How To Get To Casablanca
Choosing to find your own way to Casablanca - made legendary by Humphrey Bogart in the film of the exact same name - is an excellent opportunity to create the start of your Moroccan adventure holiday by yourself.
More than a few Moroccan adventure trips leave from Casablanca.
Let’s keep it simple; to make it to Casablanca, from outside Africa, you will need to sail or fly.
Reaching Morocco by boat is possible from several destinations.
On the Costa del Sol you can get under way from Algeciras to Tangier in sixty to 70 minutes. The boat departs hourly and the fare is just about EUR thirty.
The boat from Tarifa to Tangier is even way quicker: it will get you there in 35 minutes. It leaves 5 times per day & the price is in the region of EUR twenty.
And finally you can sail from France, Sete, if you want to spend 36 hours on a boat. Fares deviate according to company and season. Comarit charges EUR 46 (one-way) for a ticket during the low season. The cheapest fares at Comanav start at EUR 105 one-way for a bunk bed. You can sail from Sete to Tangier two to 4 times weekly, all year around
To find and book your boat trip; simply Search for “Ferry from Algeciras to Tangier”, “Sail from Tarifa to Tangier” or “Boat from Sete to Tangier” and you are on your way.
Reaching Morocco by boat is possible from several destinations.
It is really worth staying a few days in Tangier if you have the option, before you go to Casablanca.
The train journey lasts for almost 3 hours – but it is air-conditioned and trains in Morocco are very comfy and fairly affordable.
You can also get low-budget flights connecting Tangier & Casablanca. If you are two-three people on a journey together try to organize a fair deal with a taxi.
