10 Historical & Heritage Tours in Tangier That You Shouldn't Miss

April 25, 2022 Margarita Chappel

Located on the Strait of Gibraltar where Africa meets Europe, Tangier has long held strategic importance. Ruled through the centuries by waves of conquerors including Romans, Vandals, Byzantines, Arabs and Portuguese, the city is more than two and a half millennia old, making it one of North Africa's most ancient. The medina, kasbah, bazaars and souks are among the country's most vibrant, and the beaches are excellent. In the last century, Tangier became a hot spot for the international jet set.

Omar was a wonderful tour guide! He picked me up in Tangier in his van and we went to Hercules Cave, Cape Spartel, and for a camel ride on the beach. The tour was well organized and the views were spectacular! Omar is knowledgeable, speaks great English, and very friendly. He knows Tangier well and can help with anything you need. I highly recommend Omar to anyone who wants a fantastic tour.

A special tour because it is outside the general tourist circuits. We are a small family business that conducts tours for small groups and the experiences and guides we work with in Maruuecos are small format, family and without many travelers. A way to know Morocco very familiar, simple and quiet.

First of all, the views once we were inside were amazing. I booked this guide through trip advisor months in advance for our trip and it was one of the main highlights. 12 hours the night before our hike, our guide texted me saying he needed to cancel the hike. After asking if there was anything else he could do to be able to go he got back with me saying it was back on. We were also very late to our scheduled time to enter because our guide was unaware of the different route required do to recent rain. It was very stressful once we were there because they would not let us in for our guided tour because we were late. After a lot of arguing between our guide and the workers they let us in the hike on our own without a guide. This experience ended up being exactly what we wanted anyway, without the tour guide! Over all hiking the Caminito Del Ray was everything we expected and more. I think this tour was worth it just because it was a convenient way to get from Seville and back. I would say it was definitely disorganized as the pick up location changed multiple times and the hike almost being cancelled in less than 24 hours before, but at the end everything worked out. I would recommend this if you need a ride from Seville, but I would also recommend looking into taking a train and buying tickets from their website as the hike itself is about a tenth of the price of this guide.

Ali Tangier Tours was worth every penny! Ali was very responsive and easy to work with as we started to plan our trip months before. He gave us phenomenal suggestions and we were able to visit many places through out Morocco. When we arrived to Morocco we were met by Abdul, who was our tour guide through out our 10 day adventure. Abdul was an incredible guide, very knowledgeable on the history of Morocco, and genuinely a great person. Sometimes it can be a bit worrisome when traveling to a different country, but Abdul was honest, very trustworthy, and caring, which made the whole entire experience comfortable and amazing to say the least. We started in Tangier, where we were brought to quality spots to eat and shop. Abdul took us around the Médina and gave us a history tour of Tangier. From here he took us to Chefchaouen. On the way Abdul gave us options to stop and see other cities, which we did not think to see, as well as, quality places to eat. Only a local Moroccan would know this information. After our stay in Chefchaouen, we planned to go to Fes. Abdul, once again had many suggestions that were great on our way to Fes. We stopped to see Volubilis, and made a stop in Meknès to see the doors. Here we were brought to my favorite store in Morocco. With out Abdul’s suggestion I would have never gone here! With plenty of time to spare we were able to get to Fes. In Fes, Abdul guided us to the tanneries and through the Médina. He brought us to the top quality spots, which really made a difference. From here we left for Merzouga, to see the Sahara Desert. Once again, Abdul was gracious and knowledgeable through out this 9 hour journey. We made a stop for breakfast, and another stop in Rissani, where we got to a beautiful Rug shop. Once again another great suggestion, these gentlemen were top notch, quality guys. We were met with local cuisine and Moroccan tea. Abdul, helped us set up our quads and Camel ride experience in the Desert. Once again he exceeded our expectations. From here we spent the remaining time in Marrakech. The information that Abdul shared with us prepared us for Marrakech. Everything he said and did was truthful and genuine and I can’t say enough about him as a guide. Ali Tangier Tours really went above and beyond. Ali checked in on us multiple times to make sure our experience was going well. Our experience was the complete Moroccan experience in and out and with out Abdul we would not have experienced half of what we got to. We are truly happy that we chose Ali Tangier tours and we can not say enough positive things. Thank you to Ali and Abdul for such an amazing time!
