Despite its lack of headline attractions, it offers a unique insight into modern Morocco. In many ways, Casablanca represents the hopes and dreams of the country and once you've had your fill of Morocco's more traditional charms it can be a fasinating place to discover. Casablanca is home to racing traffic and simmering social problems as well as wide boulevards,... more

One person on our tour described the contrast as "obscene". more

The Hassan II is practically the only mosque you can visit as a non-Muslim, but you have to see it as part of a guided tour, which run at 9am, 10am, 11am and 2pm. They speak French, German, Spanish... more
