Its medina has been lovingly cared for with striking blue washed houses, red-tiled roofs and artistic doorways. Much of Chefchaouen was recreated by Andalusian refugees escaping the Inquisition at the end of the 14th century, so you might feel like you’re in the hills of Spain while exploring its streets. Jews, Muslims and Christians used to live here in harmony. Ease into the relaxed pace of life in this rural retreat. Take an orientation guided walk through the ancient medina and shop for handicrafts, or simply sit at a cafe and enjoy the pleasure of time passing by.

Then to the archeological site of Volubilis. (about 15 minuets drive)World Heritage-listed .Volubilis was one of the Roman empire’s most remote bases. The remains make an undeniably impressive sight as they come into view on the edge of a long, high plateau. When it was damaged by an earthquake in the 18th century, much of the marble was taken for construction in Meknes. Enjoy a tour of the ancient hilltop ruins with a local guide. Please remember to pack drinking water, hat, sunglasses and sun cream for this tour as it may get hot and you will be exposed to the sun.

After breakfast we’ll drive west to the coastal beach town of Essaouira. (About 3.5 hrs)

The name Essaouira means image, which is appropriate since it’s such a picturesque town. Its charm is undeniable; within the stone ramparts you’ll find whitewashed houses with bright blue shutters, art galleries and wood workshops. This laidback artists’ town is a former Portuguese trading colony and was once home to sizable Jewish populations. The town faces a group of rocky islands, called the Mogador, and is surrounded by an expanse of sandy beaches and dunes. It’s still a busy fishing port and its pretty harbor is filled with tiny mainly blue boats which go out early every morning for the day’s catch. Visitors who have been seduced by its charms include Orson Welles and Jimi Hendrix, who (according to local legend) spent much of his time here in the 1960s. More recently, filmmaker Ridley Scott chose the ramparts as an important location for his film, Kingdom of Heaven. As you’ll arrive late in the day, it is beautiful to stroll around. In the evening perhaps have some dinner with the group, as the local seafood is as fresh as it gets.

Breakfast and lunch included

Today, join a local guide for a walking tour through the old medina, Jewish mellah, port and skala (sea wall). Afterwards, use your free time to enjoy the town. The narrow streets of Essaouira are ideal for casual exploration. Their size discourages cars, and on walk through the town it feels as though little has changed since the days of sea pirates. The fishing port is a serious commercial operation and there’s much fun to be had observing the daily catch and its subsequent auction. A freshly-cooked plate of the day’s catch is highly recommended. Browse the plentiful shops and intriguing art galleries that make this little town a particularly pleasant place to unwind for a few days. It has a growing reputation for its unique art and its tiny shops that are built into the thick walls of the Portuguese ramparts. 

Relax by the beach …

Seafood dinner is special.
