The tour will last approximately 80 minutes. The main aim of this experience is to take you away from all of the overcrowded areas and to let you admire and appreciate the real Rabat in a more intimate and fun environment, guided by a native Rabatian! Be prepared to be WOWED by the mysterious and historical atmosphere that surrounds the canals and gives the city a unique touch that not many people get to experience. During the tour, I am going to guide you through the non-touristic areas where just mostly locals go and I will tell you some Rabat and Sale history and stories that are part of the local culture. However, during the tour, we will also pass in front of all the historical and modern sites like: St. Kasbah of the Udayas, bridge of Hassan II, Hassan Tower, Mohammed VI Tower, and Grand Theater of Rabat.
The ride was pleasant and a nice break from the business of the city. The boat ride itself was barely an hour. Time is spent waiting for authority to proceed. Also, something happened with our booking- we got started almost an hour and a half later than scheduled.
Very enjoyable and relaxing trip on the river. Our Captain shared a good overview of Rabat /Salah and was helpful with recommendations for other things to do in the area.
What a great way to start our time in Rabat. The nicest guys you will ever meet. A calm, peaceful cruise on the river, good coffee and a beautiful fruit platter. Thanks Omar for a wonderful morning.
We were supposed to be picked up at 9 am from our hotel and received a confirmation email this morning. No one ever arrived. There was no way to contact the tour operator other than through the online chat. They did not respond. I called Viator twice in NY. Both times the call got dropped off, and no one bothered to call me back. I’m very disappointed in Viator.
Never picked us up. Waited from 8:45 until 10:30. Called twice, no answer, no Voicemail. Expect a refund
As we were the only people on the boat, we expected to get more history of the river and its surroundings. We did not go down any canals nor did we get any history of the area. We did however, pass by all the mentioned sites that were listed in the description which was fine.
It was nice to see Rabat, and it’s Kaspah from the water, as well as the new modern theatre building. The guide Soahib was nice and helpful. I tried to row the boat - your do it standing, not sitting - it was hard but a lot of fun!
This boat trip was a beautiful experience! The organise, Sohaib was considerate and accommodating of our needs on the day. The boat trip allowed us to experience the tranquil blue water, and a peaceful Rabat all while under safe hands! Would definitely recommend!
It was a great experience. Sohaib makes sure that you enjoy the tour and makes himself available for questions. I recommend it. Thank you again.
The boat ride was very enjoyable. The views of the old fort area and the newer theater and tower were spectacular. We especially enjoyed the walk through the old market area.
This tour is a must when visiting Rabat! Sohaib and his brother gave us the best tour experience so far in our lives. They were extremely friendly, spoke perfect English, were courteous and made sure that my girlfriend and I had an unforgettable time. Upon request, we were even able to take a tour in a luxurious motorboat. We would recommend this tour to anyone. Thank you very much Sohaib, for a future visit to Rabat we will definitely book this tour again !
Wonderful way to begin our first day in Morocco! Relaxing trip up and down the river, wonderful views, and Sohaib was very informative about his city. He even helped us find our way around after the boat trip. Highly recommended.
It was really relaxing to be on the water in a non-motorized boat. We were able to see parts of Rabat that can’t be seen otherwise and Sohaid was able to answer all our many questions.
We had a wonderful boat tour of the river. The building are amazing we loved to hear from Sohaib the history of the area. The boat provided a great way to see the area and felt very safe. After the boat ride, we took a walk through the Malach (old Jewish area) in Rabat. it was a highlight of tis wonderful tour. We would highly recommend this tour! Thanks Sohaib!
So glad that we took this tour. It's a beautiful and very relaxing way to see some of the sights in Rabat. The guide was very informative and shared lots of tips on how to navigate Rabat. Thank you Traditional Boat Tour for a great and well-spent afternoon.
It was amazing the View From the boat wowed and also sohaib is a good Guide he was so lovely and helpful we got a lot of information from him about places to visit here in Rabat and Sale also
It was a great tour along the river with an amazing view and a friendly tourguide. We got to taste some of Morocco's traditional tea while enjoying the views. The tourguide showed us some of the city's most beautiful places and he did an excellent job doing so. Would definitely recommend this tour while you are staying in Rabat!
We met Sohaib at the waterfront in Rabat and took this amazing boat tour along the river! There’s so many great sights to see along the river! Sohaib is very chatty and friendly and he’ll give you lots of information for your trip in Rabat! We also saw he does evening tours with food which look great too! Would highly recommend taking this tour if you visit Rabat! We’ll be returning to Rabat and look forward to being back on the boat again soon! :)
Very large margin taken by TripAdvisor. Otherwise the guides were very nice. We had a good, pleasant time with music.
Guide très attentionné. Donne des petits détails d'histoires et est très à l'écoute des questions. En anglais et en français même s'il est plus à l'aise en anglais.
Without tourist interest: you see exactly the same thing on foot from the banks. Expensive, unnecessary. We do not recommend
Super balade en bateau sur le Bouregreg, jeune homme très sympathique et qui a pleins d’histoires à raconter. Il nous a permis d’essayer de ramer c’était rigolo.
