The trip at a glance
Between Casablanca and Tangier, Morocco runs its Al Boraq high-speed line, which turned a once-long journey into a fast link between the Atlantic and the Strait of Gibraltar.
Which option to choose
For a city-centre to city-centre trip, high speed is hard to beat. A car still makes sense if you plan to explore the coast, stop in Asilah, or continue to Chefchaouen.
The comparison table above shows the duration and indicative budget recorded for each mode on this route.
On the road
The road follows the A1 motorway via Kenitra and Larache. It is a fast toll route but still means a solid half-day behind the wheel in normal conditions.
Before you go
- Check the day's timetable with the operator: frequencies vary by season.
- Carry small change for connecting taxis and tolls.
- If you rent a car, get the insurance terms and deposit amount confirmed in writing.
