It happened to me with a hitchhiker who recited his prayers the whole ride. Maybe because it was my wife driving !
Oh yeah! Woman driver, accident around the corner...ðĪŠ

If you only have a backpack, it's best to head to the main boulevard in Mhamid and take the bus (12/11) for 4 DH.
Or a shared taxi for 5 DH.
Or a taxi with a negotiated price (20-25 DH) to the square.
Otherwise, from the airport, bus no. 19 for 30 DH.
For airport taxis, I’m not too sure 😏😏😏

Hi there,
Thanks for your help. I’ve got a question for you—on our last day, our flight is really early. Can you tell me if there are any hotels near Marrakech Airport? I don’t remember, and it’s to make the transfer easier.
Best,
Davmax

Near the airport, I’ve never noticed any hotels.
The airport isn’t too far from the city center..
Early in the morning, the trip takes 15 minutes max, leaving from Jemaa el-Fna square.
Have a great trip.

Even when my flight leaves early in the morning, I still stay overnight in the city. If it's *really* early, have the hotel book a taxi for you. It only takes about fifteen minutes to get to the airport, especially early in the morning.

Thanks Olivard and Trostang, that’s exactly what I was thinking too—I’d never seen a hotel near the airport. Okay, 15 minutes by taxi in the morning.

When I leave my hotel around 7 AM, I easily find a taxi on Avenue Mohamed V.

Hi,
For car rental with Medloc, are they pretty reliable? How much does it cost per day for a small car for two people? Do you have a contact or a website? You can write here or DM me. Thanks for the info.
Best,

Medloc has always met our expectations since we’ve been renting our car from him—going on about twenty years now. Let’s hope it keeps up! He has a website with the different car types and rates based on rental duration. After that, don’t hesitate to negotiate, especially if it’s during the low season.

I’d say the same as Daniel—Medloc is very reliable.
For off-season prices, it’s possible to negotiate. Ask for a quote on their website, and you’ll get a quick response.
A deposit of 1,000 € will be required, and with your credit card, it’s just a temporary hold that’ll be released as soon as you return the car.

I'm happy with it too: cars in good condition, staff on time, not too fussy when we returned the car.

We rented a car from Medloc for our 3 trips to Morocco, and we’re thinking of them for the next one.

When we think about it, we're already almost on our way.
