The first stop is the legendary Hercules Caves, a site steeped in myth and mystery.

Here, you’ll find everything from ancient pottery to intricate Moroccan art, providing a comprehensive insight into the cultural heritage of Tangier.

Your next stop is the American Legation, a symbol of the long-standing diplomatic ties between Morocco and the United States. This historical building, the first American public property outside the United States, now serves as a museum and cultural center. It hosts a collection of art, historical documents, and memorabilia that tell the story of Moroccan-American relations and the rich cultural exchanges between the two nations.
