Tangier sits at the very tip of Africa, a short ferry ride from Spain, and it has always been a city of writers, painters and travelers passing through. This private Tangier day tour shows you its best sides in a single day: the hilltop kasbah and its museum, the lanes of the medina, the Grand Socco square, a glass of mint tea at the cliffside Café Hafa, and the wild coast where the Atlantic and the Mediterranean meet.
Your English-speaking driver picks you up at your hotel, at the port or at the train station, and handles the hills and the parking so you can enjoy the views. The afternoon is all about the coast: the lighthouse at Cape Spartel and the Caves of Hercules, whose sea opening is said to resemble the map of Africa.
It is a great introduction if you arrive by ferry from Tarifa or by the high-speed train from Casablanca. To continue south, look at the day trip from Tangier to Chefchaouen.
