Highlights Of Northern Morocco
This tour of Morocco invites you to ‘play it again’ with scenes reminiscent of the famous Bogart film in legendary Casablanca, where soaring sights and cafes ignite the imagination. Follow North Africa’s infamous Barbary Coast to Morocco’s capital city of Rabat—once the haven for 16th-century pirates. Discover its massive medieval battlements and the Royal Palace in one of the four Imperial Cities of Morocco. Travel along the Atlantic coastline of North Africa to visit the Caves of Hercules on your way to the dramatic promontory of Cap Spartel on the Strait of Gibraltar which divides the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea. Journey from the gateway to Africa, Tangier, to explore Tétouan, the “white dove” of the crystal blue Mediterranean and the “Blue City” of Chefchaouen. Marvel at the magic of Fez, considered the heart of Morocco, where legends of philosophers and astronomers still intrigue with a colorful culture bringing Aladdin to mind along its car-free urban alleyways and markets. A magical ride, indeed!
Day 1 |
Islamic and French influences blend together in charming Casablanca, Morocco’s iconic coastal city. Frequently used as a port for Spanish and Mediterranean cruises, Casablanca lies halfway between Marrakesh and Fes and is the perfect entryway for exploring the rest of Morocco. Casablanca’s most notable sites include the Hassan II Mosque, which towers over the glittering coastline and is one of Africa’s largest mosques, as well as the Ancienne Medina neighborhood, an old French-style quarter with plenty of delightful local markets and cafés. Stroll along the Corniche promenade, which follows Casablanca’s long stretch of beach, for spectacular views of the ocean at sunset, or visit the Mohammed V Square, lined with enormous palm trees, for easy access to the city center and a number of restaurants. Start your next African adventure in eclectic Casablanca! |

Day 3 |
Rabat, the capital of the kingdom of Morocco, is located on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean on the left bank of the Bou Regreg Estuary. A city of trees and flowers, Rabat combines peace, beauty and Serenity, and is steeped in history. It is the residence of the King and the seat of government and embassies. Hassan II Avenue follows the Undulations' Wall, built in the seventeenth century, and separating the modern city from the medina. Souika Street is the main artery in the medina. The many foundouks (traditional cafes) and shops always give this axis a very lively atmosphere. The babuche and Moroccans leather ware sellers occupy "Sebbat Souk" (the footwear market), which is easily distinguished by the mat roofing. Going along Consules Street, where foreign diplomats lived until 1912, you will find curiosities, souvenirs and traditional Moroccan items: worked copper, worked leather, silk embroidery, Sale mats and the famous Rabat carpets. |

Located on the north coast of Morocco near the Strait of Gibraltar, Tangier is a cultural capital replete with historic sites, colorful architecture, and splendid beaches. An essential stop is the Ancien Medina, a walled collection of winding streets and alleys filled with cafes and shops leading to the Kasbah, a former palace and mosque that also houses a museum. Other highlights to be found in this popular port city include the Hercules Caves, the American Legation museum, the Grand Socco market, and the Grand Mosque of Tangier. |

A series of gates surrounds the two centers of ancient, medieval Fez (sometimes spelled Fes). The principal axes link the center to the gates and a street surrounds the heart of the old city. The Kairouan quarter, which is longer, is crossed by an artery. Narrow, tortuous pedestrian streets, covered passages, stairs and numerous dead-ends make up the dense layout with few urban squares. One can still see the religious and military monument reflecting the heyday of the Moorish city, and the intellectual enlightenment of the Islamic city. The twin cities have not lost their individual characters. |
