I have three times! It's a fantastic experience. You can take a ship from La Linea to Tangier and then get a night train to Marrakech via Casablanca. I recommend getting a sleeping birth. You can't buy the tickets on-line via a site for the train but I have a very reliable contact(travel agent in Tangier) who you can email and purchase tickets from. If you can, stay a night or two in Tangier...its a fascinating city! Do you have a place to stay in Marrakech? If not, I recommend Riad Karmela.

Travelling from Portugal to Morocco
We recently took advantage of the Van-Lisbon sale and are thinking of travelling south to Seville, Gibraltar, and Tangier. We are considering taking trains in Morocco, possibly an overnight to Casablanca and on to Marrakech. We are also looking for advice on the ferry or flights to/from Morocco.

Has anyone taken trains in Morocco, maybe an overnight to Casablanca and on to Marrakech? Any advice for the ferry or flights to/from Morocco.
