4-Day Chefchaouen and Akchour Tour from Tangier
Tangier is the closest departure point to the Rif, which makes this the most efficient way to see the blue town and its waterfall valley without a long drive on either end.
6-Day Middle Atlas Tour from Tangier
A cooler, slower route for travellers who'd rather trade a second desert crossing for cedar forests and mountain air: Ifrane is a realistic add-on from Tangier by way of Fez.
6-Day Family Morocco Tour from Tangier
A shorter, easier-paced northern loop for families: no desert crossing, fewer long driving days, and stops kids tend to actually enjoy, like the Akchour walk and Rabat's tram-friendly old town.
