, we will depart towards Ceuta where we will take the ferry to Algeciras.  Then, we will take the buses back to our origin cities.

Evening arrival home.
