Embark on a day trip from Fes to Chefchaouen, often referred to as the captivating “Blue Pearl” of Morocco. Departing from your Riad or hotel around 8 AM after breakfast, this excursion leads you to a city celebrated for its mesmerizing blue architecture. Situated near Tangier and the Spanish enclave of Ceuta, Chefchaouen’s distinctive allure is accentuated by the mountain peaks that resemble goat horns. Discover lively markets that showcase a variety of local handicrafts, providing an opportunity to purchase unique items such as wool clothing, woven blankets, and the famous local goat cheese. In addition to the city’s cultural wealth, explore the scenic countryside, known for its significant production of kief, which has established Chefchaouen as a key player in Morocco’s cannabis industry. Engage with the burgeoning tourism sector, particularly favored by Spanish travelers during Catholic holidays, and delve into the historical visit of Joe Orton and Kenneth Halliwell in 1967, which adds an intriguing dimension to Chefchaouen’s rich cultural narrative.
