Why Casablanca
Casablanca is where many Moroccan honeymoons begin, the main international gateway (CMN) and a city with a cinematic, art-deco glamour all its own. It is not the storybook Morocco of riads and souks, but it has the staggering Hassan II Mosque rising from the Atlantic, an elegant corniche of beach clubs and seafood, and the romance of its own legend. We give arriving couples a smooth, chauffeured half-day to see it properly — the mosque, the deco boulevards, a sundowner over the ocean — before a private transfer or flight on to Marrakech, Fes or the coast.
What to see
The world's third-largest mosque, rising over the Atlantic — one of the few in Morocco non-Muslims may enter, visited privately on a guided tour.
Place Mohammed V, the elegant 1930s facades and the restored Cinema Rialto — a walk through Casablanca's golden age with a guide.
The Atlantic boardwalk and beach clubs of Ain Diab, and a sunset table at the legendary Rick's Café to toast the start of the journey.

A private half-day around the Hassan II Mosque and the deco boulevards is the perfect way to ease into Morocco on arrival. For the romantic nights, though, we send you on to a riad or palace hotel in Marrakech, Fes or the coast.
Casablanca (CMN) has the widest long-haul network; Marrakech (RAK) is closer to most itineraries. We often arrange an open-jaw — in to Casablanca, out from Marrakech — with private transfers throughout.
