Tangier Kasbah
Whitewashed lanes and Strait panoramas above the Medina.
Distance
Above the Medina walk from the port
Travel time
Additional 20–30 minutes from Grand Socco
Time needed

The Kasbah crowns Tangier's old quarter — calmer than the souks, with terrace views over the port and water.
Expect slopes and uneven surfaces.
Pair with Medina time rather than treating either as a drive-by.
