Hotel

Kasbah Bab Ourika

The Kasbah Bab Ourika is a stunning, secluded resort hotel nestled at the foot of the Atlas Mountains. It is our favorite place in the world and will be our home for the wedding weekend. Hotel accommodation at the Kasbah will be provided for all guests from Wednesday, January 6 to Saturday, January 9. For those three nights, guests' lodging will be covered. There is nothing you need to do to secure a room beyond RSVP. We will assign rooms based on party size. Breakfast is included. Lunch on Thursday and Friday will be on your own at the Kasbah's restaurant. We highly encourage guests to take advantage of the many Activities and Spa options available at the Kasbah. See the Things To Do page for more details. If you are interested in staying at the Kasbah before or after the wedding weekend, please reach out to us directly so we can connect you with the best hotel contact.

Flight

Marrakesh Menara Airport (RAK)

IATA: RAK ICAO: GMMX Marrakesh Menara Airport is the most convenient airport for wedding guests to fly into. Unless you are planning to explore Morocco beyond the Kasbah or Marrakech before or after the wedding, this is the airport you should plan to use. It is an approximately 70 minute drive from the Kasbah, with convenient ground transportation, which we will assist you to arrange through the hotel.

Flight

Casablanca Mohammed V International Airport (CMN)

IATA: CMN ICAO: GMMN Mohammed V International Airport in Casablanca is Morocco's major international airport. If you plan to use our wedding as the perfect excuse to explore further afield, flying into Casablanca may be a good or better option. Transit to Marrakech by rail (~4 hours) or rental car/private driver (~3 hours) is easily doable.

Train

National Railways Office (ONCF)

ONCF is Morocco's national railway operator. It runs regular and high-speed trains linking the country's major cities. For those looking to explore Morocco who do not want the hassle of a rental car (and who are up for just a little bit of adventure) the trains can be a great option. On previous trips, we travelled by train from Marrakech to Fes and from Fes to Casablanca.

Travel Note

Rental Cars

Rental cars are available at each airport and the major highways between cities are quite good. While we have not driven during our previous trips to Morocco (we prefer the train), several friends have rented vehicles and driven themselves around the country with no issue. Your U.S. or UK Driver's License is valid to drive in Morocco.
