3-Day Rif Mountains & Chefchaouen from Tangier

Customisable Itinerary
4.0 • (1 review)

Trip Overview

This brief, yet wonderful, three-day tour to Chefchaouen is ideal for those travellers who are visiting Spain but who also wish to experience a little taste of Morocco.

Arriving by short ferry ride from Southwest Spain, crossing the straits of Gibraltar, certainly adds to the excitement and anticipation of this little “Moroccan Adventure”. On arrival into Tangier port, your driver and private transport will take you on a thrilling countryside journey, through the mighty Rif Mountains, passing close to the city of Tetouan and on to the Blue City of Chefchaouen.

Chefchaouen is a delightful, small, hillside settlement where much can be easily explored on foot. Narrow streets and alleyways, often cobbled, hide hidden gems of experience, all very colourful and absolutely most photogenic.

Your driver will collect you from the Tangier port after taking the ferry from Spain to go to Chefchaouen. Your journey takes you through the impressive Rif Mountains with their high peaks, deep valleys and heavily forested slopes of cedar, cork, oak and pine. The highest peak is Mount Tidirhine at 2,456 metres and it is usually snow-capped in winter. There is rich, productive farmland to be seen too on the lower slopes with many traditional villages that blend organically into the landscape.

This small city is totally charming and today you'll explore it on your own. Nestling as it does in the Rif Mountains, its name is apt, meaning, peaks; they are all around this hillside settlement. Chefchaouen is an ideal place in which to simply relax and wander, taking in the wonderful ambience of the place. Chefchaouen’s medina area has many charming narrow passageways where blue paint dominates.
Ras el ma spring, the town’s river source, can also be visited on foot within the settlement.
