Description du circuit
Tangier spent forty years as an international zone governed by nine countries at once, and it shows in what people eat. Spanish bocadillos, Moroccan tagines and a chickpea tart called kalinti - from the Spanish caliente, hot - sold from carts all day.
We start in the Grand Socco market for olives, cheese, bread and preserved lemons, then eat kalinti hot from the tin with cumin and harissa. From there we walk into the medina, through the Petit Socco, whose cafes were the centre of the city's louche mid-century literary scene, for mint tea and sfenj.
The centrepiece is a fixed-menu seafood house in a stairway off Rue de la Liberte: fish soup, a plate of grilled fish and prawns, and fruit with honey, at a price that does not change and a queue that does not shorten. It has been run by the same family for decades and it does not take bookings.
We finish above the city at a clifftop cafe that has been serving mint tea on terraces cut into the rock since 1921, looking across the Strait to Spain on a clear day.
Small group, maximum 10 guests, with one taxi transfer.

Autres remarques
Runs daily, with a late-morning departure at 10:00 and an evening one at 17:00.
The seafood house does not take reservations and can involve a wait at busy times. Your guide joins the queue ahead of the group where possible; the wait is built into the schedule.
Touting in Tangier is milder than in Marrakech but present around the port and the Petit Socco. Our guides are licensed and will handle it.
Ramadan: daytime service largely stops; we switch to an evening tour for those weeks - ask us.
Alcohol: available in licensed bars and hotels in Tangier, but not at any stop on this route.
Water and hygiene: bottled water only; we use cooked-to-order and high-turnover stalls.
Dietary needs: tell us at least 48 hours ahead. The seafood house is fixed-menu, so tell us in advance if anyone cannot eat fish and we will substitute a tagine house.
About 2 km of walking with a climb into the kasbah, plus one taxi transfer. Not ideal for limited mobility.
