Tagesausflug nach Chefchaouen

We went on the tour with the FancyTours-Morocco tour operators. Our driver was Elghali and he was friendly and very conscientious of our welfare. We had an early start and Elghali stopped for coffee/breakfast and made sure we were fine. We made stops at view points to take photographs of the beautiful landscape. Elghali was extremely kind and gave us many bottles of water. The country side was green and boasted large Olive Groves, Grape Vineyards, Peach and Apple Orchards. We spent 3 hours in Chefchaouen before our trip back. It’s an interesting and picturesque city because of the colour theme. The Medina with the blue colour theme can take a few hours to explore and the shopping is oriented towards tourists. The Public washrooms (WC) at the main square are spotlessly clean. For lunch we had many restaurant choices and these were also situated around the main square. It is a long drive of about 3.5 hours from Fez. We were pretty quiet, listened to Moroccan music and then dozed most of the trip back. Drive from Tangier is around 2 hours and might be a better option if you are visiting Tangier.

My first trip to Morocco with family and as you are visiting new places you naturally a bit nervous to figure out which option is best and safest for you and your loved ones where they can enjoy the vacations well spent. We planned to visit Casablanca, Meknes, Fes and Marrakech with in the span of 7 days trip. There are multiple options to choose from flights not economical, trains a bit nervous to choose with kids get more luggage lastly drive there. Now it come to rent a car Or hire someone who not only knows stuff around well but also you feel safe with while traveling so I choose the later one. I find Fancy Tours for my trip from Casablanca to Meknes and Fes and end up meeting ElGhali. He is punctual, friendly, humble and honest person and safe driver. Trust me driving in the cities in Morocco is quite challenging. We had good conversation lot of questions to ask with ElGhali on our trip as we are curious on history and our next destinations. He is very polite person and answer them without irritation even kids like to talk to him as well due to his friendly nature. He showed us key historic monuments, Medina in Meknes and Fes which we thought we won’t be able to see in 2 day time period. He is very patient with stop over suggests good food on asking and help us out with some conversations on the shop keepers as well. I discussed with him the plan for visiting Chefchaoun the next day. He had other commitment but he ensured to get us hook up with another great person Ali from the same company who spent all day with us driving to and back to Fes and also very punctual, respectful and polite person. From Fes to Marrakech we had opportunity again to drive with ElGhali and he help us to get someone in touch for our trip around such as visiting the historic monuments, Atlas mountain and Ozzad falls. Our trip to Morocco is memorable thanks to the guidance from ElGhali whether it’s traveling with in the city or between the cities. If you are visiting Morocco - Remember Fancy Tours - ElGhali
