Beautiful Blue City
With all the sights that Morocco has to offer, my partner and I were very interested in visiting the "Blue City" of Chefchaouen. After looking at a few options, we decided to go with Happy Moroccan Tours. A driver picked us up from our riad and collected a few other members of the group to a car which then drove to another collection point to set off to Chefchaouen in a van. The drive was about 3 hours, though we did get a 20 minute break at a cafe for breakfast and coffee. Once we got outside the medina, the driver let us know where he would be waiting and gave us about 4 hours to explore. The medina is pretty compact compared to Fes, so it was easy to wander and navigate. Each twist and turn gave us a different blue pathway or doorway to photograph. There is enough time to stop and have lunch at one of the restaurants within the medina. The drive back took about 3 hours as well and we actually were dropped off at the Carrefour in the New City as requested, since that was on the way back. We thought it was a great day trip, though you will be spending more time in a car than you actually get in the city itself.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for the review

Mohamed was a great...
Mohamed was a great driver and was considerate when I accidentally put the incorrect hotel information for my pickup. He still picked me up and made sure we were comfortable along the way for the ride. We got to tour chefchauen for 3 hours (which is plenty of time) and had a beautiful ride back with the weather being cool. We had fun

Magical City, basic tour operation
Chefchaouen is a truly magical city. Certainly touristic and full of souvenir shops, but it is such a uniquely picturesque city with picture taking spots at every turn. I also found the food to be better than I had in Fes. As for this “tour”, it is very basic—-driving you the three hours back and forth, providing plenty of rest stops (a few with viewpoints that you would not be able to stop off at by bus). You should know that bus tickets to Chefchaouen is around 10 USD, so there’s about a >2x markup for taking the van. The tour is a nonspeaking tour—a local boy walks you around the city.

Chefchaouen Day Trip! The Blue Pearl: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Fez.
How much does Chefchaouen Day Trip! The Blue Pearl cost?
+
Prices start at €28 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Fez usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Chefchaouen Day Trip! The Blue Pearl take?
+
Plan for about 11 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Fez is not rushed.
Is Chefchaouen Day Trip! The Blue Pearl worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 79 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 59 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Fez, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Chefchaouen Day Trip! The Blue Pearl?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Chefchaouen Day Trip! The Blue Pearl suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 11-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Chefchaouen Day Trip! The Blue Pearl?
+
Around 21 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Fez can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Fez and add a light layer if any part of the 11-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Chefchaouen Day Trip! The Blue Pearl start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Fez within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Fez?
+
On Outty we rank every Fez experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Fes to Marrakech: Merzouga & Ait Ben Haddou, 3 Days 2 Nights, Fes to Marrakech desert tour 3 days, 2Days groupe Tour Fes To Fes Or Marrakech Via Sahara Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Fez?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Fez?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Chefchaouen Day Trip! The Blue Pearl?
+
Included: Hotel pickup and drop-off; In-vehicle air conditioning; and Transport by air-conditioned minivan. Not included: Food and drinks. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Chefchaouen Day Trip! The Blue Pearl include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 144 listed pickup locations in and around Fez. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Chefchaouen Day Trip! The Blue Pearl offered in?
+
It is offered in English, Italian, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Chefchaouen Day Trip! The Blue Pearl?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
