Casablanca is Morocco’s largest city and commercial capital — a dynamic, cosmopolitan metropolis that surprises most visitors with its beauty, history, and energy. Our private Casablanca highlights guided tour takes you beyond the airport transfer to discover a city that rewards exploration: spectacular Islamic architecture, Art Deco boulevards, a working old medina, and a stunning Atlantic corniche.
Casablanca Tour Highlights
- Hassan II Mosque — one of the largest mosques in the world, built out over the Atlantic with a 200-metre minaret. Casablanca’s must-see landmark.
- Mohammed V Square & Art Deco District — Casablanca’s elegant colonial heart, lined with 1930s Art Deco and Neo-Moorish buildings.
- Old Medina — the compact, authentic traditional quarter with its covered souks and local life.
- Habous Quarter (New Medina) — a 1930s planned quarter blending French urban planning with Moroccan design.
- Corniche d’Ain Diab — the stylish beachfront boulevard, perfect for a morning or evening stroll.
Visiting the Hassan II Mosque
The Hassan II Mosque is one of the few mosques in Morocco open to non-Muslim visitors, on a guided tour. Tours run in the morning, and modest dress is required — cover your arms and legs, and be ready to remove your shoes before entering the prayer hall. We include the mosque entrance and time your visit for the best light and smallest crowds.

Extend to Rabat
With a full day, you can combine Casablanca with the capital on our Casablanca to Rabat day tour — two cities, one seamless private trip.
Best Time for the Tour
Thanks to its Atlantic location, Casablanca is mild year-round. Spring and autumn are ideal, summer is warm with a sea breeze, and winter days are pleasant. Mornings are best for visiting the mosque.
