Do you have aspirations to visit the fascinating locations depicted in the novel-to-TV adaptation? In that case, even if you just have a few days to spare, our 3-day tour departing from Tangier will be your ideal vacation. You can see all the details here.
Based on the Mara Duenas novel, a genuine bestseller that inspired its adaptation to the small screen in the shape of a series, this three-day vacation from Tangier. The book and television adaptation both enjoyed tremendous popularity, particularly in Spain and Latin America. Since Sira Quiroga is the main character, many people choose this theme for their next vacation by remembering the episodes of the captivating story and by traveling to the enticing locations they envisage in the pages of the book or see in the scenes of the television show.
As a result, two cities in this circuit receive all the focus. The first is Tangier, which is full of historic sites and picturesque nooks and is a major entry point into Morocco from the north. The second, Tetouan, was recognized as a World Heritage Site for the elegance of its old city.
One of the highlights of the 3-day journey from Tangier, in addition to retracing Sira Quiroga’s steps and seeing the iconic sites in Tangier and Tetouan, is the opportunity to commemorate a historically significant era: the Spanish Protectorate of the Morocco. This political entity had Tetouan as its capital throughout the first part of the 20th century, so you may learn more about it while you’re there. Tangier, on the other hand, has locations that are connected to the Spain of a century ago as well as areas that exhibit the city’s cosmopolitan nature at that time when it was still governed and controlled by a commission of foreign nations and was therefore regarded as an international zone.
The three-day trip to Morocco from Tangier departs from that city, with Ceuta serving as the point of return. A day is spent at Tetouan as well on the way. This is how the path develops every day.
You will arrive in Tangier on the first day of this Morocco vacation from Tangier. In addition to using a ferry from Tarifa or Algeciras, two ports in southern Spain that are frequently used to cross the Strait of Gibraltar, you can also accomplish it by air, as Sira Quiroga did. This was the situation when Tangier was regarded as a free port, which is when the story takes place. Due to this, businesses began to arrive, and a cosmopolitan atmosphere developed, which the novel’s protagonist, a dressmaker, was aware of and which we will also note as we travel the route.
Our multilingual-speaking driver will meet you at the airport or ferry terminal in a private vehicle to begin the tour. We will visit several interesting locations on this day trip to Tangier, many of which are mentioned in the book and, more importantly, in the television series. For instance, we will visit the palaces of Dar El Makhzen and Dar Chorfa in the city’s Kasbah. These ancient structures, which date back to the reign of Sultan Moulay Ismail, served as the backdrop for Tetouan’s police station in the television series.
The American Legation, now an important museum, will also be part of the tour: here Sira Quiroga and Alan Hillgarth meet to discuss an important ‘business’. We will also walk along Sidi Kacen beach, where exterior scenes were filmed, and the Avenue of Spain, today called Boulevard de Mohamed VI, where the city’s port and the Continental Hotel are located. This accommodation is one of the most famous in the city and in its spectacular rooms were filmed some of the scenes of the series.
You won’t simply stay at The Continental during your vacation from Tangier. Another is the Hotel El Minzah, which is close to the Plaza de Francia. Sira Quiroga used to attend this establishment frequently, especially its cafeteria. In fact, it is one of the writers Mara Dueas’s favorite locations, as she has stated in numerous interviews, and we will learn more about it in-depth because it will serve as your lodging during your tour.
Along with the Continental and “our” El Minzah, we will also go to the Hotel Villa Josefine and the Palace of Muley Hafid (Palace of Italian Institutions), where Rosalinda Fox’s home and that of Sira Quiroga’s friend were both located.
On this first day of the journey from Tangier, we will see additional tourist destinations that are full of charm even if the primary locations of the book and the series are the main characters. Listed below are some potential program options:
A trip to Cape Espartel, on the outskirts of the city, where the well-known Caves of Hercules are located, deserves special notice. In order to enjoy this natural setting at its best, it will happen in the late afternoon. Dinner and sleeping at the aforementioned Hotel El Minzah on the way back.
The second day of our vacation from Tangier takes us to Tetouan. We will leave on our way to this city after breakfast at the Hotel El Minzah. And we will enter Tetouan by the road that once crossed the international border of the Borg… and that Sira Quiroga crossed in a somewhat accidental way, being forced to be admitted to the hospital for a hemorrhage.
Very significant historical events take place in Tetuan, and many of the locations are still well-known today. Consider the Sania Ramel Civil Hospital, where the main character is treated for her injuries. On the other side, one of the terminals for the Ceuta-Tetuan railway line, which is no longer in use, was located here. For this reason, as we will see on this day, sequences were filmed at the former station, which is now a modern art center.
Fans of the series will immediately know many of the streets and neighborhoods. This applies to Luneta Street, Luneta Gate, and the area around them. The Candelaria pension, Sira Quiroga’s first stay in the book, was located here. The station and Cagigas Park, which are both connected to arms smuggling in the series, are also nearby.
Sira Quiroga, a dressmaker by trade, visits the art school close to the queen’s door in quest of draftsmen to realize patterns. The main character establishes her tailor shop at the existing Cervantes Institute. And some of the series’ most provocative scenes were captured on camera from its balcony and rooftop.
The Ensanche neighborhood also has space in the series and shows the Spanish influence in the urban planning of the city. Other avenues, squares, and streets that travelers will recognize during this vacation are the Avenue of the Republic (now called Mohamed V), the Plaza de José Antonio (now Al-Yala), the Phoenix building, Tarrafin Street with its characteristic wooden lattices, the square of Spain in the door of the wind (Bab Ruah).
In addition, we will take advantage of the day to visit other places of interest in Tetouan, because in fact its historic center is declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco thanks to its beauty and uniqueness. Therefore, the visit can take you through:
The hotel for this second day will be the riad El Reducto. Although no sequences from the television series were filmed here, Adriana Ugarte, who plays Sira Quiroga, stayed here while filming her scenes in this city, therefore the riad is somehow connected to the television series. This motel will also serve dinner.
After breakfast at the riad El Reducto, we will head for the ferry that will take you back across the Strait of Gibraltar, back to the Iberian Peninsula. This time we will do it from the Autonomous City of Ceuta. It is just 40 kilometers by road, which also have its place in history, although in this case by rail. Therefore, during the tour, we will see the stations of Dar Riffien, Negrón, Miramar, and Malalien, the latter of great importance for the fate of Sira Quiroga and her activity as a spy.
Our driver will drop you off at the port of Ceuta and there will conclude our services in the circuit of 3 days. But the farewell will have the vocation of ‘see you soon, with the desire to meet again in other tours in Morocco, some of them with a similar cinematographic theme.
