Itinerário dia a dia
Welcome to Morocco! Upon your arrival in Tangier, your driver will collect you and transfer you directly to your accommodation in the city of Chefchaouen. The 2.5-hour drive takes you through small towns, flat plains, and hills blanketed in green before eventually heading into the Rif Mountains. After arriving and settling into your accommodations, it's time to explore!
Nicknamed "the Blue City" for its blue-washed corridors, Chefchaouen was founded in 1471 as a stronghold against the Portuguese. The town expanded with the arrival of refugees from Granada, who built the Spanish-style homes and architecture that gives the city its distinctive Spanish flavor. Head to the old medina, which converges on Plaza Uta el-Hammam and its restored kasbah (fortress). You can peruse the nearby souks (markets) or head to the Grand Mosque and Kasbah. Although non-Muslims can't enter the mosque, anyone can admire its structure and tour the gardens and museums.
Wander through the colorful, winding streets of the Quartier Al-Andalus, then end the day at Ras el Ma Spring, the town's primary water source, where some families still wash their clothes in the river. Take a break at one of the quaint riverside cafés for a traditional cup of tea, then make your way past the walls and historic gates to the Hotel Atlas for sweeping views across the city. If you have the time, continue up the path for another 30 minutes to enjoy the sunset from the Spanish Mosque.
