Rabat was a bit disappointing after visiting Fes and Marrakesh.
Shopping, historic sites, and beaches are just a few things travelers like about Medina of Rabat. Sights like Grand Mosque and Exposition Poupées du Monde are spots to explore, and you can get around the greater Rabat area at Bab Chellah Tram Stop.
Agdal is well-liked for its golf courses and entertainment venues. If you're hoping to get in some sightseeing, National Library of the Kingdom of Morocco and Al Barid Stadium are top spots, and you can jump on the metro at Ibn Sina Tram Stop or Agdal-Avenue de France Tram Stop to get around.
The museums and gardens are just a few things visitors like about Quartier Hassan. Hassan Tower and Mausoleum of Mohammed V are worthwhile spots to check out, and you can hop on the metro at Place du 16 Novembre Tram Stop or Tour Hassan Tram Stop to get around the larger area.
Though Hay Riad might not have many top sights, you can venture to the surrounding area to see attractions like Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium and Rabat Zoo.
Unique features of Souissi include the gardens and restaurants. Make a stop by Foret Hilton or Mega Mall Rabat while you're exploring the area.
The restaurants and seaside views make Océan worth a stop. Make a stop by Bab El Had Square, and jump on the metro at Bab El Had Tram Stop to get around the area.

If Rabat is your starting point in Morocco you'll enjoy it. For us it was our last stop. I would say don't go out of your way to visit but if things just work out that way (for us it was a flight to Spain) it's not a bad place to spend a day.
Great first stop in Morocco with plenty to do!
Much nicer than Casablanca. A much cleaner andess smelly city. Was a nice visit overall.
Fantastic time in Rabat, people are friendly, walkable city, felt safe,,people out and about well into the late evening, if you like a vibrant city spend a couple days here.
It’s a city
