Travel Around Morocco

Trains, buses and grand-taxis are an easy way of getting around Morocco; as is renting a car and driving at your own pace. However, if you have limited time, hiring a vehicle and Moroccan driver is the ideal way to explore and learn about the culture and, if you hire is a 4x4, you can avoid the busy tourist routes and travel off-road across the pistes to experience the hospitality and traditional lifestyle of the Berber people.

Trains in Morocco

Trains run between Tangier, Meknes, Fez, Oujda, Rabat, Casablanca and Marrakech and are both safe and comfortable. The Moroccan national train service ONCF lists the schedules and fares: http://www.oncf.ma/Index_en.aspx

Buses in Morocco

Buses owned by the national bus companies e.g. Supratours, CTM and SATAS run between major towns and cities. Long-distance buses are comfortable and tickets are purchased at the bus depot.

Taxis in Morocco

Taxis are either ‘petit’ (within towns) or ‘grand’ (between towns). Petit taxis work like regular taxis anywhere and, by law, should have a meter - if it doesn't work negotiate your fare in advance. Grand taxis (usually Mercedes saloons) are shared taxis but you can negotiate a price if you want the journey to yourself – a well turned out vehicle and driver is usually a good indication of a well maintained vehicle.
