This morning discover the wonders of Casablanca as you tour around the city’s highlights. As you explore, feel immersed in the unique atmosphere and gain an insight into the city’s diverse history and culture.

Your Casablanca walking tour begins at Hassan the II Mosque, the largest Mosque in Morocco and the third largest in the world. Admire the Mosque's imposing minaret, which stands at 210 meters tall, then head to the famous Rick's Cafe, a stylish reproduction of the bar from the iconic Casablanca movie.

Next, follow your guide through the picturesque alleyways of the city to reach the Medina, where you can browse the stores alongside locals going about their daily shopping. From here, visit the nearby palace of Mahkama du Pacha, a grand Moorish-style building featuring mosaics, marble columns, and carved cedar ceilings.

Make your way over to the Habous quarter, also known as the New Medina, and shop for authentic Moroccan goods and souvenirs such as clothing, leather, jewelry, and food. Make a stop at a local bakery next where locals take their homemade breads and pastries to be baked. Enjoy a tasting of some freshly baked bread, then visit one of the oldest pastry houses in Casablanca, tucked in a laneway off the Souq Habous. Sample some traditional Maghribi pastries before washing it down with a coffee or mint tea at a nearby cafe.

After this magnificent and full morning, you'll have lunch and head towards the city of all senses: Fez. But on the way, enjoy the amazing panoramic views. We'll arrive at the end of the day in Fez.

After breakfast in Marrakech, around 9:30am, we head to our Tagine Cookery Class With a Local.

Learn to cook authentic Moroccan tagines in Marrakech. Get ready for the ultimate tagine experience on this one of a kind tour in Marrakech. From market to plate, you'll learn how to whip up a tagine from scratch, using ingredients from the famous Marrakech souks. The best part of it all? You get to eat your tagine after you've made it!

Stroll among the locals as you select the meat, vegetables, herbs, and spices that form the basis of Moroccan cuisine. Learn how spices are used, and about their historic import to Morocco over thousands of years. Discover homegrown ingredients, such as saffron from Taliouine, mint and olives from Meknes, and oranges and lemons from Fez.

Then, during your hands-on cookery class, an expert chef will teach you how to make traditional dishes central to Moroccan meals. Among the most famous Moroccan dishes are couscous, pastila, tagine, tanjia, and harira. Although the last is a soup, it is considered a dish in itself, especially during Ramadan, and is often served with delicious local dates.

Once you have prepared your tagine meal, sit down to savor the delights of your cookery class in the delightful surroundings of a typical riad.

After all this, with the recipes that will be passed on to you, all you have to do is try it at home.

But the day is not over yet, around 2pm, you'll have your first Historical and Cultural contact. Discover the majesty and vibrancy of Marrakech’s medina, beginning with a jaunt across the Jemaa el-Fnaa square to the Koutobia Mosque. Gaze at the mosque’s massive minaret, the largest in Marrakech, as your expert guide informs you of the stunning building’s history.

Onwards, you'll head towards the Saadian Tombs, sealed for centuries until their rediscovery in 1917. Marvel at the ornate carvings in a Hispano-Moorish style that frame the crypts of the 16-century royal family.

Afterwards, head to the equally ornate Bahia Palace, a 19th-century royal dwelling intended to be the most splendid palace of its time. Gaze at the elaborately-painted ceilings, manicured gardens replete with fruit trees, and elaborate stucco patterns adorning almost every surface of the building.

To cap the tour off, you’ll wander through the buzzing souks, with their wide array of local artisans and craftspeople, your guide showing you insider tips about the best stalls.

The rest of the afternoon and dinner tonight is at your leisure to choose from the many stalls in the square.
