Means of transport Atlantic Coast

There are two tram lines. Line 1, which goes from Sidi Moumen to the Corniche and the Lissasfa district via the university. Line 2 extends from Sidi Bernoussi to Ain Diab Plage. By 2022, the economic capital will have four lines extending over 110 km.

Certainly the most convenient system for getting around the region. Buses are very comfortable, especially the Premium ones where you are given a small bottle of water and where it is now possible to recharge your electronic devices. Arrival and departure in Essaouira are at the Bab Marrakech terminal, directly at the gates of the medina and accessible on foot. Check the timetables, knowing that connections to Marrakech or Agadir are quite frequent. And above all, don't forget to book your seats directly on the spot or online. Have a nice trip!

Half an hour by taxi from downtown. It is very difficult to reach the station by phone, better check the hours and rates via the ONCF site.

Two tramway lines connect Rabat to Salé, separated by the Bouregreg wadi. In all, 32 stations that extend over 19 km. Line 1 runs from Madinat Al Irfane (Rabat) to Hay Karima (Salé). Line 2 runs from the Ocean district to Salé station.

Located in downtown at the level of the port, this station, with the style and design was inaugurated in 2014 after several years of work. The station was modernized and has a greater capacity since it attracts on average 10,000 passengers per day. It offers regional links, especially in Rabat, on average for long distances.

Mohammed V Airport is located 30 km south-east of the city. To reach the center of Casa, several solutions:

The most practical. At exit 1, white taxis are waiting for travelers to take them to the city center of Casablanca. Forecast around 300 DH.

The least expensive: the train from the train station, located under the arrivals hall. Connections to the city center at the Casa port and Casa port stations all hours from 07:00 a. m. to 10:00 p. m. from 6 a. m. to 10 p. m., in the opposite direction, to reach the airport. The ticket is 10 DH and approximately 20 minutes drive.

To get to the airport located 16 km from the city, you can take a taxi. If you don't want to go through Marrakech, it is worthwhile to go directly to Essaouira. Tickets are sometimes cheaper, but there are fewer flights. Royal Air Maroc and Transavia are represented with flights from Orly, Marseille, Brussels and sometimes Charleroi. As the flight schedule is subject to changes according to the season, it is essential to consult the site.

The airport of Rabat-Salé is fresh new, a little eccentric, taxis will take about 200 DH to make the airport/downtown route. It is possible to go there with a big taxi from Rabat center, but not by bus. Since 1998 there are interior lines in the direction of Agadir and Laâyoune. In January 2012, a terminal was opened to allow traffic to grow. A new Brussels-Rabat line by Jetairfly has also been put in place. There are two possibilities to go there by its own means: on the one hand with the shuttle from Mohammed V Avenue, opposite the downtown railway station and Terminus Hotel, close to the angle of Moulay Youssef Avenue, departures are scheduled for two hours before flight time (20 DH travel). Shuttle service available from the airport to the city center according to arrivals.

It is the main train station. Hours and rates available on the website of the ONCF.

It would be difficult to list all buses departing from Casablanca. The city is a bus station between the north and south buses. Daily, many buses serve all the towns. For example, there are a dozen buses a day towards Rabat (35 DH, 1:15 a. m.), a dozen for Marrakech (between 90 and 120 DH, 3:30 a. m., 3:30 a. m.), Agadir (between 215 and 270 DH, 6:30 p. m.) Ès… There are also many international buses from Casablanca. Another bus station is located rue des Oulad Ziane, but the companies working there are unprofessional and therefore poorly advised for basic security reasons.

The small reception office of the CTM company is located a little off-center in the new city in the Azlef district. It provides bus transportation to various cities, but also courier services, useful if you have a parcel or luggage to send. Many daily departures to Marrakech, Agadir, El Jadida. Do not hesitate to consult the website to check the timetable, which may be subject to change; you can even buy tickets online. Definitely the best way to travel at low cost.
