Overview

Situated in the privileged enclave at the foot of the Rif mountains, Chefchaouen is a city that has managed to retain its authenticity in the face of tourism. This is one of the jewels of Morocco.

For booking this excursion you have two options. You can book a guided walking tour of Chefchaouen with a local guide or, if you prefer, you can explore the city at your own pace, without a guide. Regardless the option you choose you driver will reveal insightful information during the drive.

Upon arrival to the blue city immerse yourself in some of the unmissable sights in the medina include Place Uta Hammam square (the heart of the city), the Grand Mosque (with an unusual orange octagonal tower), the Kasbah, and the Ras El Maa spring, where the pristine gushing waters interrupt the tranquility of the surrounding picturesque hillside landscapes. A little further along the road here and you will be rewarded with a breathtaking panoramic view across the region.

  6. Place Outa el Hammam
    5m
    Nice place to stop and grab a coffee or mint tea and people watch while taking a break. Beautiful fountain and Kasbah as a backdrop add to the charm of the square.
  7. Grand Mosque
    Constructed in the 15th century, Chefchaouen’s Grande Mosque was built on the orders of Moulay Mohamed Ben Ali Ben Rachid, the son of the city’s founder. It features an octagonal minaret, which is somewhat unusual when compared to the many square minarets that generally tower over the nation’s myriad mosques. The shape was influenced by Andalusian styles, brought to the country by Muslims from Spain. Built from stone, the shades of brown and beige are juxtaposed against the nearby blue and white buildings. Admiring the mosque is among the top things to do in the city.
  8. Ras El Ma
    5m
    This cascade is very handy. It keeps things cool and provides heaps of running water for the women of the town to come to the communal laundry to go the family wash. it provides an important source not just of H2O but social interaction for the women whose lives seem to be somewhat proscribed and cloistered. No need to make a special point of visiting it as you will just come across it while wandering around the hilly little town.
