The authentic Moroccan experience can come in a lot of ways. But there is probably nothing more authentic than touring the four kingdoms of the country—Rabat, Fez, Meknes, and Marrakesh.
As the leading travel agency in Herndon, Virginia for all trips to Morocco, we offer immersive and life-changing tour packages to reflect the colorful energy of the country.
One of our travel and tour in Virginia packages, our Morocco Imperial Cities Tour, is not only meant to let you discover the wonder of these cities but also to offer you a genuine experience like any other in the most convenient way possible.
Here is what you can expect on your trip to Morocco:
- Rabat
Rabat is Morocco’s capital as well as the seat of the government and the royal family’s official residence. Here are some sights to explore:
- A smaller version of the blue city of Chefchaouen inside the Kasbah les Oudaias
- Mosque el-Atiqa, the oldest mosque in the city
- Hassan Tower
- Kasbah of the Oudaias
- The mausoleum of Mohammed V

Fez is where many of the country’s intellectuals reside and is the largest car-free urban area in the world. Here are some sights to explore:

- Fès el-Bali, the medina at Fez
- The Jewish quarter of Rue des Mérinides

Meknes is a little gem located in between Rabat and Fez. It was once home to the Moroccan sultanate and is perfect for a more laidback tour. Here are some sights to explore:

- Agdal Basin, a historic site for the Sultan’s gardens and used as a pleasure lake
- Bab el-Mansour, the huge gate guarding the city

Marrakech is a combination of the ancient and the modern—perhaps what best describes Morocco today. Here are some sights to explore:
