Train or Private Driver?
A train runs from the airport station to Casablanca in about an hour, and trains continue to Marrakech, Rabat, Fes and Tangier. Check times on ONCF. However, trains do not reach the Sahara or the Atlas valleys. Therefore, a private driver is the easier choice for a desert route, especially after a long flight.
Tips for Your Arrival Day
- Get some dirhams at an airport ATM, since cash is useful from day one.
- Buy a local SIM card at arrivals if you need data.
- After a long-haul flight, keep the first day short.
- Visit the Hassan II Mosque, one of the few mosques open to non-Muslim visitors on guided tours.
- Read our Morocco travel tips for first-timers before you fly.
