We’re currently in Morocco (leaving tonight) and made a visit to Marrakesh last Wednesday 29th May. We did a coach tour from our hotel in Agadir but will definitely be making a return visit to the country to see more of it and enjoy the architecture. Glad to see the railways are getting support and hopefully one day Agadir will be linked to Marrakesh by train rather than a 4 hour coach journey. Such a fascinating country.
Great video, thank you. The more I see of Morocco, the more I feel the need to visit again, so I’m definitely looking forward to your next Moroccan reports. The big stations especially look spectacular.
I think it's faster than most European countries. However some lines (for example east from Fes) are pretty slow, mayve the average speed is still pretty high because where trains can go fast there are more trains. And honestly, the way they are investing in high speed rail now, partly I think it's awesome however I truly think that upgrading tracks, frequency and trains can be more important than traveling a little bit faster. In spain I noticed vert expensive bridges that cut down the travel time by 3 minutes for only 10 trains per day or so. I love to cover Greece (including ferries from / to Italy) as well on my channel by the way, it's not a question of if more a question of when, but I'll go there for sure one day.

The landscape in Morocco is stunning. Very nice video. I am looking forward to seeing more Morocco train videos.
It is absolutely wonderful in Morocco.
Brilliant video ,love to see the Moroccan trains. Thanks 🤩 👍
Thank you, Morocco is awesome for sure. I really want to try to cover more in (nothern) Africa in general.

Thanks, yes Morocco is a great place to visit, personally I would avoid it when it's super hot in the summer though haha.
Thanks, cool video and music, I enjoy visiting Morocco. I took the train from Marrakech to Casablanca and now they have the TGV, thanks
The Al Boraq (TGV) is also really nice. I have a video coming up on that as well.
Another fascinating video! Morocco's train network is far faster than Greece's...

Al atlas local and Al Boraq express
By 2030, Morocco will replace the Atlas trains with new ones and add high-speed rails up to Marrakech.
