Overview

Discover Rabat, Morocco’s capital and one of its four imperial cities, on a day trip from Casablanca As you arrive, you'll find yourself stepping back to the 12th century with a visit to the iconic Hassan Tower. This towering structure, part of an ambitious mosque project left unfinished by Sultan Yacoub al-Mansour, stands as a testament to the city’s medieval heritage and aspirations. Nearby, the Mausoleum of Mohammed V offers a glimpse into Morocco’s more recent history, its immaculate white silhouette honoring the legacy of the nation’s revered kings and their role in achieving independence.

Wander through the Kasbah of the Udayas, a fortress that once guarded the city against invasions and now serves as a peaceful neighborhood with Andalusian-style gardens. Wander through the Medina, where ancient Berber roots meet French colonial touches in a vibrant marketplace. Discover local craftsmanship in traditional souks and see how the city balances its ancient walls with modern life.
