Driving in Casablanca is easy on the way out of the airport and hard once you reach the city center. Mohammed V airport connects straight to the motorway network, so you can head for Rabat, Marrakech or El Jadida without entering downtown, but central Casablanca has heavy traffic and scarce, informal parking, and many visitors […]
The Marrakech to Essaouira road trip is the easiest coastal escape you can do in a single day, and it’s one most rental customers ask us about within their first week here. The drive is about 190 km on well-maintained roads via Chichaoua, takes roughly two and a half hours without stops, and swaps the […]
Last updated: October 20, 2026 Short answer: yes, if you skip night driving and choose your roads Yes, most tourists can drive safely in Morocco, and many do. But the roads are less forgiving than many visitors expect, and the official numbers show it. Morocco recorded 4,577 road deaths in 2025, according to preliminary data […]
The Tizi n Tichka pass (also written Tizi n’Tichka) is the road everyone talks about before they drive it and the one nobody stops talking about afterward. It carries the N9 over the High Atlas at 2,260 metres, linking Marrakech to Ouarzazate and, beyond that, the gateway towns of the Sahara. If you’re renting a […]
The fuel prices Morocco travelers worry about most are diesel and regular unleaded, and the honest answer is: it’s not going to break your road trip budget, but it’s also not as low as some visitors expect either.

Dades Valley Morocco trips almost always start the same way: someone mentions the Tizi n’Tichka, everyone nods, and the Dades Gorges further east get forgotten entirely. That’s a mistake. The road from Ouarzazate out past Skoura, Kelaat M’Gouna and into the gorges themselves is one of the most rewarding stretches of tarmac in the country, […]
A marrakech to fes road trip covers one of the longest stretches you can drive in Morocco without touching the coast, and it earns the distance. You leave the red walls of Marrakech, climb into cedar forest around Ifrane, and roll down into the blue gates of Fes by evening. It is not a quick […]
Convertible car rental Marrakech bookings spike every spring and fall, right when the weather actually makes sense for driving with the roof down. Marrakech sits in a strange climate pocket: desert-dry heat for half the year, mild and genuinely pleasant for the other half. Get the timing right and a convertible is one of the […]
Long term car rental Morocco bookings used to be a niche request mostly from oil and construction crews. That has changed. Remote workers staying two or three months, retirees doing a slow winter in Marrakech or Essaouira, and small businesses that need a reliable vehicle without buying one now make up a real share of […]
If you’re planning a road trip, toll roads in Morocco are one of those details nobody mentions until you’re sitting at a barrier with Moroccan dirhams you forgot to withdraw. The good news is the system is simple once you understand it, and it rarely adds more than a few hundred dirhams to a multi-day […]
