Rabat day trip: your questions
How far is Rabat from Casablanca?
About an hour at the wheel on our planning road map, before stops. The train is an alternative; a private car lets you add the Hassan II Mosque and move between sites easily.
What should we see in Rabat in one day?
The Kasbah of the Oudayas and its gardens, the Hassan Tower and the Mohammed V mausoleum, the Chellah and the medina. That fills a comfortable day with lunch.
Can we do this on a layover?
Often, if you have enough hours between flights. Tell us your times and your planner checks whether it fits safely.
How much is a Rabat day trip?
It depends on the vehicle, the guide and your group. We do not publish fixed prices: every day trip is quoted for you, free, within 24 hours.
