Overview
Discover the timeless elegance of Rabat, Morocco’s capital and a UNESCO World Heritage site, on this immersive 2-hour walking tour. We begin at the Mausoleum of Mohammed V, a masterpiece of modern Alawite dynasty architecture characterized by its exquisite zellij tilework and white marble. Adjacent to it, you will stand before the legendary Hassan Tower, the monumental unfinished minaret that remains the iconic silhouette of the city’s 12th-century history.
Our journey continues through the vibrant Old Medina, where the scent of spices and traditional crafts offers a window into authentic Moroccan life. We then ascend to the Kasbah of the Udayas, a 12th-century fortress featuring striking blue-and-white streets and lush Andalusian gardens. From its vantage points, you’ll enjoy sweeping views of the Bou Regreg River and the Atlantic Ocean.
The tour also touches upon the ancient Chellah, a fortified necropolis where Roman ruins meet medieval Islamic architecture. Finally, we view the grand gates of the Royal Palace (Dar al-Makhzen), the heart of Moroccan governance.
