Tangier Day Trip Itinerary
We'll pick you up from Hotel Tent in Torremolinos first thing in the morning, and head to Tarifa, the port city in Cadiz, where you'll catch the ferry across the Strait of Gibraltar.
Arriving back on dry land in Tangier, you'll begin your Moroccan adventure, we'll take a sightseeing bus tour through the neighborhoods of the New City, which is home to the most lavish areas of the city.
Then we'll continue the trip by exploring the Petit Socco or Souk Dakhli. The atmospheric "Little Square", as it translates, used to be one of the most important markets in Morocco, and is these days surrounded by lively cafes and historic hotels.
Diving into the Medina, or Old Town, you'll be immersed in the daily life and customs of Tangier's locals. Strolling through its labyrinthine streets, you'll reach the Kasbah, the Medieval citadel from which you'll enjoy incomparable views over the port and the bay.
Not far from the old fortress, you'll have the opportunity for a well-earned break, being served a delicious traditional Moroccan feast, consisting of Harira, beef skewers, chicken or vegetable couscous, Arab tea, and Moroccan sweets, before continuing your guided walking tour on to a local bazaar.
Finally, after an unforgettable day, you'll head back to the ferry port to sail back to Tarifa, for your return journey to the meeting point in Torremolinos, arriving 15 hours later.
