    Great excursion for the...

    Great excursion for the short highlights! We booked this tour since we were in Tangier for a day on a cruise ship and we had plenty of time to get there and get back. The tour was about 3 hours, you had time on your own at both the caves and Cap Spartel, they’re not guided stops. You also need about 130 dirhams each total for the two stops to get in, cash only. We enjoyed the camel ride, it was about 5-10 minutes on the camels which was plenty of time. We did feel the camels looked a little tired of back to back rides with tourists, but some other camels were resting up the hill from the beach so hopefully they work in shifts. Overall great communication and Ayoud was a great guide driving us around!

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your great review and for choosing us during your cruise stop in Tangier! We truly appreciate you sharing the helpful tip with future travelers about bringing cash for the optional entrance fees to the Caves and Cap Spartel. We also want to warmly reassure you regarding the camels—animal welfare is very important to the local handlers, and they absolutely do work in shifts so that the resting camels on the hill can recover properly between rides!

    Good fun with few problems

    AC in the van was not strong enough. Camel ride was fun. The driver dropped us 2 Km from the ship! We were not aware that the Hercules Cave requires cash in local currency.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your review! We're thrilled you had fun on the camel ride, but we're sorry for the hiccups along the way. We completely hear you on the AC—we are having that van serviced immediately to make sure it's keeping everyone cool. Regarding the drop-off, port security regulations unfortunately don't allow our private vehicles past the main gates. We did our best to give a heads-up about this in our WhatsApp messages when we arranged to meet outside the port, but we totally understand that the walk back to the ship can still be tiring after a long day! As for the Hercules Cave, while our tour description does already state that entrance fees are not included and must be paid in cash, we will look into making this detail even more visible so guests are never caught by surprise. We truly appreciate your helpful feedback. We hope you had a fantastic rest of your cruise!

    Camel / Spartel tour

    Tour covered the caves and camel ride. Omar did a good job of giving us some history on some of the sites and getting us back to our cruise ship on time.

    Response from the operator: Hello and thank you for your feedback. We are pleased to hear you enjoyed the excursion and that Omar provided valuable historical insights while ensuring your punctual return to your cruise ship. We appreciate you choosing Xauen Tours for your time in Tangier!

    Great experience. The...

    Great experience. The camel ride on the beach was amazing. Got to see a lot of things I wouldn’t of done by myself from Tangier.

    Response from the operator: Dear Joseph, thank you for your great review! We are delighted that you enjoyed the amazing camel ride on the beach and that our excursion allowed you to effortlessly discover sights outside the city that are hard to reach on your own. Providing these unique, hassle-free experiences is exactly what we aim for.

    From Tangier: Cap Spartel and Hercules Cave with Camel Ride: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tangier.

    How much does From Tangier: Cap Spartel and Hercules Cave with Camel Ride cost?

    +

    Prices start at $31 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tangier usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does From Tangier: Cap Spartel and Hercules Cave with Camel Ride take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 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 Tangier is not rushed.

    Is From Tangier: Cap Spartel and Hercules Cave with Camel Ride worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 81 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 211 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tangier, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule From Tangier: Cap Spartel and Hercules Cave with Camel Ride?

    +

    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 From Tangier: Cap Spartel and Hercules Cave with Camel Ride suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book From Tangier: Cap Spartel and Hercules Cave with Camel Ride?

    +

    Around 74 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 Tangier 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 Tangier and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does From Tangier: Cap Spartel and Hercules Cave with Camel Ride 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 Tangier 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 Tangier?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Tangier experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include From Tangier Private Full Day-Trip to Chefchaouen, 7 days Tour from Tangier to Marrakech Morocco Tours, 3h Private Walking Tour in Tangier Kasbah Medina & Colorful Souks. 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 Tangier?

    +

    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 Tangier?

    +

    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.
