Not much to see in Casablanca, but tour and guide Heba were good. Only Flaw is that the itinerary in Viator does not match what we did. We spent some time on the beach and Viator did not say it. Therefore, we did no take our bathing suits and could not enjoy it at most.
I had a great day in Casablanca. The journey from Marrakech went smoothly and our driver and tour guide Sadok was very helpful. I managed to get around and see quite a lot, but the highlight was having lunch in Rick's Cafe, a copy fom the famous film CASABLANCA, with Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman. Unfortunately, a few miles from the return to my hotel, our transport had some battery issues, but Sadok soon managed to arrange alternative transport to take the remaining few of us to our locations.
Picked up at meeting point. Driven to Casa Blanca in about 2+ hours after a rest stop 1/2 there. Tour was flexible. There were several options and we were able to see many things, have lunch and return timely to Marakesh
Very good nice driver Casablanca is a nice place took us to nice sites
We had a very nice daytrip to Casablanca with our driver Hicham. He was very kind and helpful. The car was comfortable. I highly recommend this daytrip.
We booked at the last minute and were pleasantly surprised to have a wonderful group, a father and his two adult daughters, on our tour. Since we were a small group the driver was very attentive to our schedule, spending the amount of time we wanted at stops, longer or shorter, versus a set program. It was a long day, and drive, but the van was very comfortable. I would highly recommend this tour and agency.

We had the pleasure of taking a tour from Marrakesh to Casablanca with our tour guide, Khalid, and it was truly outstanding. He is incredibly knowledgeable, sharing the history and culture of Morocco in a way that was both engaging and easy to understand. He was very polite, patient, and attentive, always making sure we felt comfortable and safe throughout the journey. He answered every question with clarity and depth. His professionalism, kindness, and genuine care made the journey not just a tour, but a memorable experience. We highly recommend Khalid to anyone visiting Morocco.
