Getting there

Montréal to Casablanca

The busiest way into the country from Québec. It is not always the right one for your trip.

Why Casablanca first

Casablanca has Morocco's main international airport. It is the most common arrival point from North America, and the hub domestic flights run from.

If your trip starts in the north of the country, or if it is a family visit across several cities, Casablanca is usually the logical door.

Casablanca or Marrakech?

If your trip is centred on Marrakech, arriving into Casablanca adds a leg. The train connects the two cities and it is a comfortable ride, but it is half a day to account for after a transatlantic flight.

Flying straight into Marrakech puts you about twenty minutes from the medina. Ask us to compare both for your dates rather than deciding in advance.

When demand climbs

In Canada, interest in Morocco peaks in March and stays high from January through April. August and October are the troughs.

That means the tightest booking window falls in winter, for a spring departure. If you are aiming at March, start early.

Common questions

Is it better to fly into Casablanca or Marrakech?

It depends on the itinerary. Casablanca for a trip starting in the north or spanning several cities, Marrakech if the Red City is the heart of the trip.

When is the best time to book?

Canadian demand peaks in March, so spring departures get organised over the winter. Noor Voyages will tell you what is genuinely available for your dates.
