The old center (Medina) of Chefchouan is completely painted blue and therefore has a nice and friendly atmosphere. Like other cities, it does not have a center full of stalls with pushy sellers, but often small shops sell their goods without being pushy. There are plenty of locations to eat or drink something. However, you must be able-bodied to overcome the height differences using the many stairs. This city center is also quite large, so you can really spend at least half a day there.

This blue town was my dream. I enjoyed a lot and all this blue everywhere was real pleasure for my eyes. I really recommend this place as must to see in Morocco. Lovely place... we spent really nice time there.

I never even heard of this place until we went there. But its breathtaking and has lots of great stuff to see. It is worth the trip there even if it is off your path. Of all the places we visited, this was perhaps the highlight of our trip.

Also known as “the blue city”, it’s a beautiful wonder of life and culture weaved meticulously into the mountains. Spectacular views and vibrant colours that are simultaneously cool and kind on the mountains eyes. Really worth going! Worth thinking about what to wear - whites and blues would be nice for great photos! Also, need cash - not credit cards!

Chefchaouen was always a place I had wanted to visit. The images you see of it are always colourful and enticing. For us, it didn’t disappoint. You get your first glimpse of the city on the road as you are approaching it. Here you will find small cafes and shops and viewpoints. Once you drive into the city it is busy. It has beautiful pavement areas and green spaces. You don’t really get a sense of how pretty it is until you are exploring it on foot. The medina is enchanting and every bit as wonderful as I hoped it would be. It is a labyrinth of blue and white coloured alleyways, many providing really amazing backgrounds for photographs. There are lots of stalls, cafes and restaurants. We just loved meandering the streets. The Blue City definitely has a nice vibe. It’s a friendly place and its location is in a beautiful part of Northern Morocco. It commands wonderful views across the surrounding countryside. Our trip was possibly made easier as we had a hire car. Chefchaouen isn’t close to many of the favoured cities of Morocco, such as Casablanca, Fes and Marrakesh. The roads are good and driving there does not pose any issues. It is well signed. We were really pleased we made the effort to visit and would definitely recommend it.

Chefchaouen medina was more manageable viz-a-viz Fes. Every corners you turned were photogenic. Most of the restaurants were found in the main square, Plaza Uta El Hamman and the main street besides the square. There is a bakery shop called Pain in the square that sells very good breads and cakes. Google maps were not very useful here. The best way was to ask the locals for directions.

Always a pleasure to return to this peaceful city, perched on the slopes of the Rif. This time it was a discovery shared with our French friends. As soon as you set foot in Chefchaouen, you have the impression of going back in time, transported by its blue alleys, imprinted with history and simplicity. Chefchaouen is a real joy for those who seek authenticity away from the superfluous. Here, we slow down the pace, change our gaze and let ourselves be guided by the charm of the place. Strolling through the medina is a new experience at every turn, with small surprises that enrich the visit, such as exchanges with warm and welcoming locals. For those who are visiting for the first time: be respectful and friendly, the locals will return it to you well. The city is very secure, and do not worry about stray dogs and cats, they are mostly vaccinated and non-aggressive. And above all, consider asking before taking pictures of the inhabitants – a small gesture that makes all the difference. Chefchaouen is much more than just a getaway, it is a journey through time and an immersion in a unique sweetness of life. Thanks to Chefchaouen and its inhabitants! 💙💙💙

Chefchaouen, Morocco is famous for its pale-blue coloured buildings. The Medina is old, but the concept of painting the buildings blue is a modern marketing strategy - and it worked! No need for a guided tour, as it is fairly easy to figure things out with an on-line guide. If you get lost, start walking downhill!

The Chefchauen old city should be maybe the first priority when you visit Morocco. To get to Chefchauen from Casablaca is by car or you can take train to Tanger and then go by bus to Chefchauen. The walls of the city are painted blue and it looks amazing so you can shoot great pictures for your instagram.

The visit to the village was great. It's so beautiful!! Very friendly people and our very friendly guide, we took a lot of pictures. We ate at a restaurant called Assaada. It's a house full of terrazzos and recesses. We were in a room for ourselves overlooking the square. We ate great, it was delicious. We ordered the avocado and orange juice...of 10. The couscous dish was huge. I would go again without hesitation.
