From tangier
If you arrive by ferry, the first image you have will be from the sea, where you can sense the hustle and bustle of the port and the coming and going of boats and goods. From there you can walk to the historic quarter where the life of locals is played out, largely focused on commerce and tourism.
If you only have three or four days in the city, make sure you plan well, as you will need at least two days to explore the essential things to see in Tangier, including its museums, the medina, the souks and, naturally, the quiet beaches. And while you’re at it, you may as well set aside two more days to do some day trips in the surrounding area. Nearby excursions that may be of interest include the Hercules caves and the towns of Asilah and Tetouan. Although you can go alone, the best thing to do is visit as part of a guided tour so you can learn about the history of each of the places.
