Does Casablanca have underground street crossing places or other public activities? Or are there public areas underneath a building (for shade)?

We are investigating at the TU Delft, The Netherlands if there are any underground crossings in Casablanca, which type of society uses it and how they work.

Monday we will fly to Casablanca. If you could answer me before, I would be very thankfull! If you know some more underground crossings in Casablanca, I am interested to know them, so that we can visit and analyze them.

Kind regards,

I will be coming from Marrakesh and then will be on my way to Rabat.

Do you know if there is a place I can leave my luggage in the Casa Voyeurs or

Hello.

Maybe a month ago, when I started planning my Moroccan trip, I found a website where one could book his visit of the Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca. However, I did not bookmark it back then and today I tried really hard to find it and I could not. Maybe the problem is that the website was in French and I used only English keywords to look it up in Google. Could anybody try to find it? I guess it might not be necessary to book a visit in advance, but I have already decided on my schedule and I am certain when I will go to the mosque.

Thank you very much

Hi there - hoping someone can point us in the right direction.

We want to rent a car to drive up the coast and drop off in Tangier. So one way travel. We would like to rent it in downtown Casa if possible and drop it off in downtown Tangier - same day. We just want to see a bit of the coast and make a few stops. The trouble we seem to find is that we are driving on a Sunday so pickup/drop off seem limited. We can (and would actually prefer) pick up the night before (Saturday) but we still need to drop the car off on Sunday.

Does anyone know of a good, inexpensive rental company that is open Sunday and will rent for one day, one way?

Thanks for the help!!
Looking forward to exploring Morocco!

Do all flights fly into Cassa from the USA because when I put in to Morocco from NY it says Rabat ??? Also does any one know of a reputable driver with a car that we could hire for around 10 days or should we just get one from an agency in Morocco ??? Cheers

Hi all,

I would greatly appreciate it if someone can tell me if it is possible to take my two suitcases (one large suitcase and the other is a small carry-on bag) on the train. I will be taking the train from Casablanca airport to Rabat and I would like to know if the train can accommodate my luggage.

Thanks in advance

I will be going to Casablanca this coming June for about a week or so, I am curious where the best place to stay would be. I am a student and looking to spend as little as possible on hotel/hostel. I have found the Youth Hostel, however, my emails requesting information have gone unanswered. Anyone have any ideas?

Also, it would fun to get out east and see the dunes or the Desert. I am not sure of transit times as far as bus or train and was wondering if anyone knew the easiest way to get a glimpse of the Sahara and possibly get a camel ride.

thanks again

Hello All, im transitting in Casablanca for about 2 and 1/2 hours and id love to see a bit of the town, is there anything i can do or a close enough venue i can go to see within my time span?

Any advice and recommendations?

will be in casablanca for two nights (april 18-20) before meeting up with my old peace corps group for a return trip to our old stamping grounds (we were Morocco I, 1962-65.) have decided to stay at a hotel on the corniche (i think??), spend part of a day walking around casa (for old times' sake). have to meet up with group at 7am on sunday, april 20th at casablanca airport.

have researched hotels and have come up with some possibilities: club val d'anfa hotel, hotel azur, hotel de la corniche, hotel bellerive, or riad salaam (somewhat pricier than the others). all have received good and bad reviews on virtual tourist and on tripadvisor. any ideas as to which might be the best accomodation, best location on the beach, easiest to access the airport, etc.???

thanks in advance for the help.

my 20 year old will be flying from Accra Ghana to JFK with a connection
in Casablanca, Morocco.
Is it a reasonably safe airport-- are the chances good that she will get her
luggage on the other end.
She had a RT flight on N.American airlines direct and it was cancelled-- so this
was the best we could do to get her back to the states-- ie least stops and cheapest. Any advice or experience with the airport?

Good morning from Oz to all you incredible travel advisers...I'd like to 'do' a tour out of Casablanca for about 3 weeks..not too arduous but interesting and exciting and of course at the right price...I can get a really good return airfare with Ethiad out of Brisbane, (only for May) so I'd be very grateful for any advice...thanks everyone..regards Elly in Oz.

Hi, Can I ask what time is the earliest bus (CTM) / Train to Esssauira from Casablanca?

My husband and I are stopping at Casablanca on a cruise. Can we get to Marrakech on a tour from Casablanca? or should we take the cruise ship's tour. It is starting at $119 per person.

Hi all
Can someone give me the contact information (phone number, email etc) for Club Val d'Anfa Hotel in Casa?

Based on TripAdvisor and VirtualTourist recommendations, this seems to be my best choice for price, comfort, location and service. The price i am getting online is about US$100 per night.

I will be at the Sheraton for work from Jan 27 through 31 and then spending Jan 31-Feb 2 exploring Casa on my own.

Thank you in advance for your help.
