CHEFCHAOUEN - Morocco's BEAUTIFUL Blue City - Travel Vlog

[@harrybarry5224]

I've never seen such views. I knew exactly what you meant when you said it looks unreal. Crazy to think towns like these still exist in these modern times. Let's hope tourists and modern architecture don't ruin this ancient-looking town. Beautiful!

[@ChrisKermis]

Exactly. I saw a sign of negative change with an area being converted into a big new car park just outside of the old city. Everything changes over time, and I actually recorded a segment on that subject but chose not to include it in the final cut.

[@zuzman]

True i just Come back from a road trip to Morocco and Chaouen seems unreal. It s pure poesy! You Can go and see if you like my own vision of Chaouen on my channel : Au Sud De Nulle Part (chefchaouen)

[@sam_sa09]

It'll never be ruined 😊

[@usefananit7384]

Don’t worry sir we have enough land to build new citys, we know what it worth, we will never ruin our history, thanks for your con cansurn

[@SoMonstersDoExist]

The Netherlands actually has a lot of old architecture and towns too, mixed with modern buildings. I live here in The Hague so I've gotten used to it, but I can understand why tourists will find it special.

[@SalmaAmjad-r7k]

Welcome to Morocco 🇲🇦

[@ConcordMed48]

The city of Chefchaouen as if you traveled through time, to the city of Aladdin🧞

[@ChrisKermis]

It’s beautiful!

[@artdirector9517]

Great 🙂👍 Morocco is safe just make your back bag on your chest in the crowded souks. Second thing barging, haggling is the national sport in Morocco so try to negotiate every price in the old souks without shame. Also you can see some beggars 70 % of them are pro they can earn more than a bank manager per month. but if you feel tired hot or you look for some chillout go to the city of the wind Essaouira city or Assillah city or Warzazet city. It's so easy to rent a car too like 40 dollars a day. for information the nord of Morocco is a little cold in janury. In general Morocco is good for travel, rich of culture and safe. Life is not easier like in europe but he do the best of he can, the most civilised city in Morocco for now is Tanger city. Good trip just enjoy every moment 🙂. About tips : sneaks charmer and dancers : 2 dollars. Henee tatoe : 5 to 7 dollars. camel ride in beach : like 6 dollars ....

[@elcrocohouse2768]

chefchaouen is a special city full of positive energy

[@ChrisKermis]

I loved it there!

[@chadywood]

Commenting ona few of these since I watched all your videos before going to Morocco last week, Chefchaouen might just be the most beautoful places ive ever been, it was just amazing.

[@ChrisKermis]

It’s really something special for sure! Wish I’d had an extra day there!

[@abdou4101]

I love the 🇵🇸 on your shirt. Nice video 👍

[@ChrisKermis]

Thank you!

[@graemewalters4518]

I was there a fortnight ago for 2.5 weeks and really could have stayed ! Went twice to Akchour in a Grand taxi ,about 45 minutes each way,and 25 dirham if there's 6 people . One walk up to the incredible natural rock arch in a gorge,called 'God's bridge' and the second time crossing to the path on the other side of the dam at Akchour to the many little waterfalls on the river. You can swim in the clear pools on both walks..but the water is freezing ,even with temperatures of 35+dg!😂. Also did a 3 hour walk one day,with 5 young backpackers ,uphill to a small hash farm high in the Rif(at 64 I don't partake though!😂)..The farmer fed us on bread,olive oil,amlou and glasses of tea,under a walnut tree. Met his family and dog too,at a VERY basic farm. Idyllic day,but i was shattered when i finally staggered into Chefchaouen ! Fabulous place though..🙂

[@mackavelly]

wow incredible video i want to go there so badly

Thank you! It’s well worth it, and there’s other amazing places around

Hi, Chris. Love your videos! May I ask in which hotel did you stay? The view is very nice.

[@ChrisKermis]

Thank you! The hotel I stayed in was Résidence Hoteliére Chez Aziz. Lovely place with some real character and in a handy location just outside of the old town. The only downside was getting woken up by the early morning call to prayer from the nearby mosque.

[@gabrielbuan3424]

@@ChrisKermis , thanks a lot! Been living here in Rabat for over a year now so we got used to the calls for prayers. One of these days we'll also try the restaurant, Fine Yemma, where you dined at when you were here. Cheers!

Awesome video man! Just wondering what is your camera and mic setup? It sounds good but I don't see a wireless lav so I assume it's a shotgun mic?

[@ChrisKermis]

Thank you! I loved my time in Morocco, it's a wonderful country with so much variety

[@Yanzdorloph]

I went to Essaouira last weekend, it was really great especially at night, but man the prices there are Las Vega's prices not Moroccan prices, especially in restaurants, haven't seen such a thing in Morocco except in Essaouira. Was chefcaoun anything like that ? Haven't been there in over a decade, I reckon things might have changed there too

[@ChrisKermis]

I didn't get to Essaouira myself so never saw that side. The only price that was a bit rough was the foreigner price to enter the kasbah. On the other hand I don't tend to visit places that are going to be expensive and more touristy, like the restaurants on the main square for example. So really I spent very little there, it just depends how you travel I guess.

[@DocuseriesMACA]

I think you might ve went to some fancy and expensive restaurants, were the prices high even in the port?

[@Yanzdorloph]

@@DocuseriesMACA Especially in Medina close to the port, bruh there were restaurants with menus with Euros not Dirham. Nb: Then again I'm not talking about kebab or Shawarma vendors

[@ChrisKermis]

@@DocuseriesMACA Everywhere I went was quite reasonable I thought, always places filled with locals rather than tourists

Chefchaouan has become a Disneyland. First coming to the city in 1970 I think it is now a sad state of affairs, the rampant tourism. So many of the narrow alleys are now crammed with hordes of goofy tourists taking selfies. It is a beautiful town and in an exquisite location, the magical Rif Mountains. Why politicize with the Palestinian flag button?

[@ChrisKermis]

This was filmed way before the current events. If you see my video titled something about walking in to the Moroccan Masterchef, the button was given to me that day by the competition winner. I don’t bring politics into my videos, they’re not about that. But yes, it’s certainly a place that has suffered from its Instagram popularity.
