Discovering the Royal Capital: Your Rabat Driving Guide with Huren Cars

Welcome to Rabat, the elegant and historic capital of Morocco. A city where ancient fortresses stand alongside modern boulevards, and the rhythm of Atlantic waves provides a constant, calming backdrop. Rabat offers a more refined and relaxed atmosphere than other major cities, inviting visitors to explore its rich history, beautiful gardens, and stunning coastline at a leisurely pace. At Huren Cars, we are proud to call Rabat our home. As a local company, we provide the key to unlocking the full splendor of the capital and its incredible surroundings. With the freedom of your own vehicle, you can move from royal palaces to ancient Roman ruins on your own schedule.

Why a Rental Car is Your Best Companion in Rabat

While Rabat’s main sites are accessible, a rental car transforms your visit into a true journey of discovery. Here’s why renting a car in Rabat is the smartest choice for travelers:

• Explore Beyond the City: The most remarkable historical site near Rabat, the ancient Roman city of Volubilis, is an absolute must-see and is only accessible by car. A rental vehicle turns a simple city break into an unforgettable historical adventure.
• Effortless Airport and City Travel: Arriving at Rabat-Salé Airport (RBA)? With Huren Cars, you can bypass the taxi queues and start your exploration of the capital immediately. Having a car also makes it easy to travel between Rabat and its sister city, Salé.
• Discover the Charming Coast: Take a scenic drive north to the beautiful, artsy town of Asilah, or south along the Atlantic coast to find secluded beaches. A car gives you the freedom to discover the region’s stunning coastline at your own leisure.

Your Perfect Rabat Itinerary by Car

Ready to hit the road? Here are a few must-see destinations that are easily accessible with your Huren Cars rental:

1. The Iconic Hassan Tower and Mausoleum

No visit to Rabat is complete without seeing its most famous landmarks. The unfinished Hassan Tower and the exquisite Mausoleum of Mohammed V are symbols of the city’s rich history and royal heritage. With your own car, you can easily visit these sites, find convenient parking, and explore the surrounding esplanade.

2. The Picturesque Kasbah of the Udayas

Step into a world of blue and white walls at the Kasbah of the Udayas. This ancient fortress at the mouth of the Bou Regreg river offers stunning ocean views, charming narrow streets, and a peaceful Andalusian garden. A car makes it easy to reach the Kasbah and then continue your exploration along the coast.

3. A Journey Back in Time at Volubilis

This is the ultimate day trip from Rabat. Drive approximately 1.5 hours inland to the UNESCO World Heritage site of Volubilis, the best-preserved Roman ruins in Morocco. Walk among ancient temples, triumphal arches, and incredibly detailed floor mosaics that tell the story of a city frozen in time. This is an experience not to be missed.

4. A Scenic Drive to the Artsy Town of Asilah

Head north along the Atlantic coast for about an hour to discover Asilah. This charming fortified town is famous for its whitewashed buildings, vibrant murals, and thriving art scene. It’s the perfect destination for a relaxing day trip, offering a quiet escape and a beautiful seaside lunch.
