About this activity

Experience Rabat's royal heritage and medieval charm on a private 8-hour guided tour from Casablanca, visiting UNESCO-listed Kasbah of the Udayas, the iconic Hassan Tower with Mohamed V's Mausoleum, and the serene Chellah ruins—Morocco's cultural capital in one immersive day.

We will start our private tour with the pick-up at your hotel or riad, after which we will visit the most emblematic places of Rabat.

There are five gates that give access to the city through the wall. The most iconic gate is Er-Ruah, due to its stone facade and its large size. Later, we will access to the city through Bab Esufara, the Ambassadors Gate to Mechuar, that is the most important square of the royal celebrations and where we will see the Royal Palace.

Chellah will be one of the most remembered places after the tour. It´s an absolute oasis, full of peace and calm.

We will visit the Hassan Tower too, the most visited monument of the city, where the Mausoleum of Mohamed V was built, with a great yard and an amazing hypostyle room that includes 19 naves.

The kasbah of the Udayas, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO since 2012, is also a place that should not be missed along our excursion, located upon a cliff with amazing views of the Atlantic Ocean and with its streets full of flowers, its coloured houses and the Andalusian garden. Here we will find the most important Mosque of Rabat, the Adayas Museum, that has great jewellery collections that show the moroccan craft.

When we will cross the Andalusian wall, we will be in the heart of Rabat, in its ancient medina, where we will find a pleasant atmosphere. We will tour the most active places of the Medina, Suiga and Souk Es Sebat, the craftsmen neighbourhood and where the typical red carpet can be found (The auction for these carpets are celebrated on Tuesday morning in Rbati). Furthermore, we will visit many crafts and textile shops in Consuls Street.

Insider tips

  • ★Visit Kasbah of the Udayas in late afternoon when light is golden and crowds thin—the cliff-top views and garden are most magical then

  • ★Wear comfortable walking shoes with grip; Chellah and Kasbah involve uneven terrain and stairs, especially on cliff pathways
  • ★Bring water and sun protection; Rabat has limited shade in monuments, and summer temperatures can exceed 30°C
