The race is on a Sunday, so Monday is the travel day. A published ONCF table has shown a service from Rabat Agdal at 07:42 reaching Casa Voyageurs at 08:44, which is 62 minutes. That was an ordinary timetable from an earlier season, so check the April schedule before you rely on it.

April in Casablanca: mild, with some rain on a few days. A light layer is enough.

Night One: Casablanca

Take manageable luggage on the train and a taxi at the far end. Choose one seated visit and leave the rest of the afternoon free. Ask your hotel for a recommendation near your room, since the city is spread out and traffic is slow. Book a table for dinner.

Where to Stay

Pick a hotel near Casa Voyageurs station or near your onward airport transfer, and ask about late checkout. Check current rates directly.

Getting Home

Ask the hotel to arrange a taxi or transfer to the airport, and agree the fare in advance. Leave plenty of time, since the airport is a good way out of the city.
