Rabat Day Trip: your private journey

A private day trip from Fes

Rabat from Fes is a commitment to the highway. We run it for travelers who specifically want the capital — gardens, mausoleum, blue-and-white kasbah — and who accept a long day. Otherwise, see Rabat on a Casablanca-start tour.

Day 1Fes to Rabat day trip: Udayas, Hassan Tower & coast

An early start for a full day in the capital: Kasbah of the Udayas, the Andalusian gardens, Hassan Tower, the mausoleum, and if time allows the Chellah necropolis or a walk on the Atlantic beach at Sale’s opposite shore.

Approx. 210 km each way Return to Fes

An early start for a full day in the capital: Kasbah of the Udayas, the Andalusian gardens, Hassan Tower, the mausoleum, and if time allows the Chellah necropolis or a walk on the Atlantic beach at Sale’s opposite shore.

Rabat is cleaner, greener and more spacious than Fes; the contrast is the point. We return in the evening. This day is long on the highway, so it suits travelers who specifically want the capital rather than another mountain loop.
