What to expect

Begin your day with an early morning pick up from your Tangier hotel or Riad accommodation, and drive through the highway towards Rabat. Upon reaching Rabat, you'll be greeted by a private local tour guide who is well-versed in the city's history and culture.

Take a leisurely stroll through the intricate white-washed streets of the Oudayas Kasbah, which has a rich history dating back to the 11th century when it was founded by the Almoravids. Be sure to visit the grand Mosque with its unique minaret, offering stunning views of the ever-flowing Bou Regreg River and the city of Sale, and explore the Andalusian Gardens and Moulay Ismail Museum.

Continue your tour with a visit to the vibrant and hassle-free Souks of the Medina, leading you to the Mohammed V Mausoleum. Adjacent to the Mausoleum is the Hassan Tower, which is the iconic landmark of Rabat and visible from different parts of the city.

As Rabat has been the administrative capital of Morocco since 1912 and home to the King and the Royal Family, you'll visit the Mechouar or Royal Palace and stroll through the entrance where you can see the guards and beautiful gardens.

To conclude your day trip, visit the Archaelogical Museum and the Chellah Necropolis before heading back to Tangier in the late afternoon via the highway.

Rest assured, your driver will drop you off at your hotel in the new town or escort you to your Riad within the walls of the Medina or the Kasbah.
