A private Tangier to Chefchaouen transfer is one of the easiest and prettiest short journeys in Morocco — around two hours through the green Rif hills from the northern coast to the blue mountain town. It's ideal straight off the ferry or a flight into Tangier, whether as a day trip or the first leg of a longer tour.
Comfortable, private and flexible, with a driver who knows the road well.

Into the Rif Mountains
The road from Tangier climbs gently into the Rif, with green hills and villages along the way, before Chefchaouen appears on its mountainside. The whole town is a study in blue — doorways, steps and walls — and rewards a few unhurried hours on foot.
