3.Day trip to Tangier by ferry with lunch and tour guide

★★★★★★★★★★3.8 · 140 reviews · 9 hours · from $105

This nine-hour Tarifa to Tangier trip pairs a one-hour Baleària ferry with a local guide, air-conditioned transport, Moroccan lunch, Hercules Caves, Cap Spartel, the Kasbah, Medina, and souk. Guides may speak English, Spanish, French, or German. Choose a 9:00 AM or 11:00 AM departure, and bring your passport.

“The guide was friendly and funny. We were a bit surprised by the change of itinerary, we didn’t see the caves, nor the lighthouse which were one of the main reasons to book. The change was caused by the ferry schedule, the 19:00 return ferry was out for repairs so the entire visit was shortened in order to catch the 17:00. Other than that, good option to get an ideea on the city vibe. Lunch restaurant was lovely and they even cooked separately for me, which I highly appreciated.”
