After breakfast in your riad/hotel at 08:30, go on our 1 Day trip from Fes to Chefchaouen, journeying north to delve into a distinct culture and lifestyle. Nestled at the feet of the Rif Mountains, Chefchaouen derives its name from the mountain peaks resembling horns, a symbol of its rugged beauty. Established in 1471 as a fortress by Moulay Ali Ben Moussa, a direct descendant of Prophet Mohammed, Chefchaouen later saw Spanish occupation until its emancipation in 1956. Renowned as the “blue city,” Chefchaouen traditional buildings are adorned in hues of blue, creating a surreal atmosphere.

As you wander through the enchanting streets, the dreamy ambiance of Chefchaouen captivates the senses, offering a glimpse into a world of azure-hued tranquility. Explore the medina’s white and blue-washed walls and peruse the vibrant markets teeming with unique native handicrafts. Along the old road to Larache, discover remnants of Spanish influence, including a ruined mosque with tower stairs still intact. Return to Fes around 18:00 PM, where our 1 Day trip to Chefchaouen from Fes concludes with drop-off at your hotel.

→ Frequently Asked Questions

The scenic drive through the Rif Mountains takes approximately 3.5 to 4 hours each way. Because you are traveling on a private day trip with Culture Morocco Tours, you will travel in total comfort and can ask your driver to pull over for photos or restroom breaks whenever you need.

 

We actually recommend exploring Chefchaouen on your own. Unlike the massive, maze-like medina of Fes, Chefchaouen is quite small, laid-back, and very easy to navigate. You will have a wonderful time simply wandering the blue alleys, taking photos, and relaxing at a cafe in the Outa el Hammam main square.

 

We highly recommend wearing comfortable walking shoes, as the medina is built on a hillside and involves walking up and down steps. Because Chefchaouen is located in the mountains, the weather can be a bit cooler than in Fes, so bringing a light jacket or sweater is always a smart idea.
