Chefchaouen Day Trip

We start the day early in the morning from Fes, usually around 7:00 to 8:00 AM. The drive takes you through the Rif Mountains, with beautiful views of forests, hills, and small traditional villages. There will be short stops along the way for photos or a coffee break.

We arrive in Chefchaouen around 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM. This city is known as the “Blue City” of Morocco because of its blue-painted streets and houses. The atmosphere is calm, peaceful, and very different from big cities.

After arrival, we begin exploring the old medina. You will walk through narrow blue streets, small shops, and local markets. We visit Uta el-Hammam Square, the heart of the city, and also the Kasbah, an old fortress with a small garden and museum.

At lunchtime, you can enjoy a meal in a local restaurant, often with rooftop views over the blue city and the mountains. It is a nice moment to relax and enjoy traditional Moroccan food.

After lunch, we visit Ras El Ma, a small natural spring where fresh water comes from the mountains. It is a peaceful place where locals sit and relax, and it is also good for photos.

You will then have free time to walk more in the blue streets, take pictures, or shop for souvenirs. If you want, you can also visit the Spanish Mosque viewpoint for a wide panoramic view of Chefchaouen and the mountains.

In the late afternoon, around 4:00 to 5:00 PM, we start the return journey back to Fes. We arrive in Fes in the evening, around 8:00 to 9:00 PM, after a full and beautiful day.
