Overview

From the imperial heart of Morocco to the Strait of Gibraltar, the 7 Days Golf Tour from Fes plays four very different settings in one week: olive groves in Fes, cedar forest in Ifrane, the Mediterranean coast near Tetouan and the pine-shaded fairways of Tangier. Between them come the medina of Fes and the blue lanes of Chefchaouen in the Rif Mountains.

One-way and private, this Fes to Tangier golf tour ends where Africa meets Europe, ideal for travelers flying home from Tangier or continuing by ferry to Spain. Pre-booked tee times, private transfers and licensed guides in each city keep the week relaxed for golfers and non-golfers alike.

Highlights

Itinerary

Day 1

Arrival in Fes ⇢ Hotel Transfer

At Fes-Saïss Airport, about 20 minutes from the city, a private driver collects you and your clubs for the transfer to your riad or hotel, the start of the 7 Days Golf Tour from Fes. The rest of the day is free to settle in.

In the evening, a rooftop terrace above the medina offers a first view over the old city as the call to prayer echoes across its minarets.

Day 2

Morning Golf ⇢ Evening Fes City Tour

The morning round is played at the Royal Golf de Fès, laid out among olive groves on the edge of the city with views of the Middle Atlas foothills. Its wide fairways and well-kept greens suit golfers of all levels.

In the afternoon, a licensed guide leads you into Fes el-Bali, the world’s largest car-free medieval city and a UNESCO World Heritage Site: the Bou Inania Madrasa, the Al Quaraouiyine, founded in 859, the Chouara Tannery and the souks of copper, leather and ceramics.

Day 3

Fes ⇢ Ifrane Golf Session ⇢ Cedar Forest ⇢ Fes

The road climbs into the Middle Atlas to Ifrane, the “Switzerland of Morocco”, where a golf session at around 1,600 m offers cool mountain air among cedars and oaks.

After lunch, a walk in the Azrou cedar forest brings you close to wild Barbary macaques, before the return to Fes for the night.

Day 4

Fes ⇢ Chefchaouen ⇢ Blue City Walk

The road heads north through olive groves and the foothills of the Rif to Chefchaouen, the blue city founded in 1471, about 4 hours away. In the afternoon, a guided walk leads through its painted lanes, the Outa el-Hammam square and the Ras el-Maa spring, before sunset from the Spanish Mosque.

Day 5

Chefchaouen ⇢ Tetouan ⇢ Afternoon Golf ⇢ Tangier

The morning drive reaches Tetouan, whose UNESCO-listed medina preserves the Andalusian heritage of families who came from Granada. In the afternoon, a round on a coastal course near Tetouan, facing the Mediterranean, is one of the most scenic of this Fes to Tangier golf tour.

The coast road then leads to Tangier for two nights.

Day 6

Morning Golf ⇢ Evening Tangier City Tour ⇢ Cap Spartel

A morning round at one of Morocco’s oldest golf clubs, among pines and eucalyptus near the city, is followed by a guided afternoon in the Kasbah, the medina, the Grand Socco and the American Legation.

The day ends at Cap Spartel, where the Atlantic meets the Mediterranean, and at the Caves of Hercules.

Day 7

Departure from Tangier

After breakfast, a private transfer takes you to Tangier Ibn Battouta Airport or the ferry port, for your flight home or the one-hour crossing to Spain.
