Overview

A private walking tour of Tangier's old city for your group only, with a licensed local guide, in 2 to 3 hours.

The walk starts at the top of the old city, at Bab Kasbah, the main gate of the Kasbah: the ramparts over the bay and the Kasbah Museum in the former sultan's palace. From there your guide takes you down through the lanes of the old living quarters and the medina, past the souks and Berber markets, to the Grand Socco and the Mendoubia Gardens.

On the way your guide tells the stories of the writers and artists who lived in Tangier, from Paul Bowles to Barbara Hutton. You choose the start time, and the pace is yours.
