Overview

Hassan Tower, Mausoleum of Mohammed V, the blue-and-white Kasbah of the Udayas and the Chellah

Just an hour from Casablanca, Rabat is Morocco's elegant capital and a UNESCO World Heritage city, combining royal monuments, a seaside kasbah and gardens with a calm, relaxed atmosphere. This guided day trip from Casablanca reveals its highlights in comfort. The tour begins on the esplanade of the Hassan Tower, the unfinished 12th-century minaret of what was meant to be one of the largest mosques in the world, surrounded by a forest of ancient columns. Facing it stands the Mausoleum of Mohammed V, a masterpiece of Moroccan craftsmanship guarded by royal guards in ceremonial uniform, where King Mohammed V and King Hassan II are buried. Next, explore the Kasbah of the Udayas, a fortified village of blue-and-white lanes perched above the mouth of the Bou Regreg river, with views over the Atlantic and the town of Salé. Relax in the peaceful Andalusian Gardens and stop for mint tea and pastries at the legendary Café Maure overlooking the river. Depending on time, the route can include the Chellah necropolis, with its Roman ruins and storks nesting on the old minaret, and a drive past the Royal Palace. After lunch (at your own expense) in the medina or by the marina, you return to Casablanca in the late afternoon.
