Before visiting, keep in mind that the Hassan II Mosque is an active place of worship, so tours are only available during certain hours. Non-Muslims are welcome to visit, but only on guided tours, which are conducted in multiple languages, including English, French, and Spanish. You’ll need to dress modestly, with women required to cover their shoulders and knees. Be prepared for a security check, and expect to spend about 45 minutes to an hour on the tour. Photography is allowed, but be mindful of restrictions during prayer times.

Getting to the Hassan II Mosque is easy from central Casablanca. If you're staying in the city’s downtown area, you can take a taxi or a local tram to the mosque. It’s just a short 15-minute drive from the Hassan II Square, and taxi drivers are familiar with the location. Public transportation, including buses and trams, also stops near the mosque. Alternatively, if you prefer walking, you can enjoy a scenic stroll along the oceanfront. The mosque’s grand exterior is visible from several points around Casablanca, so you’ll have no trouble finding your way there.

The best time to visit the Hassan II Mosque is during the morning or late afternoon when the weather is cooler, and the crowds are fewer. The mosque is open every day, but the tours are scheduled several times a day, so it’s a good idea to check ahead for available times. If you're visiting during the peak summer months (June to August), expect larger crowds, so try to arrive early to avoid waiting. The mosque is also beautifully lit at night, offering another stunning perspective of its architecture, making an evening visit equally rewarding.

The Hassan II Mosque can be easily incorporated into a full day of sightseeing in Casablanca. Start your day by exploring the nearby Old Medina, a maze of narrow streets full of shops and local life, then head to the mosque for a tour. Afterward, take a relaxing walk along the Corniche, a popular seaside promenade lined with restaurants and cafes. If you're interested in art and culture, the nearby Museum of Moroccan Judaism is a fascinating stop. For a more relaxed day, head to one of Casablanca’s beautiful beaches or enjoy a traditional Moroccan meal at a local restaurant after your visit to the mosque.
