Day Trip Details

We will meet at the Information Office in the port of Tarifa an hour before departure. We will set sail on a ferry to the port of Tangier, which takes 50 minutes. Once there, a guided tour of the modern city will begin.

Our first stop will be Cape Espartel, where we can witness the union of the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. Next, we will visit the Caves of Hercules, believed by the Greeks to be where Hercules rested.

You will have some free time for photos or a short camel ride.

We will continue to the Kasbah in the highest part of the Medina of Tangier, viewing the Sultan's Palace and the Strait of Gibraltar.

The excursion includes a walk through the Medina, passing by the Mendoubia gardens, the vegetable market, and the Tangier Synagogue, where we will learn about the Jewish community’s history.

Nearby, we will enjoy a typical Moroccan lunch featuring harira soup, beef kebabs, couscous, green tea, and pastries with live traditional music.

After lunch, you will have about 40 minutes for shopping. We will reconvene for the return journey.
