TANGIER, MOROCCO

Explore Tangier, the real gateway to Morocco, guarded by the Cape Spartel lighthouse.

After driving through the main boulevards of Tangier and the Place de France, we then follow the mountain road, lined with magnificent villas and lovely gardens, before arriving at the Cape Spartel Lighthouse.

Following a photo stop at Cape Spartel, we then re-board our tour coach for a panoramic drive along the coastline, before arriving back in Tangier, where a stop will be made at a hotel for a refreshing soft drink.

Our guide will walk us through the Mdina and the Kasbah, and we can enjoy a short visit to the American Legation Museum, which retraces the history of the relationship between Morocco and the United States, before we drive back to our ship.

TOUR NOTES: There is approximately 1¼ hours of walking involved on this tour. There are approximately 13 steps to negotiate at the American Legation Museum, and further steps will be encountered during the walk through the Kasbah. Please note that the walk through the Mdina and Kasbah can be a strenuous and crowded experience over uneven ground, and you will be hassled by shopkeepers pressing you to purchase their wares. Toilet facilities are available in the American Legation Museum and during our refreshment stop.
