Privata dagsutflykter från Casablanca till platser du aldrig kommer att glömma

You'll be spending the Moroccan Dirham (MAD) while in Morocco. While some hotels and tourist establishments may accept Euros or US dollars, you'll get better exchange rates using dirhams. ATMs are widely available throughout major city centers.

Casablanca is famous as Morocco's economic capital, home to Africa's largest mosque (Hassan II Mosque), the legendary Rick's Cafe from the classic movie "Casablanca," French colonial architecture, and serving as the country's main business and industrial hub.

Top day trip destinations from Casablanca include Rabat, Morocco's capital with its UNESCO-listed medina, Fez, and coastal towns like El Jadida with its Portuguese colonial architecture and Sale's historic medina.

Mohammed V International Airport (CMN) is Morocco's busiest airport, located about 19 miles (30 km) southeast of Casablanca. The airport serves as a major hub for Africa and offers extensive international connections.

Arabic and Berber are Morocco's official languages, with French widely spoken due to colonial history. In tourist areas, hotels, and restaurants, English is increasingly common, especially among younger people and those working in the tourism industry.

Casablanca is generally safe for travelers with standard urban precautions. As Morocco's business capital, it's well-policed and modern. Be aware of pickpockets in crowded areas, use official taxis, and respect local customs and dress codes, especially when visiting religious sites.

The best time to visit Casablanca is from April to June and September to November when temperatures are pleasant for sightseeing. Summer can be very hot, while winter offers mild weather perfect for exploring the city's architecture and nearby coastal towns.

Pack modest, comfortable clothing that covers shoulders and knees for cultural sites, comfortable walking shoes for medina exploration, sunscreen and a hat for sun protection, layers for temperature changes, and a light scarf for visiting mosques or windy coastal areas.
