We are at the administrative capital of Morocco where most of the embassies are situated. This makes from Rabat the second most important city of Morocco. The city is located on the Atlantic Ocean and at the mouth of the river Bou-Regreg. You will start the visit with your local guide at the wonderful Kasbah of Oudayas, the word Kasbah may refer to a city within a city or a fortified village (Fortress). Set in Morocco’s capital on the mouth of the Bou Regreg river, the Udayas Kasbah (or as it’s also known, Oudayas Kasbah) is one of the country’s most unique sites. Originally built in the 12th century and renovated many times since throughout the centuries, it has been home to Arab tribes, Andalusian immigrants, and some of Morocco’s most powerful sultans. Walk up the steps leading to the imposing gate of Bab Oudaya and discover the winding streets of the Kasbah that will take you to Rabat’s oldest mosque, beautiful gardens, and an exquisite museum.

Known as the ''Unfinished Past'' Take your walk with your local guide, this site is guarded at all times by elaborately dressed royal guards and fez-topped security personnel, Rabat’s two most visited sites stand opposite each other along the magnificent Bou Regreg river. Hassan Tower, and the Mausoleum of Mohammed V are two of Morocco’s most mystical places: one is an incomplete project of majestic proportions and the other stands as a masterpiece of modern Moroccan architecture, holding inside the grand tombs of past kings. Wander through the ruins of columns and enter the ornamental grandeur that is the exquisite mausoleum to discover a part of Moroccan history that will forever remain incomplete. At the beginning of the 12th century the Sultan Yacoub al Mansour ordered the construction of the Hassan Tower and its adjoining mosque in Rabat. Having already planned the creation of the iconic Koutoubia Mosque in Marrakech and planned the restoration of the ancient Udayas Kasbah.

The Phoenicians were the first to settle on this sloping site above the Bou Regreg river, and the Romans took control in about 40 CE, the name of this magnificent and historical site is Chellah. From 1154, it lay abandoned until the 14th century, when a Merinid sultan built a necropolis on top of the Roman site. An elegant minaret, now topped by a stork’s nest, is all that's left of a once-impressive mosque and behind it, the sultan's tomb, complete with stone carving and mosaic traces. It is also an evocative setting for the annual Jazz au ‘’Chellah festival’’ staged in September. Your local guide will always provide so much more information about the history of every site. After an optional lunch in Rabat we head for the blue pearl of Morocco and most beautiful city north of the country: Chefchaouen
