Traveler reviews
Beautiful place to visit.
We loved the experience. The guide was very professional.
Worth the wait...
The travel/passport/embarkation time takes the bulk of the time. A meeting time of 8:00am meant we did not board till 9:00 and did not sail until 10:00, Only half that time on the return. Essentially time in Tangiers was 5 hours. but was worth it. I expected more from the lunch, the images showed 4 courses and a variety. However we got soup, main meal with chicken skewers and a biscuit after. Drinks were 2Euros for 200ml fruit juice or coke. After being showed spice and weaving craftsmen there was plenty of time to wander around at your leisure.
Horrible tour company, so unprofessional
Absolutely awful! We took a 2 hour bus ride from Cadiz and got to the meeting place at the ferry terminal and ferries weren't running due to high winds. The tour company never notified us. I called them and they didn't seem at all concerned that they cancelled the tour without letting us know. Terrible!
Disappointing
Our tour time changed with less than 12 hours notice. We did not see the change until 1 hour before our scheduled time the following communications was very confusing with conflicting information and conflicting reasons for the change of time. I felt they did not care about us - only what suited them
Adequate but disappointing
Problem with ferry in Tarifa caused a lengthy delay without any explanation. Finally a tour guide from another tour took matters in hand and arranged for another ferry company in port to take us. No one from our tour company was there and available to help us. When we arrived in Tangiers 1-1/2 hours late our guide was still waiting. The tour consisted of a lot of bus time touring areas around Tangiers. Our guide, Rashid, was vey informative but in a large bus the view of the surroundings was greatly diminished. Our experience with the market was limited to a walk through. We then took a long walk through the narrow and hilly streets of the Casbah. Too long and too much of the same. Then because of the late start our free time at the end for shopping was greatly reduced. The best part of the tour was our guide, Rashid, who kept us informed and motivated.
