Once in Casablanca, your main stop will be the Hassan II Mosque, an architectural marvel and one of the largest mosques in the world. Built partly over the Atlantic Ocean, the mosque’s intricate details, such as mosaics, marble floors, and ornate wood carvings, reflect the artistry of Moroccan craftsmanship. You’ll take a guided tour to admire its massive prayer hall, beautiful chandeliers, and the open-air retractable roof.

After visiting the mosque, you’ll have time to explore the nearby Corniche, Casablanca’s coastal promenade, where you can relax with ocean views and enjoy a leisurely lunch at a local café or restaurant. By mid-afternoon, you’ll begin your journey back to Marrakech, arriving in the early evening. This quick yet impactful tour offers a blend of spirituality, history, and the coastal ambiance of Casablanca.
