Things to Do in Casablanca
- THE TOUR COVERS A DISTANCE OF 7 KILOMETERS, SO MAKE SURE THAT YOU WEAR YOUR BEST WALKING SHOES.
Born and raised in the vibrant heart of Casablanca, I’ve always been captivated by the city’s unique duality, a place where timeless tradition seamlessly intertwines with modern sophistication. Once a modest fishing village, Casablanca has blossomed into one of Africa’s most dynamic and cosmopolitan cities, a testament to its resilience and evolution through the ages.
On this tour, I’ll take you on a journey through two of Casablanca’s most enchanting faces. First, we’ll step into the French colonial district, a living, breathing open-air museum of architectural wonders. Here, the streets are lined with stunning Art Deco and Neo-Moorish masterpieces, where every corner tells a story of a bygone era. From elegant facades and intricately designed churches to vintage cinemas, the French influence is etched into the very soul of this neighborhood.
Next, we’ll venture into the historic old medina, a labyrinth of narrow alleyways enclosed by its iconic reddish walls. This is where the heartbeat of Casablanca truly comes alive. As we meander through its winding paths, you’ll get a glimpse into the everyday lives of locals, bustling souks, the aroma of freshly baked bread from communal ovens, and the lively chatter of traditional coffee shops. It’s a sensory journey into the authentic rhythm of Moroccan life.
We’ll wrap up our adventure with a stroll along the breathtaking maritime promenade, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the city’s edge. Here, you’ll stand in awe of the Hassan II Mosque, a marvel of modern Islamic architecture and one of the most magnificent mosques in the world. Its grandeur, set against the backdrop of the endless ocean, is a fitting finale to our exploration of Casablanca’s rich tapestry of history, culture, and beauty. ( outside visit)
