It's easy to take the train. As soon as we got off the train in Casablanca we met a limo driver and asked if he could take us around the city. He couldn't but called a friend with a taxi and drove us around all day anywhere we wanted for $30. There were 3 of us so 10 bucks a head aint bad.
You can either fly in from many of the major cities around Europe, or come overland from Spain. There are regular ferries from Algeciras and its easy enough to stay overnight in Tangier or take a train further onwards.The trains are brilliant and very reliable. 2nd class is very comfortable, and 1st even more so. There are plenty of buses, but these are often not of a great standard, and you need to take greater care at stations and on buses. Transport and backpacker tours can be booked in Marrakech for the deep south with Hotel Ali or Hotel Foucauld.
Inside Morocco I've travelled by car and train. The train system here is excellent, quick and not expensive, one is able to get almost anywhere via the train. I've also taken the sea shore road from Casablanca to Agadir then on to Marrakech. The road is in excellent condition although one has to be very very careful while driving, there are some silly drivers and lots of trucks but worthwhile just the same. The scenery is just beautiful! The autoroute from Casablanca to Meknes and Fes is 'better than most roads in Quebec'...sorry there but the truth! The speed limit on the autoroute is 120 kilometers.. compared to the secondary roads which vary from 60 to 100 kilometers.
I flew with Air Morocco to the country.We started getting around using busses and the train, but we saw it takes much longer time, which we didn't have, so we rented a car. We rented it in some un-known and cheap place in Marakesh, but it turned out fine, and they didn't even take too much extra charge for returning it in a different city. I recommend this as a woderful way to get around if your schedule is tight. The roads are safe, the drivers are polite and it worked out great for us.
We had to fly into Casablanca, and then transfer to Fez. Appears this is true for many other cities as well. Fez is a small airport, but flying seemed preferable to travel by train.We took the train from the airport into Casblanca since I had about 5 hours of layover one day. We had to wait a long time for the train, and nearly had a heart attack getting back, since the schedule was NOT what I had been told in the airport. The train was cheap, only about 30 dirhams for 2 of us as compared to a taxi ride to Casablanca of 200 dirhams. But once there, we found the area around the station a bit depressing, as was the casbah. Best to go straight to the Mosque of Hassan, unless you're staying over. Within Fez and Casablanca, we took cabs, but they were sometimes hard to find. Ask your hotel to help.
It is no problem using the buses or the train; in every bigger town you'll find a busstation. If you want to see things more individually, than rent a car, especially for the high atlas and the western Sahara.
Se puede perfectamente ir con el coche de uno. Aunque mi viejo coche ya murio años despues, me llevo por todo Marruecos, e incluso una averia (los discos) que tuve, me la arreglaron sin problemas, y mas barata que en España. Eso si, por el sur en algun que otro sitio nos toco empujar!!
I was flying into Casablanca Airport with (good - ? - old, but bankrupt) Sabena. The most interesting way to get into the country must be on a ferry from Spain... Many major European airlines and charters fly to Casablanca, Agadir or Marrakech.On a coach round trip you don't have much choice. Oh, I forgot the jeep trips to the desert and up the Atlas Mountains!
morrco very close to spain sp u can go to morocco by swiming (seriously) or by car or by plane.the cheapest way ofcourse is the boats.morocco has really some good looking street with nice buildings but ofcourse it's smaller than in cairo-egypt the biggest capital in africa and middle east.
I went by boat from my country, spain, daily ferries conect the coast of algeciras, Malaga and Almeria with Ceuta and Melilla (Spain) and Tanger and Nador (Morocco).It is the best option, because you can process your passport inside the boat.Uncorfortable, you have to be like a Rockefeller, ready to negotiate the price with the taxi driver everytime. NO TAXIMETER!!.They will try to charge you depending of your nationality, and..probably more than a reasonable price.. The best option is rent a car for getting around
