The experience

A private journey, thoughtfully arranged

Start in central Tangier and discover the city from two perspectives: its compact medina on foot and the coast by private vehicle. The morning walk links the Kasbah surroundings, old streets and public viewpoints, leaving time to discuss Tangier's connections across the Strait. A separate driver handles the road sections while your walking guide focuses on the historic centre.

After a lunch break at your own expense, head toward Cap Spartel for an Atlantic outlook. The coastal stop is part of the day; a Hercules Cave interior visit is an optional supplement and depends on opening conditions. Return to your original central Tangier pickup point. This is a Morocco-based experience: ferries, passport formalities, Tangier Med transfers and travel from Spain are not included.

Itinerary

How your experience unfolds

Stop 1

Central Tangier pickup

Meet your guide and driver at the agreed central Tangier address, then confirm the day's finish and walking pace. Begin with a short introduction to the city's geography and its connection with the Strait of Gibraltar. Ferry terminals outside the agreed city pickup area, including Tangier Med, need separate transfer arrangements.

Stop 2

Kasbah and medina walk

Explore the Kasbah and medina along public lanes, stopping for historical context and sea views where access permits. The guided walk includes uneven paving and some inclines; the route can be discussed around your comfort. Private houses, religious interiors and museum admissions are not automatically part of this public neighbourhood visit.

Stop 3

Lunch break

Take a break for lunch at your own expense and discuss how to use the afternoon. The guide can help you understand local menu choices without imposing a particular restaurant or purchase. Keep enough time for the coastal drive and the agreed return, especially if you have a ferry or onward connection.

Stop 4

Cap Spartel coast

Drive to Cap Spartel for the public coastal viewpoint and an explanation of the meeting of Atlantic and Mediterranean influences. Weather affects visibility, and the stop is worthwhile for its coastal setting rather than a guaranteed view across the strait. Entry to the lighthouse or other paid facilities is separate unless listed.

Stop 5

Optional cave and return

Visit the Hercules Caves area if opening hours and the agreed route allow; paid cave entry remains optional. Guests who skip admission can use the permitted public surroundings before regrouping. Return to the confirmed central Tangier finish point. Boat crossings, Spain visits and transfers to Tangier Med are separate services.

Private tour of Casablanca for up to 16 people

We had an an amazing tour with Hesham. Our cruise had changed our port dates around and Ayoub organized one of his colleagues to help us out!
Hesham communicated very well where we would meet and had our transportation ready to meet us! With a big party of 8 it was perfect. He was conscientious on our time and we never felt rushed. We asked for a traditional Moroccan meal for lunch and it he was able to get us in to a fantastic restaurant. He was knowledgeable and detailed with the history of Casablanca. I would recommend his tour to anyone!

Casablanca Jewish Heritage And Highlights

Ayoub was an outstanding guide, customizing a full day tour of Casablanca with a focus on Jewish sites. He created a fabulous day for our group. Highest recommendation!

7 day Moroccan Tour

Overall, our 7 day Moroccan tour was outstanding to say the least . We were able to see the imperial cities except for Meknes, experience the food , the culture , the beautiful mosques , and taking a walk at their bustling medinas and souks. We also got to experience the exhilarating hot air balloon, and camel ride, had a wonderful dinner and watch belly dancers do their exotic dancing and get to take thousand of beautiful pictures! I would like to thank our tour guide Mr Ayoub for making all these possible. He worked so hard, making arrangements for our bags , carrying our heavy luggage’s coordinating with hotel staff , since we did our own hotel booking and never once complained. He gave us restaurant recommendations and they were beyond excellent too. He allowed my group, freedom to take as much pictures as they want to, shop as long as we want. Thank you Mr Ayoub ! It was an amazing experience and a vacation to remember for the rest of our lives . Please thank our wonderful driver Mr Khalid too.
