Tour Details
We'll kick off this private tour of Rabat after walking to pick you up from your hotel. Once we're ready, we'll explore the narrow streets of the Medina, which holds secrets dating as far back as the 12th century. We'll reveal its interesting history!
We'll first arrive at the Kasbah of the Udayas, a historical military fortress found at the mouth of the Bou Regreg River. While we enjoy beautiful views of its surroundings, we'll stop to discuss the Almohad Caliphate and the Alawi dynasty, who restored the Kasbah and built the palace inside.
After this, we'll continue our tour to the idyllic Andalusian Garden and the National Jewellery Museum. Here, we'll discover a site with strong Andalusian influences in every detail. We'll then cross the Medina until reaching one of Rabat's most famous markets: the Sebbat Souk. Here we'll experience the essence of the Moroccan capital amidst stalls of textiles, rugs, and jewellery. Fascinating!
What's in store for the last stop? The Mausoleum of Mohammed V—a true gem of traditional Arab-Muslim architecture situated in the Hassan Tower Square. Did you know that over 400 Moroccan artists worked on its decoration? While you admire its lavish facade, we'll discuss the legacy of significant figures important to this location.
Finally, we'll say goodbye at this final spot at the end of this 3-hour tour.
