3 days
in Bab Ezzouar

A 3-day plan that gets the best out of Bab Ezzouar without burning out by day four. Skip a day if you need to — the trip is yours.

  1. Day 1

    Arrive and acclimatise

    Land in Bab Ezzouar, drop bags at your Booking.com property and don't try to do too much. Walk the closest neighbourhood, find a café, eat somewhere local and call it early. Day-one jet lag is undefeated.

  2. Day 2

    The classic Bab Ezzouar day

    Lean into what Bab Ezzouar is famous for — a slow morning on the sand, long lunch, swim before the heat drops.

  3. Day 3

    Go a bit deeper

    Pick a corner of Bab Ezzouar you haven't seen yet. Walk further than yesterday, eat where locals eat, skip the trophy spots.
