AKCHOUR WATERFALLS | DAY TRIP FROM CHEFCHAOUEN | MOROCCO
Hiking to Akchour Waterfall or God’s bridge is recommended to anyone staying a couple of days in Chefchaeoun. We chose to see the Akchour waterfalls without a guide. We took a Grand taxi costing 25 dirhams each (6 people max). Fortunately, we did not have to wait at all for the taxi to fill up. The taxi journey from Chefchaouen took 30mins with beautiful sceneries along the way. There are souvenir stalls and restaurants at the beginning of the hike and also along the way.
There are 2 waterfalls: one big & small. Took us about 50mins to reach the first small waterfall with photo sessions time included and another 1hr from there to the big waterfall. There were a good number of people at the waterfall by the time we reached there but it was not crowded.
It is worth going to see the waterfall if you have time to spare.

I started the day off in the most perfect way, watching the sun rise from the rooftop of my Riad in Fez. I then made my way to Chefchaouen, a.k.a The Blue City bus (which broke down on the way there) I ate some lovely Moroccan tajine when I got there that night. The next day I explored the beautiful blue medina, visited the Spanish Mosque twice, one witnessing a lovely sunset (must see).

Chefchaouen: Inside Morocco's Blue City
Morocco's 'Blue City'. Chefchaouen is best-known for its colorful buildings, a centuries-old tradition kept alive today. CCTV's Clementine Logan met some of its residents to find out more.
CHEFCHAOUEN | Blue Pearl of MOROCCO
21st- 24th Sept 2018
HOW TO GET THERE: Train from Rabat to Souk Al Arbaa (2hrs), then take a bus (2hrs 40m) 5 dirhams for luggage storage in bus
Chefchaouen, one of the prettiest towns in Morocco, a blue washed mountain village, nicknamed the ‘’Blue Pearl of Morocco’’ is indeed a rare stunning gem. It was 6yrs ago when I first stumbled upon a picture of this dreamlike place & it certainly was a dream come true when we finally arrived here.
Chefchaouen’s medina is one of the loveliest in Morocco. Wander aimlessly and take in the beauty of this blue city. Shopping is definitely recommended here as you rarely get hassled in shops or restaurants compared to other parts of Morocco.
This is a cat city for sure. You’ll find cats in alleys, on stairs, in the souks, roaming through restaurants and on terraces.
The Kasbah is a heavily restored walled fortress that now contains a lovely garden & a small museum.
From the Spanish mosque hilltop, you will have a grand view of the entire town sprawling over the green hills below. Sunset viewing highly recommended.
Shouldn’t miss the Cascades d’ Akchour, a pair of waterfalls, 1 small & 1 large, nestled in the Rif mountains about 45mins drive away.
We stayed 3 nights but people do day trips to Chefchaouen too.

Top 5 Places to Visit in Northern Morocco
Back in the fall of 2013, I visited Morocco for the second time and spent five days exploring the northern part of the country. We based ourselves out of the city of Tangier and took day trips to visit all of the places you’re going to see in this video. In this video, I’m going to walk you through the top 5 places to visit in northern Morocco. Are you ready? Let’s go!
My Film Making Kit ►
Asilah, which is located about thirty kilometers south of Tangier, or roughly a forty-minute drive. This former Phoenician settlement dates back to 15oo B.C., and in its history has been a part of both Portugal and Spain in addition to Morocco most recently. Asilah is a fortified town, and its bastions, ramparts, and gate works are still fully intact. The bastions give the town a unique, secluded feel, and are the perfect place to catch Asilah’s spectacular sunsets. Asilah hosts annual music, arts, and culture festivals, including the International Festival, which features art exhibitions and jazz and Moroccan music, and a world-famous mural-painting festival.
Caves of Hercules, also known as Les Grottes d’Hercule. Located about 14 kilometers west of Tangier, or about 30 minutes by car, these caves are steeped in legend. According to legend, these grottos are where the mythological hero rested after he completed the twelve labors that ensured his immortality. Inside, these partially man-made caves are massive, and you can walk through to many other caves. Much of the cavern’s interior was created while quarrying for millstone, which left marks that are still visible. The cave’s most distinctive feature is its opening to the sea, the Map of Africa, which resembles the continent of Africa in reverse and changes color throughout the day as the tides shift and the time changes.
Chefchaouen, known as “Morocco’s Blue City,” which gets its nickname from the beautiful, blue-tinged buildings that the city is well-known for. Chefchaouen’s Medina, or old Arab quarter, is a colorful and vibrant labryinth of narrow streets and alleys that is best explored by simply getting lost and wandering on foot, so be sure to wear comfortable walking shoes. If you want to avoid the tourist traps of the main square when you’re ready to eat, check out Tissemlal Restaurant in the Casa Hassan Hotel. It serves up mouthwatering local foods for reasonable prices, and is perfect for groups of all sizes.
Tangier, my home base during my time in northern Morocco. Beyond the gates of the medina, you’ll find hundreds of winding cobblestone streets, along which you’ll find lots of shops, open markets, restaurants, tea shops, and hotels. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes; the street layout is complex and there are some uphill climbs. At some point, take a few minutes to kick back with a mint tea and do some people watching at one of Tangier’s open-air cafes. Cafe culture is king in Tangier! For a pair of great souvenirs, buy a jalaba, which is a traditional jalaba gown, and traditional leather balghas, which are high-quality, heelless slippers that come in a variety of colors. If you can’t make it to the Sahara, I suggest going to Tangier Beach and spending 5 Euros to go on a thirty-minute camel ride. The ride is bumpy, but worth it! For the best dining in the city, I highly recommend Riad Tanja, which features live music every night and serves delicious moroccan tangines in an intimate dining space, and El Morocco Club, where you’ll eat mouthwatering Moroccan fusion cuisine.
Tetouan, one of Morocco’s two major ports on the Mediterranean, which lies just a few miles south of the Strait of Gibraltar and sixty kilometers east-southeast of Tangier. The city’s Berber name literally translates to “the eyes.” Tetouan’s medina is a UNESCO World Heritage site. There, you can find craftsmen like jewelers, weavers, and leather workers, and street vendors who try to sell carpets to tourists. Another point of interest in the city is the Royal Palace, which sits along a public square near one of the entrances to the medina.

Fes Chefchaouen Day Trip
No visit to Morocco would be complete without a visit to the magical CHEFCHAOUEN. In the morning early, your Moroccan private driver will take you to the North of Morocco Chefchaouen or Chaouen who was founded in 1471 as a small fortress by Moulay Ali Ben rashed. It is known as the «blue city» for its indigo blue walls and colorful narrow streets and traditional buildings. It was under the Spanish occupation and was emancipated in 1956, that’s why when you will be there you will feel and touch a huge Spanish influence in the culture, and architecture.

The Blue Doors of Chefchaouen, Morocco
The famous Blue Doors of Chefchaouen. Not all of them. But on our all day walk, it felt like we saw all the doors in the whole city. Located at the foot of the Rif mountains, Chefchaouen has more honest charm than anywhere else we saw in Morocco. It is the sort of village-lost-in-time (but not) that you build a trip around.

COME WITH ME TO MOROCCO! ???? ???? ✈️
So I went to Barcelona (that special vlog coming soon) last year for my annual NYE trip! While there I hopped over to Morocco to see the Motherland for the very first time!
The country is so beautiful and bursting at the seams with color! The famous Blue City, the herb and spice souks, the architecture...Morocco is truly magical!
I'll update this description soon with the link to the blog with more pics and a thorough run down!
We spent 2.5 days there and stayed at the Movenpick Mansour Marrakech, the stay was sponsored by my friends at Going Places Travel!

The Blue City of Chefchaouen, Morocco
The Blue City of Chefchaouen, Morocco
►Read the blog:
Today we are exploring Chefchaouen, internationally known as the blue city of Morocco. The name means horns of a goat which is in reference to the two peaks which are behind the city.
A walk through the mountain city of Chefchaouen is perhaps the most scenic stroll one could have in Morocco. Narrow streets and alleys lead you through a colorful city with a 500-year-old fort at its center.
There are several theories as to why the city is painted blue, but the consensus is that Jews escaping the Spanish inquisition in the late 1400s arrived and started the tradition. It’s definitely a place where you’ll need to wear comfortable walking shoes.
I asked around for a good place to eat and many people suggested Casa Hassan. The restaurant is located one block away from the Kasbah. The food here is delicious! It's about 80 dinar for a three course meal.
If you’re in Tangier or Fes, Chefchaouen is a great day trip option, but I suggest spending the night so you don’t feel rushed. Don’t forget your camera for this place! There is a photo opportunity around every corner.
There you have the blue city of Chefchaouen, Morocco! Have any other tips about the city? Leave a comment below!
