Full description

Visit Chefchaouen, a beautiful blue door and white-walled medina that was originally a Berber post. The main square is the heart of Chefchaouen, with the 18th-century kasbah, a central mosque, and cafes with authentic Moroccan-style menus.
The market is a mix of traditional Moroccan and tourist souvenirs – it’s often very busy, but worth a visit for the bargains.
On your walking tour with your guide, explore the kasbah which was built by Moulay Ismail and is now practically a ruin next to the Great Mosque. Visit the charming main square and the souks that sell an array of goods. 
If you head to the Jewish quarter behind the jewelry souk, you will feel the difference between it and the main Arabic feel of the town.
Enjoy a small hike to discover the small waterfalls of Akchour, a natural beauty . A local tour guide is provided at Akchour.

Naoufal , the guide in the city, made our tour interesting, funny and very enjoyable. he was very patient and even helped us take the best pictures. Answered all our questions and even gave us to taste some tea and pastries 😋. lovely guy, a sweetheart. we ended our tour at akchour waterfalls, with our guide Mohammed Sancho. get ready for a laugh with him, he makes it funny and enjoyable which is appreciated coz it is kind of demanding walk. Plus he knows all the shortcuts and best pictures places. we will repeat it, definitely.
