Tetouan Day Trip from Marbella: a Private Day in Morocco

Our Tetouan day trip from Marbella takes you to Tetouan, the UNESCO-listed “white dove”, privately and at your own pace. From Marbella, you reach Tarifa port (about 1 h 15 for 105 km by road), cross the Strait of Gibraltar in about an hour and meet your guide at the exit of Tangier Ville port. An Andalusian medina, craft souks and, depending on the season, the Martil seafront.

BBK Tours is a licensed tourist-transport company based in Morocco: we run the whole Moroccan part. The road transfer in Spain to Tarifa port is arranged on request with a partner operator, and the Tarifa – Tangier ferry ticket is booked in your name by us, or you can buy it yourself.

How does the Tetouan day trip from Marbella work?

Allow about 1 h 15 for 105 km by road between Marbella and Tarifa, then one hour on the Baleària or AML ferry to Tangier Ville port. Your private driver then takes you to Tetouan: about 1 h (60 km) by road, in an air-conditioned vehicle reserved for your group.

What to see in Tetouan

Nicknamed “the white dove”, Tetouan sits against the Rif mountains, an hour from Tangier. Its medina, a UNESCO World Heritage site, blends Andalusian heritage and Moroccan traditions: souks grouped by craft, the Royal Palace square, the old Jewish quarter of the Mellah and monumental gates such as Bab Okla. With your guide you discover zellige tilework and leather crafts, then, weather permitting, the Martil seafront on the Mediterranean.

Good to know

A valid passport is required to enter Morocco: an ID card is not enough. Morocco is on GMT, so Spain is one hour ahead in winter and two in summer; the programme below is in Moroccan time. In strong easterly wind the ferry can be cancelled: we then move your trip to another date with you. To book your Tetouan day trip from Marbella, send us the date and the ferry times you would like: we confirm the programme and the total price before you leave.
