Questions Before You Book a Tangier Tour

WhatsApp us

Is Tangier worth visiting?

Yes. In one day you see a medina and a Kasbah above the Strait of Gibraltar, the coast at Cap Spartel where the Atlantic meets the Mediterranean, and a city shaped by Phoenicians, Romans, Portuguese, English and its years as an international zone. It is also the easiest way into Morocco from Spain, about an hour by ferry from Tarifa.

Where is Tangier?

Tangier is in the far north of Morocco, on the Strait of Gibraltar, facing Spain across the water. The ferry from Tarifa takes about an hour, and cruise ships call at Tangier City Port and Tangier Med.

Is Tangier safe for tourists?

Yes. Tangier is a busy port city that welcomes cruise passengers and day visitors from Spain, and the usual city care applies: keep an eye on your bag in crowded souks and agree taxi fares before you ride. Walking with a licensed guide keeps unofficial guides away.

How many days do you need in Tangier?

One full day covers the main sights: the Kasbah, the medina and its souks, the Grand Socco, and the coast at Cap Spartel and the Caves of Hercules. Two or three days let you add a day trip to Chefchaouen, Tetouan or Asilah.

How much does a private tour guide cost in Tangier?

Every tour is quoted for your private group according to the route, duration, transport and experiences you choose. Send your date and group size for a clear quote before you book; there is no payment required to ask.

What should I wear in Tangier?

Whatever you would wear in a European or American city. For a tour, choose comfortable clothes and good walking shoes, because the lanes of the medina climb up to the Kasbah.
