At the northern tip of Morocco, Tangier blends African, Arab, and European influences into one striking coastal city. A private Tangier tour offers a deeper, more personal way to explore its layered identity—where ancient medinas meet modern boulevards, and Atlantic breezes sweep through spice-scented markets.

Every corner reveals something different: faded elegance, bold street art, sunlit cliffs. With your private tour, you move beyond the surface and experience the city’s real texture—step by step, story by story.
 <h3>Top 10 Must-See Attractions in Tangier</h3>
Start your journey with Tangier’s most iconic landmarks—places where history stands tall, beauty unfolds with every step, and the city’s unique character shines through.

Kasbah Museum
 Housed in a former palace, the museum displays Moroccan art, ancient coins, and archaeological finds. Arched courtyards and Andalusian gardens surround the collection, with panoramic views over the port.

Tangier Medina
 A labyrinth of alleys lined with textiles, spices, and carved doorways. This is the historic and cultural heart of the city, alive with colour, scent, and movement.

Café Hafa
 Terraced above the sea since 1921, this café serves mint tea with views over the Strait of Gibraltar. The whitewashed walls and simple benches create a timeless setting.

Grand Socco
 This busy plaza links the old city and the new. Palm trees, fountains, and vendors surround the square, making it a lively hub of daily life.

American Legation Museum
 The only U.S. National Historic Landmark outside the U.S., featuring art, photos, and letters documenting Moroccan-American history since the 18th century.

St. Andrew’s Church
 An Anglican church built with Moroccan design elements. Arabic calligraphy decorates its interior, and surrounding gardens offer a quiet pause from the city.

Dar el Makhzen
 Former residence of sultans, now an arts and crafts museum. Inside, find carved wood, zellij tilework, and exhibits highlighting regional traditions.

Petit Socco
 Once frequented by writers and spies, this small square is now lined with cafés and shops. The architecture reflects Tangier’s international past.

Cap Spartel
 A scenic cliff where the Atlantic and Mediterranean meet. The lighthouse, set against crashing waves and open sky, marks Morocco’s northwestern point.

Caves of Hercules
 Seaside caves steeped in myth. A natural opening shaped like the African continent looks out onto the sea, making it one of Tangier’s most iconic views.
 <h3>Explore Tangier Off the Beaten Path</h3>
Ready to slip beyond the postcard scenes? These lesser-known spots offer a more intimate view of Tangier—quiet corners, creative spaces, and places filled with soul.

Ibn Battuta’s Tomb
 Unmarked and modest, the tomb honours one of history’s greatest travellers. Tucked in the medina, it’s a quiet tribute amid the city’s bustle.

Fondouk Chejra
 A former merchant inn now home to traditional carpet weavers. Watch the process and explore a preserved corner of Tangier’s trading past.

Rue de la Liberté
 This central street blends colonial-era façades with small shops and vintage storefronts. Art deco signs and faded elegance hint at Tangier’s cosmopolitan history.

Marshan Neighborhood
 A peaceful residential area with wide streets, gardens, and early 20th-century homes. The atmosphere shifts from busy to serene within a few blocks.

Old Cinemas
 Scattered throughout the city, these now-closed theatres from the 1930s and ’40s feature curved balconies and retro signage—remnants of Tangier’s golden age of film.

Local Hammams
 Public bathhouses where locals follow time-honoured cleansing rituals. Interiors are simple, steamy, and tiled, with hot stone slabs and vaulted rooms.

Villa Harris Park
 A restored mansion turned coastal park, lined with palms and sea views. A mix of formal gardens, walking paths, and modern sculptures invite a slower pace.

Souk Dakhli
 A working market filled with fresh produce, herbs, and housewares. Far from the tourist trail, this souk reflects the city’s everyday rhythms.
