Fes To Rabat And Chellah Necropolis

Take a full-day journey from Fes to Rabat, Morocco’s elegant capital on the Atlantic coast, where history, architecture, and modern life blend in a relaxed atmosphere. This trip is ideal for travelers who want to explore beyond Fes and discover one of the country’s most important imperial cities, known for its wide boulevards, ocean views, and remarkable heritage sites.

A key highlight of the day is the visit to the Chellah Necropolis, one of Rabat’s most atmospheric historical places. Hidden behind ancient walls, Chellah is a peaceful archaeological complex where layers of history come together—from Roman remains to medieval Islamic structures. As you walk through its quiet paths, you’ll see ruins, stone arches, and historic tombs surrounded by gardens and nature, making it a unique stop for both culture lovers and photography.

Depending on your timing, you can also enjoy Rabat’s main landmarks and viewpoints, such as the Kasbah of the Udayas overlooking the ocean, the Hassan Tower, and the Mausoleum of Mohammed V—some of the city’s most iconic symbols. After a rewarding day of sightseeing and discovery, you’ll return comfortably to Fes with drop-off at the end of the excursion.
