Is there a toll Marrakech and Morocco?

There are exactly four motorways in Morocco:

• Tangier Med - Agadir (with interruptions)
• Rabat - Oujda
• Fnideq - Tetouan
• Berrechid - Beni-Mellal

Most of the motorway routes are subject to a charge. Exceptions are bypasses for some major cities. There are two ways to settle the bill, either you draw a ticket at an ATM at the beginning or you pay a fee that depends on the distance travelled. Or you can pay directly at a toll station after each motorway section.

What insurance do I need for my hired car in Marrakech?

Choose the right insurance for your hired car

When hiring a car, for your own protection, you should always choose "comprehensive insurance without excess", regardless of the country. You should also pay attention to a high liability coverage. The liability should cover at least one million euros in damages, or even 7.5 million euros. Moroccan car hire insurance policies often do not cover the full amount of damage caused by the accident. For this reason, pay close attention to the details when hiring and have a contract drawn up in a language that you understand.

How to include an additional driver for the hired car:

If you don't want to spend the whole time of your stay in Marrakech and Morocco alone at the wheel, you can have an additional driver for the hired car included in the price. Usually a small additional fee is charged for this service, which is often charged per day. However, there are also offers that include an additional driver free of charge. Here an online comparison is worthwhile in advance.

When is a trip to Marrakech worthwhile?

Marrakech is definitely worth a visit all year round. However, the most pleasant time to travel is in spring or autumn, when it is pleasantly warm and neither too hot nor too cold. The fact that the country blossoms and appears in colourful splendour speaks for spring. In autumn, on the other hand, it can be a bit sparse after the hot summer. If you want to escape the cold winter, you can do it in Marrakech. The temperatures are mild, but at times warmer than in the homeland.
