Rabat, Kenitra and Casablanca: connected imperial cities over 10 days

Start in Tangier beside port energy; Fes provides the middle contrast through layered imperial city; the closing chapter belongs to Casablanca, with station-to-station travel making space for unhurried station-to-medina days.

Het verhaal

From Tangier, the itinerary moves beyond Tangier's Europe to give Meknes its own chapter around imperial city of monumental gates, then reaches Casablanca through old medina edge.

Tangier shapes day 1 ahead of El Jadida through hillside streets; El Jadida holds day 5 ahead of Tangier around stone ramparts; Meknes holds day 6 ahead of Tangier around imperial city of monumental gates. Day 8 gives Settat, before Tangier, room for Chaouia plateau city; before Tangier, Casablanca takes its day 10 focus from old medina edge.

The change of register comes through imperial city of monumental gates in Meknes after Tangier's Europe in Tangier; across Tanger-Tétouan-Al Hoceïma, Rabat-Salé-Kénitra, Casablanca-Settat, Fès-Meknès, and Marrakech-Safi, the travel sequence uses train links, and the cadence leaves a measured no-car rhythm.

Keep service-day schedules between Tangier and Meknes and available seats current between Tangier and Kenitra; retest conditions between Meknes and Casablanca.
