The Experience

If you land in Casablanca and have a day before moving on, or you're staying nearby and want to see Morocco's capital without arranging a car, this tour picks you up from your hotel and drives you north to Rabat. The driver is a guide who speaks English, Spanish, Italian or French, so the stops are not silent walks—you get the context for what you're standing in front of. The day runs seven to eight hours, which means you see the main sites without racing through them.

The itinerary hits five major stops. Hassan Tower is the minaret of a 12th-century mosque that was never finished; it stands alone in the center of the city and is one of the first things you recognize about Rabat. The Kasbah des Oudaias is a fortified compound built in the same century and now a UNESCO World Heritage Site—you walk through the gates and the narrow streets where the Alaouite dynasty built one of their first palaces. Chellah is a fortress that holds Roman remains and a medieval Muslim necropolis, also on UNESCO's list. The Royal Palace is the official residence of the Moroccan royal family and the seat of government, though the interior is not open to visitors; you see the exterior and the grounds. The Corniche is the waterfront promenade where locals walk in the evening. The route also passes the Mausoleum of Mohammed V.

Because it's a private tour, you can ask the guide to linger at a site or skip one if something else interests you more—the itinerary is customizable. The vehicle is air-conditioned, bottled water is provided, and there's WiFi on board if you need to stay connected. If you're traveling with infants or small children, you can bring a pram or stroller, and specialized infant seats are available.
