Marrakech to Meknes: questions

What travellers ask us before they book this transfer.

How long is the drive from Marrakech to Meknes?
Count on 470 km of road and about 5–6 hours behind the wheel via Casablanca and Rabat, not counting photo or tea stops. Longer legs are paced with rests.
How is a private Marrakech to Meknes transfer quoted?
Every transfer is custom-quoted, private or small-group, because the right vehicle depends on your group and luggage: a sedan seats 1–3 travellers, a 4x4 up to 6 and a minivan up to 7. Your quote covers fuel, tolls, your driver and bottled water, with nothing extra waiting at the end. Send your dates, party and bags with the quote form and we reply by email; cancellation and refunds follow Serenity Morocco Tours' booking terms.
Can we stop for photos or sightseeing along the way?
Yes. Stopping when you want is the reason to take a private car over the train or a shuttle. On this route you can break at Casablanca and Rabat, or at any lookout you point out. Want a guide at a stop? We will write it up as a day tour.
Is it better to drive or take the train from Marrakech to Meknes?
Either works on this route. The train costs less station to station. The private car runs door to door, takes all your bags, leaves when you choose and stops on the way. For families and tight onward connections, we recommend the car.

Send us your dates and your flight. We'll quote the car.

  1. Tell us what drew you in. Your dates, who is travelling and what you want to see.
  2. A person reads it. We write a day-by-day plan for your group, private or small-group.
  3. You change anything. Then we confirm the guides, drivers and riads.
