08:30 AM - Hotel or port pickup in Tangier.

Enjoy a traditional Moroccan lunch at a local terrace restaurant near Plaza Uta el-Hammam.

02:00 PM - Guided cultural walking tour.

Meet your local guide for a walk through Chefchaouen's indigo-washed streets. You'll visit the 15th-century Kasbah and its gardens, explore small artisan weaving shops, and head up to Ras El-Maa, the natural spring where mountain water runs straight through the edge of town.

05:30 PM - Sunset at the Spanish Mosque.

Take a short, gentle walk up to the Spanish Mosque on the hill overlooking Chefchaouen, the best spot in town to watch the late afternoon light settle over the valley.

Meet your local mountain guide at the trailhead. Depending on how much walking you'd like to do, the route can be tailored to your preferred pace.

Option B (The Grand Waterfall): A full 4 to 5-hour round-trip trek deeper into the canyon leading to the towering 100-meter waterfall.

After the hike, rest by the river at one of the rustic outdoor spots near the trailhead for freshly cooked tagines, fresh bread, and mint tea right next to the water.
