Cape Spartel: located at the Strait of Gibraltar where the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea meet. Enjoy views of Spain from the lighthouse.

The caves of Hercules: a mythical place, quite touristy nowadays.

The beaches of Achakar: huge sandy beaches on the Atlantic side: stop for a swim, a walk or just a mint tea!

Leisure visit of Asilah: A small white town whose ramparts cling to the rocks, Asilah is renowned for its crafts and art galleries. Stroll through the medina at your leisure. This old Portuguese city has kept its charm intact with its ramparts & its bastion, its donkeys in the medina, and the rifaines still in traditional costume who come to sell their products at the market.

Dinner and night in an eco-lodge guest house 7km south of Asilah: The Berbari.

Breakfast at Berbari guest house, then back on the road, towards the Mediterranean. 1h30 drive from Asilah to Tetouan, on the mediterranean coast.

Tetouan, a piece of Spain in Morocco. Little Granada, classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, surprises with its animation and its Spanish atmosphere. Lose yourself in its white medina: alleys covered with ribbed vaults, facades adorned with forged arabesques, rich Andalusian residences.

The secret mountains of the Rif are waiting for you. The 65 km/ 40 miles to reach blue city of Chefchaouen wind through the hinterland. Another face of the region, an old-fashioned rural life.

Arrival in Chefchouan in the afternoon and night in a lodge nearby.

Located 600 m (1970 ft) above sea level, it is built on the mountainside. Lose yourself in the small blue alleys. Take your time for pictures on some of the best instagrammable spots in the world.

Then visit the kasbah (garden and ethnographic museum), climb up to the sacred source of Ras El-Ma which springs

from the mountain, admire the work of the craftsmen weaving carpets. Walk up the path on the hill above the town: it's a sporty walk but the breathtaking view is worth it.

Return transfer to Tangier airport in the afternoon.
