Located just 30 km south of Casablanca in the Berrechid Province, Mohammed V International Airport is the busiest airport in Morocco. It's a gateway to the exotic landscapes, vibrant markets and rich history that Morocco has to offer. With flights from major UK airports, getting here is a breeze.
Car Rental at Mohammed V International Airport
No matter what your travel itinerary looks like, there's a car hire at Mohammed V International Airport that suits your needs. Conveniently located within the airport, you'll find several rental companies including Avis, Europcar, and Hertz.
Car Class Recommendations
Choosing the car class mostly depends on your travel needs:
- Economy and Compact: Ideal for city breaks, short distances, and solo travelers.
- Intermediate and Full Size: Suitable for families, couples, and long distances.
- 4WD/SUV: Recommended for adventures, off-road trips, and large groups.
On the Road
Driving in Morocco can be a unique experience, particularly if you're used to UK roads. Here are a few tips to get you started:
- The traffic in Morocco drives on the right-hand side of the road.
- Be aware that road signs are usually in Arabic and French. However, main road signs may have English translations.
- Seat belts are mandatory for all passengers, and mobile phones can only be used with a hands-free system.
Filling Up
You'll find several petrol stations within a couple of miles of the airport. Note that Moroccans typically use the term "petrol" rather than "gas". Petrol stations are usually manned, and card payment is generally accepted, though carrying some local currency (Moroccan Dirham) can be useful for smaller establishments.
En Route to Your Accommodation
The airport is well connected to Casablanca city centre via toll highways. The toll fees are relatively small and payable in cash. For a hassle-free journey, consider using the route via A7 and A5 which takes approximately 40 minutes.
Your Adventure Awaits
Once you've left the airport, the real adventure begins. Whether you're heading for the vibrant city of Casablanca, the idyllic coastal town of Essaouira, or the fascinating Marrakech, driving in Morocco is a journey in itself. Have a safe trip!
