Private Excursions from Casablanca

Casablanca Day Trips to Rabat, Marrakech and Fes

Casablanca is where most visitors land in Morocco, and it sits within easy reach of three very different cities. Spend a relaxed day in Rabat, the capital, an hour up the Atlantic coast, or take a full day to see the souks of Marrakech or the medieval medina of Fes and be back at your hotel the same evening.

Beyond the Hassan II Mosque

Make the most of a short stay in Casablanca

Many travellers only spend a night or two in Casablanca at the start or the end of their trip. After the Hassan II Mosque and the Corniche, a private day trip is the simplest way to see more of Morocco without packing your bags or changing hotels.

Your driver collects you from your hotel in the morning, you travel in an air-conditioned vehicle, and you can add a licensed local guide for the city visit. The pace is yours: stop for photos, take a longer lunch, or skip a monument and spend more time in the souks.

Short and easy Rabat is the best choice for a half-relaxed day, a late start or travellers with children
Iconic Morocco Marrakech gives you the palaces, gardens and the famous main square in one day
History lovers Fes is Morocco's spiritual and craft capital, with one of the largest car-free medinas in the world
