Introduction
Welcome to a 3-day packed itinerary of Rabat, Morocco. We've prepared an exploration of history, culture and appetising Moroccan cuisine in the elegantly serene and captivating Moroccan capital.
Day 1 - Diving into history
Rabat's splendid Medina, a labyrinth of narrow alleys and bustling shops, is our first stop. Vibrant, lively, and full of fascinating finds, isn't it more like a treasure hunt? Then we'll head to the Kasbah of the Udayas, a beautiful blue-and-white painted area with stunning views of the ocean – just like stepping into a real-life painting! Our day wraps up with a serene evening stroll at the Andalusian Gardens, breathing in the sweet scent of orange trees. Talking about picturesque, does it get any better than this?
Day 2 - Cultural exploration
Day two plunges you into the heart of Moroccan history and culture. We'll kick off at the Mausoleum of Mohammed V, the final resting place of Morocco's beloved king. Isn't there something immensely peaceful about this place? From there, we move to Rabat's symbolic Hassan Tower. Don't you feel like you're drawn back in time, standing among these ancient ruins? Our day ends with the awe-inspiring Mohammed VI Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art. A feast for the eyes, right?
Day 3 - Unveil Rabat's secrets
We spend our last day treasuring the city's finest gems. First, be ready to be awed by the grandeur of the Royal Palace. Just imagine, what would life as a royal feel like? Following this regal experience, we visit Chellah, a tranquil site packed with Roman and Islamic ruins. Could there be a better way to say goodbye to Rabat than at this symbol of its intertwined cultural history?
