Full description

Visit Chefchaouen, a beautiful blue door and white-walled medina that was originally a Berber post. The main square is the heart of Chefchaouen, with the 18th-century kasbah, a central mosque, and cafes with authentic Moroccan-style menus.

The market is a mix of traditional Moroccan and tourist souvenirs – it’s often very busy, but worth a visit for the bargains.

On your walking tour with your driver, explore the kasbah which was built by Moulay Ismail and is now practically a ruin next to the Great Mosque. Visit the charming main square and the souks that sell an array of goods. 

If you head to the Jewish quarter behind the jewelry souk, you will feel the difference between it and the main Arabic feel of the town.

Afterward, discover the waterfalls of Akchour, a natural beauty, and the small breathtaking waterfalls. A local tour guide is provided at Akchour.

It was a great day out, led by Nouman. He is a great character and is quick to make you feel at home. One of the best tours I have done. Also big thank you for Sarah who gave me her jacket as the weather was a bit cold in Chefchaouhen. I advise anyone to book with these guys!!! 10*

We had the best time on our trip to chefchaouen. The transport was on time and we were picked up at the hotel and also brought back in the evening. Our tour guide was super nice and showed us not only the touristic part of the city but also a closer look to the local life there. He took his time when we wanted to stop and take pictures and gave us a lot of recommendations. Due to the weather in january we couldnt go to the actual waterfalls in akchour but we still had an amazing view of the mountains and the river. We would definitely recommend to do this tour, it was a lot of fun.

We had an amazing time on this day trip. Chefchaouen and the drive out there is stunning and a must see. Our driver Anass was very nice and Informative. The only thing I wish we new in advance was to bring water shoes for the akchour hike. Part of the hike required walking across a rocky river, up to our knees in water. Since we weren’t prepared for this we ended up taking an alternate route to see a small waterfall. We really enjoyed the hike as well but it is definitely not ideal for anyone with mobility issues as we were jumping across wet rocks on part of the hike but this luckily wasn’t an issue for us. Overall, we were very happy with the tour and it was our favourite experience in Morocco so far! I highly recommend!
