5 Days Morocco Tour from Casablanca

Overview:

5 days Morocco tour from Casablanca will provide a perfect blend of historical and modern civilization. Visiting some of the cities like Fes, which is dating back centuries while strolling their streets feels like walking in the medieval world. That’s the kind of experience we are providing you on our 5-days northern Morocco tour. For this guided tour, we have compiled a great trip covering all the ancient cities of the north.  

Most people know Casablanca from the old movie with the same name. Well, if you’ve seen the movie, you’ll be surprised how Casablanca doesn’t look anything like the movie. Actually, Casablanca is an economic and commercial city; it’s the biggest city in Morocco with modern towers and facilities. However, if you feel nostalgic about the movie, you can actually find the famous Rick’s Cafe in Casablanca. The movie was filmed in California, but that didn’t stop from making an exact replica of the cafe in the real city. 

Leaving Casablanca behind, this tour will continue to northern Morocco, to the town called Chefchaouen.  The blue pearl of Morocco is one of the most unique cities in the world because of its blue-shaded streets and buildings that are creating the most interesting scenery. Lastly, the tour leads you to Fes, which is a fantastic cultural and historical hub. 5 days Morocco tour will also end in Casablanca.

Day 1: Casablanca

The 5 days Morocco tour starts early in the morning in the modern coastal city of Casablanca. We will pick you up from your riad or hotel and set off to visit the major attractions of the city. Among them is the modern and monumental Hassan II Mosque. With its minaret of 210 meters, the mosque is the tallest structure in Morocco and the tallest minaret in the world. With state-of-the-art architecture, fine touch of ancient Arabic art, and the backdrop of the Atlantic sea, the Hassan II Mosque offers a breathtaking view. Bring a camera with you, because this is one of the most popular spots in Casablanca. After touring the mosque, we will visit Hubous, also referred to as Casablanca’s “New medina.” This open-air market offers a vast range of merchandise, including such Moroccan staples like dried fruits and spices. Almost everything is sold on this market. You will also get to experience rich art deco architecture left behind by the French when they built Hubous in the 1930s. We will then take a leisurely stroll along the Beach of Promenade and by the time we finish, it is time for lunch. We will eat at a restaurant that serves local food. In the afternoon, we head out to Casablanca’s old town district, where a maze-like tumble of alleyways leaves much to explore. The bustling old medina is quite a spectacle. From there, we will visit the Cathedral du Sacre-Coeur, famous for its incredible fusion of European and Moroccan styles. We will also visit Morocco Mall shopping center and the Jewish museum before ending the day at La Corniche beach for a spectacular sunset. Our guide will take you back to your riad/hotel.

Day 2: The Charming Blue City Chefchaouen

After breakfast, we will pick you up at your riad or hotel in an air-conditioned car and set off for a scenic road trip towards Chefchaouen via the Imperial City of Rabat. We will be passing the cities of Mohammedia, Temara, and Oudaias Kasbah en route to Rabat. It is a spectacular 340 km drive, where you can admire flat plains, rolling hills, and breathtaking mountainous terrain. The drive is approximately 4 hours long and takes you through some of the most scenic landscapes in Morocco. We will make several stops along the way at some of the most interesting spots such as the cork forests and Pont du Loukkos, among others. Chefchaouen is one of Morocco’s cities to have retained its traditional features. Located in the Rif Mountains, the city was founded around 1471, and it provides a perfect experience of old Morocco. The city has preserved its look since the 15th century, providing a mind-blowing atmosphere of the historical world. Chefchaouen is best known for its blue-washed buildings, especially in its historic medina. We will spend the rest of the day exploring the city. We will visit Plaza Outa el-Hamman, where many traditional restaurants and cafés can be found, and have lunch there. Here there is local and international cuisine offered alike, with a taste of Arab fusion and Spanish influences.

We will spend the entire morning exploring over-2000-year-old Roman ruins at Volubilis, among other features.As one of the ancient Roman outposts, Volubilis offers fascinating things to learn about the Roman Empire. With its architecture and other classical features, it is definitely a striking site to visit on your way to Fes. A camera is a must to capture the remains of the temple on the backdrop of the hilly landscape. We will have lunch at Volubilis before we start another exciting road trip, heading to Meknes. The city of Meknesis an anticipation of what to expect in Fes. Among Meknes’ key attractions are Imperial City and the bustling medina of locals.

Day 4: Exploring the Medieval City of Fes

Fes is the oldest of the four imperial cities of Morocco. For more than 1000 years since the city was founded, Feshas remained untouched. Therefore, a leisurely stroll on the streets of Fes feels like passing through an ancient world. In fact, walking the streets feels what it was like to live in medieval Morocco. After breakfast, we will pick you up from your riad or hotel and set off exploring the beauty of the City of Fes for the whole day. There are the medieval Fes and the more modern Fes, the latter being greatly influenced by the French during colonization. For the medieval Fes, we will visit the two medina quarters where we will stroll centuries-old streets there.

As you approach this medina, you can see the breathtaking sight of the minaret of the famous Medersa BouInania. We will also visit the Medersa el-Attarine before lunchtime.

We will then go on to visit the old Mellah (Jewish Quarter) in Fes el Jedid as well as the site of the Royal Palace next to it.

An Outstanding Cultural Tour I just completed a multiday tour with Hassan from Best Morocco Travel as my guide. Safely driving his comfortable vehicle while playing wonderful Moroccan music on his sound system, Hassan took me to many memorable destinations. He knows his country. He’s a bright young man with plenty of energy. His English language skills are impressive. If you’re fortunate to have Hassan as your guide, he will take great care of you. Hassan is THE guide to have when visiting Morocco. I recommend him without hesitation.

Enjoyable trip The week in Morocco was very interesting and special. We not only enjoyed the local scenery, but also the considerate service. Hassan arranged the accommodation for us with local characteristics, and provided us with small gifts and local delicacies during the trip. All our requirements were well met by him and it was a very memorable and enjoyable trip.

Good memories 我参加了七天的摩洛哥之旅,想要提醒的是 要是想更深度游玩摩洛哥可以再久一点,可以八到十天,因为景点很分散,坐车的时常比较久。卡萨和马拉喀什值得好好玩,当然撒哈拉沙漠很壮观,很特别。导游Hassan是很贴心很友好的人,推荐给大家!而且可以根据大家的喜好进行调整行程,还有接机送机时的小礼物都让我感觉很幸福。It is hard to score the trip, because we and guide are not only like the business, We are like friends, like having fun with a Morocco local friend who will help you arrange all things well. And the accommodations he booked for us are nice. Also eating the traditional food of Morocco. Highly recommended!Thank you for taking me to see Morocco.
