Highlights of Northern Morocco: Casablanca, Rabat & Fez

This morning your driver will collect you for the short one-hour drive to Rabat. En route, you will make a stop at the impressive Hassan II Mosque, the second-largest in the world after Mecca. On arrival in Rabat, the rest of the day is yours to spend at leisure.

Today you will enjoy a privately guided half-day city tour of Rabat. The capital is a calmer and less intricate city than Fez and Marrakesh, making it a good introduction to the Imperial cities of Morocco. During your tour, you visit the 12th-century Hassan Tower, built during the reign of the Almohads who founded Rabat, as well as other significant sites, including the Mausoleum of Mohammed V, and the Kasbah of the Oudayas.

Depart Rabat today with your private driver, for the city of Fez. En route, you stop to visit the impressive Roman ruins of Volubilis and the lesser-known Imperial city of Meknes. You join a local guide for a private tour of Volubilis, a wonderful Roman site and once the western border of their Empire. Continue for a tour of Meknes afterwards.

Today you have a half-day, private tasting trail through Fez, a great way to orientate yourself within the labyrinthine streets of the old medina. Throughout the tour, your English-speaking guide will help you to discover and taste various delicacies of Fez and interact with the locals at the different food stalls and markets.

This is a day at leisure to spend as you wish. You may want to get lost in the narrow, winding alleyways of Fez, or try your hand at bartering in the local souqs. Alternatively, arrange a spa treatment at your hotel, or relax by the courtyard pool.

Your private driver will pick you up this morning for the four- to five-hour journey to Casablanca. The rest of the day is yours to spend at leisure.

Today your driver will pick you up from your accommodation for the short transfer to Casablanca Airport, where you then board your onward flight.
