History
Rabat grew under Almohad rule in the 12th century; Hassan Tower is an unfinished minaret of that era, while the Mausoleum of Mohammed V marks modern royal history.
Conservation
Respect medina streets and archaeological sites by staying on permitted paths, minimizing noise, and carrying out any trash; coastal erosion and urban pressure make low-impact tourism important.

Morning start for cooler winds
Book a morning departure to avoid the coastal gusts that pick up later and to enjoy softer light for photos.
Expect mixed surfaces
Bring shoes with some tread—the route includes paved roads, promenades and short cobbled lanes through the kasbah.
Lock and secure valuables
When stopping in the medina or cafés, use a saddle or cable lock and keep wallets and phones secured in a front pouch.
Hydrate and pace
Carry a full water bottle even if water is provided; urban sun and light exertion add up quickly on a 2–3 hour ride.
Helmet
Protects against falls on cobbled or busy streets; confirm if provided by operator.
Water bottle or hydration pack
Keeps you hydrated through sun and wind-exposed sections along the river.

Comfortable flat-soled shoes
