We depart Casablanca and drive toward Rabat, Morocco’s imperial capital and a UNESCO World Heritage City. The journey of about one hour and ten minutes passes agricultural plains, small towns, and river valleys. Your driver points out historic landmarks, local life, and natural features along the way, building anticipation for a day immersed in royal and cultural heritage. Along the route, you may spot ancient fortifications, traditional Berber villages, and panoramic views over the Atlantic coastline and the Bou Regreg River.
Begin at Hassan Tower, the unfinished minaret of a 12th-century mosque, and the Mausoleum of Mohammed V, resting place of Morocco’s revered king and his family. See intricate stone carvings, green-tiled roofs, and grand courtyards while your guide shares the story of Rabat as an imperial city and political center. These sites are part of the UNESCO designation, highlighting the city’s historical and cultural significance.
Explore the Chellah, an ancient necropolis blending Roman ruins with medieval Islamic structures, where storks nest atop the columns. Then visit the Kasbah of the Udayas, wandering its narrow blue-and-white streets and enjoying the Andalusian Gardens with panoramic views over the Bou Regreg River and the Atlantic. Key sights include the kasbah gates, traditional riads, coastal fortifications, and historic watchtowers. These landmarks highlight both Rabat’s medieval history and its strategic importance on the Atlantic coast.
Finish at the Mohammed VI Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art. Discover Moroccan and international artworks, including paintings, sculptures, and installations.
