Your Morocco day trip to Tangier begins with a scenic drive from Costa
del Sol to Algecias or Tarifa, in the southern tip of Spain. From there,
board a high-speed ferry to travel to Morocco across the Strait of
Gibraltar (45 to 60 minutes), where your journey to the exotic Moroccan
city of Tangier will continue on a comfortable, air-conditioned coach.
Start your tour of Tangier with a panoramic sightseeing tour of the city
center and continue by foot to the little souk, the medina (old
quarter) and the kasbah (old fortress). Admire Morocco's rich
architecture, wander around the spice markets, visit one of the local
bakeries to try some tasty bread (own expense) or stop to see the snake
charmer.
Next, go shopping at a typical bazaar and see many types of carpets and
handicrafts. Have a traditional Moroccan lunch at a local restaurant,
and feast on food like couscous, tagine and other local delicacies.
During lunch, be entertained with a performance by a Berber dancer.
Continue with a short stop at Cape Spartel, where you can see the Mediterranean Sea and
the Atlantic Ocean mix together. Then, sample traditional mint tea and
learn about the mint tea rituals at a local shop. Next, visit the Cave
of Hercules and stop by the white sand dunes that border the Atlantic.
If you wish, you may ride a camel here (own expense)! Alternatively,
enjoy free time to explore the beautiful area.
On your way back to the ferry, admire views of the Moroccan landscape.
After your cross the strait, relax on the comfortable coach ride from
the Spain port back to Costa del Sol.
