Discover Casablanca, Morocco’s White City by the Atlantic
Leave Marrakech behind for a day and discover the modern, cosmopolitan side of Morocco with a private excursion to Casablanca, the country’s largest city and an important Atlantic coastal destination.
The journey takes you from the red ochre atmosphere of Marrakech toward Morocco’s Atlantic coast, where Casablanca combines historic Moroccan traditions with French colonial architecture, Art Deco influences, contemporary city life, and a strong connection to the ocean.
The centerpiece of the excursion is the spectacular Hassan II Mosque, dramatically positioned beside the Atlantic. Continue through the Habous Quarter, explore Casablanca’s historic Ville Nouvelle, discover Mohamed V Square, and enjoy time along the famous Corniche.
With private transportation and a flexible itinerary, the excursion can be adapted around your interests, whether you are most interested in architecture, Moroccan culture, photography, shopping, or the city’s coastal atmosphere.
