booked this tour through getyourguide but its actually this tour.
Booked it the day before because it was cheaper than buying just the ferry ticket
Email was received by Getyourguide & from the ferry company FRS. At the port go to FRS checkin & show them your email (ref number) and they will give you the ticket & arrivals paper and a grey tour sticker (there are several different colours depending on what tour you are doing... this one is supposed to be for just an hour and then free time).
They don’t give you the return ticket you only get that off the guide later.
Ferry is 1 hr, onboard you have to fill the arrivals form & queue up to get your passport stamped, we sat until the queue was gone & this was as the ferry docked.
Off the boat you queue at the bag scanner & queue to get on bus, this took nearly an hour. We didn’t get the bus, we had took off sticker & just walked out of the port into town, 10 mins. This meant we got photos in town without the 400 other passengers.. Later we saw the guide (who was lovely & spoke English )sitting in a cafe & got our return ferry ticket off her, apparently she had said on the bus where she would be and to collect the ticket off her later. If we hadn't seen her (the city is tiny so chances are you will) Our plan was to get to ferry early & get ticket off her there.. Tangiers is nothing special, not a lot to see, so honestly not really worth it, but its so close to Tarifa we thought "why not" we've been to Marrakesh and this city is not as vibrant as that, so we went for a hamman to fill time which was fabulous
