You get a driver only. You are on your own to explore the spots he takes you to. Entry fees to the Cap Sparta lighthouse and Hercules Cave are not included. The camel ride is about 20 minutes on the beach. We had a very nice driver but got no information on what we were seeing.

These tour guides go above and beyond- they got us a car separate from the group when we thought we would miss our cruise departure

Great introduction to a beautiful city, rich in history. Camel ride was a blast. Tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly.
Nishelle_H, May 2026
we had a wonderful time with our Guide Taha! the camels rides on the beach was an amazing experience!
Julie_N, Apr 2026
Great overview of some of the key sites without having to devote a full day. The camel ride is very touristy, but fun!
Tami_G, Apr 2026
Private tour with Imad was incredible and the best way to do this particular tour. This was we could decide how little or how long to stay at each attraction and it suited us best. Imad was very knowledgeable and super accommodating. As someone who was born and raised here- you could tell they love where they are from! Would recommend private tour for this one 100%

Our driver was on time and shared so much about Tangier. We loved the lighthouse (go to the top! So worth it!) and the camel ride. It was the highlight of our weekend in Tangier

We had a wonderful first experience in Morocco as part of a day trip from Tarifa. Our guide, Taha, was kind and attentive, leading us around Tangier. We began at Perdicaris Park, viewed the point where the Strait of Gibraltar joins the Atlantic Ocean at Cap Spartel, rode camels on a north African beach, and then viewed the ocean from inside the Cave of Hercules. Taha returned us to the center of the medina so that we could explore on our own before returning to Tarifa by ferry. We highly recommend this as a way to experience Morocco in a short period of time!

Riding the camels was the highlight of our trip. In addition, our tour guide took us through some beautiful places on our way to the Hercules Cave. It was just enough time...not too long, not too short. Just an FYI, you have to descend down quite a few uneven steps to get to the camel ride but well worth it.
Maya_A, Apr 2026
We had a great time! Our guide was fun, kind, and had a lot of knowledge about the region which he shared with us during the car ride. Camel ride was also a fun experience, all in all we loved it.
Debbie_O, Mar 2026
Great tour; just long enough to see some fabulous sites and have an amazing camel ride along the ocean. Mohammed 67 was our guide; he was friendly, knowledgeable, and a great driver! Highly recommend this tour!
Justine_C, Mar 2026
Well organised. Our driver was knowledgeable and attentive. He genuinely went out our pace and we didn't feel rushed.
Andyn_M, Mar 2026
Our private tour was amazing! The tour guide was friendly and very knowledgeable! The private camel ride was lots of fun
Rakhi_D, Mar 2026
Mr. Khaled was punctual, polite, friendly and very good communicator. His English was very good so we could learn a lot from him. This was a wonderful day and do not hesitate to book this tour. All I feel customers should know is that Admission is not included at The Cap Spartel. You need to buy tickets for the lighthouse.
Lindsay_C, Mar 2026
Excellent knowledge and amazing experience for the kids! The guide was so great especially with the kids.
Christina_J, Mar 2026

Angelica_M, Mar 2026
Amazing time with this tour company! They were on time, experienced, friendly and professional. Camels were well taken care of and sweet.
Nicola_J, Mar 2026
Was a fun couple of hours, Khalid told us some history of Tangier as we were driving, the camels were great, a good half hour on board, and the caves and Cap Spartel were lovely to see. We had a great time 😃
Sarah_C, Feb 2026
Really enjoyable short tour to the “must see” sights outside Tangier. Visited the lighthouse and Hercules Cave. Mohammed 67 was knowledgeable and interesting about the points of interest on the tour - thank you!
Brian_M, Feb 2026
This was an excellent tour, and great value. Khaled was a superb guide and provides some great commentary throughout the tour. Great communication from him to find him outside the cruise port. Each site we stopped at was interesting and the highlight was the camel rides. Would definitely recommend.
Evan_L, Feb 2026
Excellent tour with our driver Khaled. Our pickup was on time and at the location provided. Appreciate his hospitality and careful driving, and the information provided.
diego_l, Jan 2026
Best value for money, no words to describe how fullfiling it was. 100% recommend if you want a overview of tangier
Ahmad_T, Jan 2026
Despite it was a rainy day, the car driver Abdelkader was very concious of that fact and made the trip memorable. He has good knowledge about Morocco especially Tangier. It was a great time
Swarup_K, Nov 2025
I think the experience was nice and smooth. Our driver Abdoul was on time to pick up us and showed us around quite a bit. Cave Hercules was a bit of a disappointment but thats not their fault.
Camel ride was great too!
Robert_S, Nov 2025
Great excursion! Camel rides were great. Tour driver did great job explaining the city of Tangiers. Would definitely do it again

Thank you for your feedback! We’re happy you enjoyed the exprience!
Andy_G, Nov 2025
Our family had a great time together on this excursion. Good chance to see the sights of Tangier. We particularly enjoyed the camel ride on the beach, but all the sights are beautiful! Our only improvement would be a little more information about the stops. We just pretty much got dropped off and free to go look around and then get back in the van. We are very thankful for them waiting for us as our ferry into Tangier was late. Overall, a great experience.
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're so glad your family enjoyed the tour and camel ride. We appreciate your feedback about adding more information at each stop — it helps us improve. Hope to see you again in Tangier!
Andrea_S, Nov 2025
Nice and good experience overseeing Tangier , camel ride was short but great. We saw were the Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea meet. Our guide and driver Jalal was great.
This company make sure their costumers are well taken care of.
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Thank you for your kind review! We’re happy you enjoyed the experience and that Jalal took great care of you. Hope to welcome you again!

We booked and paid easily over the phone. We went with the private tour option so the tickets were 60EUR per person rather than 30. I went with my wife, four small children, and my two parents. In light of the age range and needs of my family, private was definitely the way to go! We had a phenomenal time with our tour guide Ashraf who spoke at least five languages. He was knowledgeable and extremely engaging. The sunset camel ride was insane. It was on a wide open beach with very few tourists. And it was a long ride - we were probably on the camels for 20-30 minutes, which we did not expect. We skipped the Medina tour (opting to explore it on our own the following morning). Ashraf pointed us to his recommended restaurant. Good food but overpriced - I reckon the tour guides get to eat for free if they steer their clients there. A few buildings over the same food was about half the price. Anyway, phenomenal experience. They arrived on time and the van was comfortable.
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled you and your family had such a great experience with Ashraf and enjoyed the sunset camel ride. Your feedback means a lot to us
