FAQ

Tangier — good to know

Can I visit Tangier from Spain?+

Yes — a 1-hour ferry from Tarifa docks in Tangier Ville, right at the medina. It's Morocco's easiest day-trip from Europe.

How does Tangier compare to Marrakech?+

Tangier is smaller, cleaner and more European. Great for a 2-night stop; combine with Chefchaouen and Fes for a northern loop.
