Full Day Tour to Casablanca from Marrakech

At 7:00 AM, we’ll begin your day trip from Marrakech to Casablanca with a convenient hotel pickup in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle. Sit back and enjoy a scenic 2.5-hour drive through the Moroccan countryside as we make our way toward the vibrant coastal city of Casablanca, setting the stage for a day full of discovery and cultural highlights.

At 8:30 AM, we’ll make a brief breakfast stop in Ben Guerir for about 20 minutes. Take this time to grab a quick coffee or pastry at a local café (at your own expense) before continuing the journey to Casablanca. It’s a perfect pause to refresh and stretch your legs.

At 10:30 AM, begin discovering Casablanca’s architectural gems with two quick but memorable stops. First, admire the striking Sacred Heart Cathedral (20 minutes), an impressive neo-Gothic structure from the French colonial era—viewed from the outside to appreciate its scale and unique design. Then, head to Mohammed V Square (15 minutes) for a photo stop at the grand fountain, surrounded by iconic examples of French-colonial architecture.

At 11:30 AM, arrive at the majestic Hassan II Mosque for a 1 hour 45 minute visit—one of Morocco’s most iconic landmarks perched above the Atlantic Ocean. You’ll have two options:

Option 1: Enjoy a free self-guided walk around the mosque’s exterior, admiring its grandeur and oceanfront setting.

Option 2: Join the official interior tour (€14/person, paid locally) to explore the stunning prayer hall with its glass floor, intricate marble work, and the mosque’s soaring 210-meter minaret.

To include the interior ticket, please choose our Private Tour option, which offers skip-the-line access and a smother experience.

We also offer a separate option that includes the entry ticket with skip-the-line access, ideal for those seeking a smoother, faster experience.

At 1:15 PM, enjoy a relaxing one-hour break along Casablanca’s scenic Corniche, where the Atlantic meets the city. Take a leisurely stroll by the ocean, soak in the sea breeze, or stop at a local beachfront café for a drink or snack. It’s a great moment to unwind and take in the coastal atmosphere before continuing your Casablanca experience.

At 2:15 PM, it’s time for lunch in Casablanca with one hour free to dine at your own pace (meal at your own expense). Your driver will happily recommend some excellent local spots, whether you’re in the mood for fresh seafood by the coast or a traditional Moroccan restaurant serving classic tagines and couscous.

At 3:30 PM, enjoy 40 minutes exploring the charming Quartier Habous, often referred to as Casablanca’s “New Medina.” Wander through its arched alleyways, browse artisan shops, spice stalls, and traditional bookshops, and experience a peaceful blend of Moroccan heritage and French colonial influence in one of the city’s most atmospheric neighborhoods.

At 4:30 PM, we’ll begin the return drive to Marrakech, heading south through the Moroccan countryside. On the way, we’ll make a short 10-minute rest stop in Ben Guerir to stretch and refresh. We expect to arrive back in Marrakech by 7:00 PM, concluding your enriching day trip with lasting memories of Casablanca’s highlights.
