Casablanca’s Soul: Private Tour of Hassan II Mosque & More

The largest mosque in Morocco — and the third-largest in the world. With its minaret towering up 210 metres, the Hassan II Mosque blends Islamic architecture with Moroccan elements, Moorish influences with urban design.

It is here that the city’s Jewish past has been best preserved, and is also where it continues to live today. There are some 5,000 Jews currently living in Casablanca, and the city is home to more than 30 synagogues, plus Jewish monuments, cemeteries and shrines

A gorgeous museum inside a home, where a private collection of Moroccan artwork awaits. This house is the former home of Abderrahman Slaoui, a Moroccan businessman who loved the arts. As we peruse the artworks, we’ll stop for a refreshing Moroccan mint tea to help perk us up for the short walk to our next stop.

Notre Dame de Lourdes Church, with its architecture that’s oh-so-different from what you expect to find in Morocco! The European-inspired church towers over its neighbouring buildings. Please note that the Notre Dame de Lourdes Church is closed on Sundays, we will still stop outside, but we will not go inside.

Travel by private taxi to the Museum of Moroccan Judaism, home to 2,000 years of Jewish history in Morocco, with exhibits including videos, art, and historic documents. On Saturdays and Sundays, when the museum is closed, you'll instead visit a local synagogue (opened specially for your group) and the Heritage Interpretation Museum, offering rich insights into Casablanca’s cultural legacy.

After exploring the museum, your guide will escort you back to Square of Mohammed V, Casablanca via private transfer. Before you go, don’t forget to ask your guide for tips on what else to see and do in Casablanca.
