The Hassan II Mosque in the morning and the royal capital in the afternoon: the Hassan Tower, the mausoleum and the Kasbah of the Oudayas.
Two great cities of the Atlantic coast in one relaxed day. Casablanca shows the modern face of Morocco; Rabat, the capital, combines gardens, history and a white kasbah above the ocean.
Ideal for a stopover in Casablanca or for travellers who want to see the two great cities of the coast. The motorway makes the journey quick and comfortable.
Please note that the Hassan II Mosque does not open to visitors at prayer times and on Friday mornings; we plan the day accordingly.
