Hello Mari
Welcome on our board. For your question it's of course possible to go from Casablanca to Mekness by train.
It'll cost you about 10 euros= 128Dh, and it takes about 3hours.
For example you have a train departure at 08h24mn AM and it'll join Mekness at 11h32mn AM.

From Casablanca to Tangier on 13th August

and From Tangier to Marrakech on 21st August

How much will these journeys cost me?

Thanks

Default Train prices and trips

Hi funmi, I personally like the train method in Morocco, it's safer, faster and could be very interesting experience.

Here's the train timetables for the connections and dates you suggested. Traveling in 2nd class (2ème Classe ) is comfortable, and fair enough.

Marrakech - Casablanca :

Code:

392 Moroccan Dirham(s) = 48.4513 US Dollar(s)
1 USD = 8.0906 MAD
1 MAD = 0.1236 USD
Hope this helps

Thanks....this has been helpful.

Do I have to book these tickets in advance or can I buy them at the train station on the day?

Thanks

You could buy them in advance but I suggest to buy them the same day of your trip at the train station.

Default Trains during Ramadan

Hi there

I am planning a trip to Morocco in September and have heard that train timetables change over Ramadan. Are the revised timetables available online somewhere?

Thanks for your help.
