Tradition, culture and delicious food await on our Ceuta & Tétouan Day Trip. We'll visit these two cities on the African continent and discover their main monuments, as well as attend a traditional folk show.
Description
At the scheduled time, we'll pick you up from your chosen meeting point and head to the Port of Algeciras by bus. When we get there, we'll hop on a ferry that'll take us over to the African continent.
After we've spent 1 hour at sea crossing the Strait of Gibraltar, we'll arrive in Ceuta. We'll then head for the Morocco-Spain border. Once we've crossed the border, we'll take the bus to Tétouan, where we'll spend the next 5 hours.
To begin, we'll take a walking tour so we can see some of the most iconic spots of this Moroccan city. We'll stroll through Hassan II Square, where the Royal Palace is located, through the narrow streets of the old Jewish quarter and into the souk. The next stop will be in the Medina of Tetouan, a World Heritage Site that's famous for its white walls and green gates.
Following our guided tour of Tétouan, we'll take a break in a restaurant for lunch. While we enjoy our typical harira soup, couscous, kebabs, mint tea and Moroccan pastries, we'll watch a traditional folk show.
Once we've refuelled a little, we'll visit a Moroccan pharmacy. Here, we'll find a wide variety of natural products and discover the benefits of argan oil.
We'll get back on the bus and return to Ceuta to catch the ferry. On the way back to the port, we'll pass by some of the highlights of the city, such as the San Felipe Moat and the Royal Walls, which we'll be able to see from the bus.
Finally, after between 12 and 18 hours of adventure, we'll drop you back off at the starting point.
