Casablanca to Tangier

We left Casablanca this morning and travelled for 4.5 hours to reach the city of Tangier, known as the gateway to Africa. It is a melting pot with culture, cuisine and language coming from North Africa, Spain, Portugal and France. We walked for 2 hours visiting the Kasbah, grand souk, and the old Medina. This port city offered panoramic views of Gibraltar and Tarifa and the meeting point between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. On our way out of the city we saw a migrant town where many people gather to try and get to “the other side of the world”, Europe. Sadly some try and swim to Spain but not all are successful. We are now heading to Chefchaouen, another 2.5 hours away.Read more
