Chefchaouen Morocco: private tours from Tangier through northern Morocco

Morocco Tours from Tangier

4 private tours: from northern Morocco circuits to full south-bound expeditions ending in Marrakech.

Tangier stands at the crossroads of two continents and two seas (the Atlantic and the Mediterranean), making it Morocco's most dramatic entry point. Travelers arriving by ferry from Spain step off the boat into a city of whitewashed hills, Art Deco facades, and a medina that was once home to Paul Bowles, Henri Matisse, and the Rolling Stones. From here, the whole of Morocco lies south.

Our 4 Tangier tours run north-to-south: through Chefchaouen's blue alleyways, past Fez's medieval medina, across the Sahara dunes of Merzouga, and on to Marrakech. All tours are private, all include a licensed driver-guide, and all can be reversed or customized to suit your schedule.

Not every Morocco traveler wants the Sahara. Some come specifically for the north: the Andalusian architecture of Tangier, the Atlantic charm of Asilah, the photogenic blue lanes of Chefchaouen, and the medieval labyrinth of Fez. This private 5-day tour covers northern Morocco in depth, without rushing south to the desert. It suits travelers arriving by ferry from Spain or Gibraltar, and those who have already done the south and want to see a different side of Morocco. Ending in Fez, the spiritual and intellectual capital of the country, it also works naturally as the start of any southbound journey.

Frequently Asked Questions: Tangier Tours

Is Tangier a good starting point for a Morocco tour?

Yes, especially for travelers arriving by ferry from Spain (Tarifa or Algeciras to Tangier Med takes 35–90 minutes). Tangier sits at the northern tip of Morocco, where the Atlantic meets the Mediterranean, making it the perfect entry point for a north-to-south Morocco circuit. Our tours from Tangier end in Marrakech, so you can fly home from RAK Airport without backtracking.

How long is the drive from Tangier to Chefchaouen?

Tangier to Chefchaouen is approximately 2.5 hours (120 km) via the A1 motorway and mountain roads through the Rif foothills. It is one of the most scenic drives in Morocco: the landscape shifts from coastal plains to pine-forested mountains before the blue rooftops of Chefchaouen appear in the valley below.

How many days do I need for a tour from Tangier to Marrakech?

We recommend a minimum of 7 days to cover the highlights: Tangier → Chefchaouen → Fez → Sahara desert → Ouarzazate → Marrakech. Our 10-day grand tour adds Meknes, Rabat, and the Dades Gorge for a more complete experience. For a condensed overview, the 5-day Tangier-to-Fez tour covers the north of Morocco.
