Tramway Rabat-Sale

Reviewed By Ibrahim G - East London, South Africa

Tram tickets cost just 6Dirham for an Adult and 3 Dirham for a child, the tram offers access between both towns and stops at the major attractions.
Note the tram line isnt tourism focused and as such it doesn't address what attractions are at each stop so research what stop before you go. Tickets are brought from the ticket office at each station or sometimes automated machines, once on train you must stamp it into the machines as the locals do to validate journey, also ticket guards are frequent and friendly.

Chellah

Reviewed By SeemsTVL - Dundee, United Kingdom

At the Chellah you will find history / architecture from the Phoenicians, Romans, and Medieval Muslims. To cap it all, there are wuite a few storks who have made their nests on the site of the abandoned mosque, so a great place for birdwatching too.
A must see location in Rabat

Mausoleum of Mohammad V

Reviewed By eatafood - Kingston Parish, Jamaica

A perpetual homage site which is richly adorned with the most elaborate decor and trappings. Mohammad V is regarded by Moroccans as the father of modern Morocco, hence this elaborate shrine that is also the most visited site in all Morocco. Hence it is always packed but with a quiet serenity .
A must see. Great pageantry . A guide is a necessity.

Kasbah des Oudaias

Reviewed By SeemsTVL - Dundee, United Kingdom

Intesting 12th century islamic architecture in teh centre of Rabat. There are good views of neighbouring town Sale, and many buildings are painted blue and white, giving it a kid of Greek/ Mediterannean feel. There are a few places to get coffee here two
A good distraction from the hustle and bustle of Rabat

Museum Mohamed VI of Modern and Contemporary Art

Reviewed By melmagnus - Silver Spring, Maryland

At just about $2 per person, it's the best deal on an art museum abroad I've found. They focus on Moroccan and African art and do a superb job. The displays are thoughtfully chosen, varied and fascinating. Worth every penny and minute of our time. They also have a nice looking cafe (didn't try it) and pleasant gift shop. The helpful staff speak a variety of languages including English.

Reviewed By Badreiddine M - Rabat, Morocco

A recent addition to Rabat's highlights. Infrastructure is new, and well adapted to the zoo animal guests. It's not too big and not too small. The size is perfect to spend time with kids without ending up completely exhausted. The restaurant offer and quality can be improved, but besides that, awesome.

Hassan Tower

The unfinished minaret surrounded by two hundred columns is Rabat's most famous monument.

Reviewed By EllenChr - Oslo, Norway

If you go to the mausoleum, this is right on the other side of the square. It’s high Even though it is only half finished. If they had completed the work this would have been immensive. You can’t climb it, but it’s up on a hill so the view from the base of the Tower towards the kashba is very good. There’s a sunken Fountain right in front of it, so be sure to go all the way over the square if you want to see that too.

Medina of Rabat

Reviewed By Patti Beth A - Grove, Oklahoma

I love places like this- all the vendors and tiny shops. It is a maze to find it all. We loved looking at shoes, sniffing spices, taking photos. BUT they are working on the road/alley/path and there is equipment and shovels and lots of mud. Would not be a good time for a stroller or those unable to jump holes and piles.

Andalusian Gardens

Reviewed By AmBand - Cape Town Central, South Africa

Incorporate this when you do the Kasbah oudaia . If u get dropped off at the bottom gate you do a quick walkthrough of the garden and then you walk up to the viewpoint.the garden itself is small but lush...

Rabat Old Town

Morocco's capital city was founded in the 12th century. Its modern downtown area has many historic sights, shops and nightlife attractions.

Reviewed By Robert937 - Rotterdam, The Netherlands

The Kasbah of the Udayas is at the mouth of the river: southwest, where the river meets the Atlantic. It is now an ordinary neighborhood with narrow streets very much exposed to the wind. The museum of the Udayas is right behind the Andalusian Gardens where the old quarter starts. I almost overlooked the place, but it is worth a visit.
