Rabat, Asilah & Tangier 3-Day Atlantic Coast Tour


Tour Overview
This 3-day route follows Morocco’s Atlantic coastline north from the capital Rabat to the international port of Tangier, taking in one of the country’s most charming and least-visited coastal towns along the way. Asilah’s whitewashed medina, covered in murals from decades of its annual international arts festival, makes a striking midpoint stop between two very different capitals.
The tour suits travelers looking for a coastal alternative to the inland imperial cities route, and works particularly well for those continuing their journey by ferry from Tangier into Spain, or arriving that way and heading south into Morocco for the first time.
