Hello, I am Candelaria, I was born a traveller, it is in my genes, my first plane ride was at 9 days old. I first came to Morocco in 1987 as a young backpacker. It definitively made a huge impression on me, but I never imagined I would end up living here. Chaouen is my home since 2004. I will be delighted to show you around town, and hopefully you will understand why Chefchaouen is so special, way beyond its famous blue walls. I have learnt that people enjoy seeing Chaouen through my eyes, a foreigner very well adapted to a culture so different to my own. I speak Spanish, English, French, Italian, Arabic and Portuguese and have lived in many countries. I love good food, nature and hospitality, which are the reasons why I do this. I own a small guest house (Riad Jibli) which keeps me busy, my life is quite simple in this sweet town.
Candelaria is an awesome woman! Probably one of the best tours I experienced. Warm, knowledge and helpful!
She was exceptional with very authentic experience. We learnt about different cultural and historical aspects of the place with great insights into everyday lifestyle. As well as names of great restaurants including vegetarian food
What a fantastic tour! Since I was the only one on the tour, Candelaria asked me what I had seen already and she tailored our tour to show me different aspects of Chefchaouen. She also shared many aspects of the history of the city, both old and new. Her tour allowed me to gain a different perspective on Chefchaouen.
What a great surprise! Candelaria and the other (2) Canadian guests were all from Argentina - one of my favorite Latin counties! We could switch languages back & forth - a big help for me. I am a senior and profoundly Hard of Hearing. We spent a great deal of time along the river, an amazingly photogenic area. I wanted to try a Hammam, my 3rd in 7 days. Candalaria left me in the capable hands of a local neighborhood Hammam and the ladies did a fine job making sure I'm clean and massaged from head to toes. If you're mature (2 of us were 75), Candelaria is your GoTo guide. Thank you for a wonderful visit.
Fantastic tour ! Candelaria was a fabulous guide. She took us to neighborhoods off the beaten path . Explained the history of Chefchaouen and how it has changed over time .
