Trip and Transfer · Tarifa or Málaga (two options)

A private full day in Tangier

Trip and Transfer books your ferry, then gives your group its own local guide and air-conditioned car for about six hours in Tangier, with lunch and monument entries included. It is the cheapest private day on this site, and the one to pick if you want the medina without a coach group.

Private Tangier Full-Day Trip

About this experience

Trip and Transfer runs this as a private day for your group, with a guide in Spanish, English or French. The listing has two starting options (Tarifa or Málaga), and the meeting point depends on which one you pick. The plan is simple: ferry across in about an hour, roughly six hours in Tangier with the souk, the medina and the old town, then the ferry back. Ferry tickets, the car, the guide, lunch and monument entries are all included.

One line in the listing is muddled. It mentions a panorama and free time at a "Place des Cannons" before the ferry. Tangier's well-known cannon terrace is the Terrasse des Paresseux, where old guns face the bay, so this may belong to the Tangier part of the day. Ask the operator. The listing also says itineraries are subject to change, which on a private tour is usually a good thing: tell your guide what you want to see.

The catch is the record. There are only 7 reviews, rated 4.8, and the newest of them is from April 2025. Guests praise the guides by name (Abdellah, Rida) and their insight into Moroccan life. That's encouraging, but it's a small sample next to APARTRIP's 20 or the hundreds on the group trips.

Tips before you book

  • Check the meeting point for your option the day you book. It differs between Tarifa and Málaga.
  • Ask where the "Place des Cannons" stop is. It reads like Tangier's Terrasse des Paresseux.
  • Send the guide a short list of what you want: the Kasbah, the American Legation, a café above the Strait.
  • Ask which clock the return ferry is quoted in. Tangier is an hour behind Tarifa this winter.
