Overview

Discover Casablanca’s Jewish heritage through a private experience that connects Morocco’s history with your family roots.

Before the tour, share your family name, ancestral city, synagogue, neighborhood, or any details you may have. Our team will conduct a preliminary heritage search to help personalize your experience.

With a private licensed guide and driver, visit the Museum of Moroccan Judaism, the historic Jewish quarter, Beth-El Synagogue, additional heritage sites when access permits, and Casablanca’s Jewish cemetery.

Supported by the Mimouna Association and backed by 90+ Tripadvisor reviews, we also work with tour operators and travel agencies serving travelers from the USA, Canada, UK, Israel, and other international markets.

Includes private transport, entrance fees, hotel or cruise-port pickup, and a personalized heritage summary.

What to expect

  1. Museum of Moroccan Judaism
    1h 30m · Admission ticket included
    Explore the only Jewish museum in the Arab world. With your expert guide, gain exclusive access to the genealogical archives, featuring centuries-old marriage contracts (ketubot), historical community photographs, and preserved family registers.
  2. 1h
    Walk the historic streets where Casablanca's Jewish families built a life alongside their Muslim neighbors for generations. See the traditional overhanging balcony architecture and search for fading Hebrew inscriptions on doorways. If your ancestors' specific address is known, we will customize the route to pass by their former family home.
  3. Temple Beth-El
    45m · Admission ticket included
    Step inside one of the most magnificent and beautifully maintained active synagogues in North Africa. Admire the striking stained-glass windows and stand inside the historic sanctuary where your family most likely gathered to pray, celebrate, and mark generations of milestones.
  4. 30m · Admission ticket included
    Visit this intimate, historic neighborhood synagogue. Unlike the grand community temples, this is where everyday Jewish neighborhood life unfolded—from weekday minyans to tight-knit bar mitzvahs and community gatherings.
  5. Casablanca Old Jewish Cemetery
    45m
    A deeply moving and respectful visit to honor those who came before. With advance notice, we can help search for ancestral graves. Participate in the beautiful, traditional Jewish ritual of placing a small stone on a grave as an enduring act of shared memory.
