Chefchaouen
Chefchaouen was founded in 1471 as a small Kasbah (fortress) by Moulay Ali Ibn Rashid Al-Alami, a descendant of Abd As-Salam al-Alami and Idris I, and through them, of the Islamic prophet Muhammad. Al-Alami founded the city to fight the Portuguese invasions of northern Morocco. Along with the Ghomara tribes of the region, many Moriscos and Jews settled here after the Spanish Reconquista (Inquisition) in medieval times. The city’s blue palette drives its origin from that same era, given that arriving Jewish exiles painted their houses blue to reflect their divinity — a tradition that continued through the centuries. It wasn’t until recently that the blue shades spread out of the Jewish quarter (the Mellah) to the other parts of the Medina (the old town) making it the “blue pearl of Morocco” we know today.

5.00Excursion during cruise with stopover in Tangier. Highly recommended Perfect organization! Meeting at 8.30 am outside the port, driver with van from 8 nice and professional, Wi-Fi on board the working vehicle. Journey of about 2 hours and 30 'with a stop in half. At Chefchaouen the guide was an old gentleman in age but young in spirit. Very good and city not to be missed! Only fact if I can recommend to the next travelers, do not hesitate to ask to stop, in case, to make purchases! In 3 hours, the Medina turns right. Return at 4.30pm to the port. Recommended for cruise passengers in transit from Tangier or for those already present on site.
Fantastic trip!

5.00We had an incredible experience exploring Tangier thanks to our amazing guide! From the moment we met, he made us feel welcome and comfortable, sharing both the rich history of the city and hidden gems we would have never found on our own. His knowledge of Tangier’s culture, food, and traditions was outstanding—every stop came with fascinating stories that brought the city to life. What stood out most was his warmth and hospitality. He treated us not just as tourists, but as friends visiting his hometown. He was flexible with our schedule, made great recommendations, and even helped us navigate the markets with ease. The food stops he suggested were authentic and delicious—some of the best meals of our trip. If you’re visiting Tangier, I cannot recommend him enough. He turned what could have been a simple tour into a truly memorable experience. Tangier felt alive, welcoming, and unforgettable because of him.
Highly recommended!

5.00Our driver was great and our guide in Chefchaouen was over 80 years old but kept up with us. He was dressed in traditional attire and walked with a cane (where we wanted him to photobomb our pictures). He was able to steer us away from the other large tourist groups and knew many great spots for pictures (with us being there without anyone else). He seemed well respected by the community and was able to keep hagglers (if there even was any) away from us. He only gave us basic information but everything else was amazing.
This was a great tour....

5.00This was a great tour. The city itself is cool with the iconic blue buildings and brilliant mountains. This is an opportunity to see something unique and different. The driver and guide made sure to customize the trip, skipping a stop we didn’t want and ensuring to take us to authentic shops.. The owner even checked in on us during the tour!
Great day trip!

5.00Our day trip to Chefchaouen was amazing! The drive to and from was very comfortable, and our driver Abdul made scenic stops along the way. He was super thoughtful in making sure we saw everything we wanted to prior to leaving. Our local tour guide was 83 years old and so kind, knowledgeable, and funny. He moved around the city with ease and seemed to know everyone! Highly recommend this experience!
Good Tour

4.00Driver picked us up right in time from our hotel (though I didn’t receive any WhatsApp messages to confirm the evening before, just emails from Viator), it’s about a 2 hour transit to Chefchaouen from Tangier and we made one stop at a restaurant overlooking a beautiful lake (restroom break, too). Our guide, Abdul, was a 83 year old local! Don’t let his age fool you, he moves at a fairly quick pace so if you want to stop and buy things/browse, you need to tell him. Otherwise he’ll walk you through the maze of the Blue City, show you each Instagrammable alleyway, and tell you all about the local history. Highly recommend!
