What you can expect

Dive into the daily life of locals on this unique introductory tour of Casablanca! Experience the hustle and bustle of the medina as you browse everything it has to offer. Enjoy spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean and sample some local pastries from a secret spot in an off-the-beaten track neighbourhood.

Your Casablanca walking tour will start with a view of the largest mosque in Morocco (and the third largest mosque in the world!), Hassan the II.

From here, wander over to the famous Rick’s Café, which you may have heard of from a little film called Casablanca. You won’t go inside, but you’ll want to note where it is for a return visit later on in your own time. Nearby, you’ll spot the Sqala tower, with canons dating back to the Portuguese era and a view of the Atlantic Ocean.

Walk through alleyways to reach the medina, where you can browse alongside locals going about their dailu shopping.

From here, you’ll make your way to the Habous quarter, also known as the new medina, where you can shop for Moroccan goods such as traditional clothing, leather, jewellery and food. The medina was built in the 1916s by the French, so it is no surprise that it features a wonderful mix of French and Moroccan-inspired architecture.

We’ll visit one of the oldest & most famous local bakeries in town called Bennis Pastry House, since 1938 locals have been taking their breads and pastries to be baked. (#localsknow tip: all the treats at Bennis are delicious, but we recommend the chicken pastilla, which is heavenly good!)

Treat yourself to a selection of traditional Moroccan pastries. Such as gazelle horns, which are pastries filled with a paste of almond and orange water or Fekkas which is a famous twice-baked Moroccan cookie & more. We’ll then head to a nearby local coffee shop to order a coffee or Moroccan tea and scoff your bounty

Then take a transfer back to Square of Mohammed V, Casablanca where your tour will end. Before you go, don’t forget to ask your guide for more tips on what else there is to see, do and eat in Casablanca.
