5 Day Northern Morocco Tour

5 Day Northern Morocco Tour

Rabat has a long and colourful history, having been host to Roman settlements, pirates and more recently the Moroccan parliament. It contains numerous fine Arab monuments, some dating back to the 10th to 15th century Almohad and Merenid dynasties, and some that are far older. The earliest known settlement is Sala, occupying an area now known as the Chellah. Spend a few hours strolling through the city's old quarter, then walk up to Kasbah des Oudaias and enjoy views of the Atlantic Ocean. Continue on to Meknes through a scenic countryside to the sacred pilgrimage village of Moulay Idriss. Once forbidden to non-Muslims, explore the delightful medina of this ancient town that offers an excellent insight into traditional Moroccan life. See where the faithful gather to pay homage at the tomb of Moulay Idriss I, who was the great-grandson of Mohammed and brought Islam to Morocco. At sunset, enjoy great views over the plains of Volubilis below.
