Most visitors to North Africa want to take home a picture of themselves riding a camel, and this tour gives you the perfect opportunity to do so. Tangier is a fascinating Moroccan city. It has many of the things that travelers love – a sense of exotic mystery, interesting history, beautiful vistas, unspoiled beaches, and friendly people. A scenic drive takes you to Cap Spartel, a promontory projecting into the waters where the Mediterranean and Atlantic meet. En-route, you’ll stop for a unique opportunity to take photographs of one another sitting on the back of a camel, with panoramic views of the ocean in the background.


Drive to the entrance of the medina, where you’ll enjoy a comprehensive walk through one of Tangier’s most historic and architecturally interesting areas, before moving on to the Grand Souk. The Kasbah area is spread across the highest point of the medina, and your guide leads you on an uphill walk while pointing out some of the highlights. Once at the top, you find yourself in an area much unchanged since the Roman times. The Kasbah was the traditional residence of the sultan and his harem, and is now one of the most fashionable residential areas of Tangier and much quieter quarter than the other areas of the city.


Winding your way back down the hill, your guide leads you into one of Tangier's most colorful and bustling areas, the Grand Souk. It is the center of things and the link between the medina and the new city. You’ll also walk through the medina and learn about interesting facts about the history, architecture and everyday life which will be explained by your knowledgeable guide. You’ll also stop for refreshments and enjoy time for shopping.
