Rabat Budget Entertainment

There are many stunning sights in the city to keep you busy without spending money. The Oudaias Kasbah is a nice place to start getting acquainted with the city. Explore here and the Medina in the old town first and take in some great sights from some great vantage points in the city.

Head to the neighboring community of Sale where you can enter the Medersa, unlike many other religious buildings in the country. When you finish there, check out Sale's Medina as well, and be sure not to get lost wandering the maze of back alleys weaving through this residential neighborhood.

Traveling a little further out of the city to see some sights is also budget-friendly, as outside of necessary transport costs and food, you will spend very little. A couple more km north of Sale is the shrine of Sidi Moussa ed-Doukkali where visitors can walk out the back of the Medina into a ruined fort and then the coast. Though this area is not on the typical tourist track, it is a very interesting stop.

If you like greenery, head a bit farther north to the Jardins Exotique. Reachable by bus in just 30 minutes, these gardens are lush and relaxing. Bring a picnic and make an afternoon of it.
