Hi, Just seen a TV programme on C4 about Sufi music, which featured Fes Sacred Music Festival. Is this an annual event? If so What dates will it be on in 2006?
Also, what dates for Essaouira Gnaoua Festival 2006?
Best Wishes,

Hi - I will taking a trip to Portugal, and we decided to take it a step further and get ourselves to Morocco. I am trying to find out what is the best way to from Lisboa to the Morocco. There are a few trains and buses, but I can't seem to find solid information that I can use to plan my itnerary.

Our plan is to arrive in Lisbon and immediately begin to head to Spain to board the ferry to Tangier.

Any information regardling getting there/where to stay/ and where to go would be greatly appreciated!

Does anyone have any recommendations for a good hotel in Fez that is likely to have other backpackers? This will be my first taste of Morocco and would like a clean and safe environment that I can use as a kick off for the rest of my trip.

Thank you!

Hello,
I am going to be in Morocco for a short trip of six days in early August. Since I am short on time, I would like to make a night journey from Fes to Marrakech by train. Yet, since in August there will be many travelers, it is advised (from lonely planet and virtual tourist) to make reservations especially for a sleeping bed on the train. Does any one know the phone number of the train company or any way to make reservations. I checked the oncf.org.ma and it does not have any way of making reservation. Any answer or lead is greatly appreciated. Tousand of thanks. Qattous.

The CTM coach/train appears to have an arrival in Fes at 2am. Are there different CTM/Supratours connections to arrive in Fes at a more reasonable time.? If not, what other links are there from Nador to Fes?
