4 Days Tour from Tangier to Fes

Begin your 4-day northern Morocco tour as your driver meets you upon arrival by ferry or plane in Tangier. Travel south via the charming Andalusian-Arab coastal town of Larache toward Rabat, Morocco’s historic imperial capital of grand minarets, wide avenues, and green spaces. Enjoy a guided city tour featuring the picturesque Oudaia Kasbah, the bustling medina enclosed by Almohad ramparts and the 17th-century Andalusian Wall, the iconic Hassan Tower, the Mausoleum of Mohammed V, and the historic Chella Necropolis where Roman and Islamic ruins lie side by side. Enjoy dinner and an overnight stay in Rabat.

After breakfast, depart Rabat through expansive agricultural landscapes toward the imperial city of Meknes. Stop to capture photos of the massive, ornate Bab El Mansour gate, explore the historic Heri al-Suani royal stables, tour the old medina, and view the magnificent royal palace. Continue onward to the sacred hillside town of Moulay Idriss for a brief rest before visiting the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Roman ruins of Volubilis. In the late afternoon, head to the great city of Fes for your overnight stay.

Dedicate your day to exploring Fes after breakfast, wandering through the vibrant, labyrinthine streets of the ancient medina. Your guided tour includes key cultural landmarks such as the majestic King’s Palace gates and the historic tanneries. Enjoy a traditional Moroccan lunch in the heart of the old city before continuing your afternoon exploration of local artisan quarters, concluding with a relaxing evening at your hotel.

After breakfast, depart Fes and drive north through rolling farmlands and charming rural villages toward the striking peaks of the Rif Mountains. Arrive in the picturesque blue-washed town of Chefchaouen, nestled in the hollow of the twin mountains—Ech-Chaoua (The Horns)—from which it derives its name. Wander through narrow alleyways lined with white-and-indigo buildings, ornate fountains, and unique houses. Enjoy lunch at a traditional restaurant offering atmospheric views over the Ech-Chaoua mountains, followed by an afternoon transfer back to Tangier for your final drop-off.
