Taxis in Marrakech
Taking a taxi in Marrakech is extremely easy and convenient. The first thing you should note is that there are two types of Marrakech taxi, Petit and Grand. Petit taxis can fit up to 3 people and function like regular taxis, but can only run within the city ring. On the other hand, Grand taxis can fit up to 8 people and they have set routes within the city and between cities, much like a minibus. You can easily catch a Marrakech taxi by hailing one from the street or walking to a taxi rank.
Cost of a Marrakech taxi
If you choose to take a Petit taxi, you will be charged using a taximeter based on the distance you travel. However, if you choose to take a Grand taxi, you will be charged a set fee for that specific journey. For the Petit taxi, you have a base fare and then an additional cost for every km you cover and all prices should be shown on a card in the taxi window.
Base fare – €0.66
Price per km day (06:00 to 20:00) – €0.18
Price per km night (20:00 to 06:00) – €0.37
Please keep in mind that there may be additional fees for things such as travelling during major holidays, excess luggage, keeping your driver waiting, transfers from Marrakech airport and booking your Marrakech taxi over the phone.
N.B CHECK THAT YOUR METER IS WORKING. OFTEN THEY ARE BROKEN AND THE DRIVER WILL MAKE UP A PRICE AT THE END. TRY TO SET ONE AT THE BEGINNING.
How to get a taxi in Marrakech
Taking a Marrakesh taxi is very easy. To hail one in the street, all you need to do is locate one of the beige taxis with the yellow ‘TAXI’ sign on top and stick out your arm. You can also walk to one of the designated taxi ranks which can be found throughout the city, at tourist spots, at plaza Djemaa el Fna, Bab-Doukala, and the Bab-Ghmat urban centre. Usually, the ranks carry both Petit and Grand taxis, so if you’re unsure of which to take, be sure to ask.
