Rabat is the capital of Morocco.

Direction Fes

To get to Fes, go to the Bab el-Bouiba (one of the gates to leave the Medina) and follow the road towards the shell petrol station you can see down the lane. Across the street from the Medina there's a bus stop, go over there and ask somebody which bus to take to the road to Fes (it's one of the ones waiting there). You'll get out at a petrol station, so you can chose to ask around there or walk down the road a couple of hundred meters where there's ample space for cars to pull over, and start hitching.

Direction South, Mauritania

The Mauritanian embassy in Rabat no longer issues visas - you now have to got to the Consulate in Casablanca. From there, it should be easy to hitch rides with overlanders.
