Amazing Day Trip to Chefchaouen
Our driver, Youssef, from Tangier Excursions took us for a great day trip to Chefchaouen. The car was clean, nice and spacey, which was great for the long drive. We met our guide, Naima, who showed us around the blue city. We had an enjoyable day and we recommend it to everyone!
