Our Review of Rabat

  1. Flair

    Morocco's capital is laid-back, versatile, and refreshingly low-key — a welcome contrast to the intensity of Marrakech.

  2. Travel Season

    Spring and fall are the sweet spots. Summers get warm, but the Atlantic breeze keeps things surprisingly comfortable.

  3. Trip Length

    Two days is enough to hit all the highlights at a relaxed pace — three if you want to slow down and soak it in.

  4. Price Level

    Moderate — and noticeably cheaper than Marrakech across the board.

  5. Food

    Expect Moroccan classics, seriously fresh fish, and a great café scene you'll want to linger in.

  6. Getting Around

    The Medina is totally walkable. Beyond it, trams and taxis are cheap, easy, and reliable.
