Driving in Morocco
Once in Morocco, there is a magnificent network of highways and national roads that connect Ceuta-Tangier and Melilla, Nador with Rabat Casablanca, Marrakech, Fes, Meknes, Oujda, El Jadida, Agadir, Errachidía, Ouarzazate, Zagora, etc…
Special attention deserves the new Mediterranean road from Saidia in the east runs along the coast until Tangier.
The secondary network is in worse conditions, with narrow roads poorly signposted and often with side steps.
Due to the state of the network, the numerous passers-by, the strong police control, and the way of driving of the population, a moderate speed and greater caution than usual is recommended, strictly respecting the traffic signs.

Morocco by train

By bus and taxi
From the ports of entry, bus lines connect with all the main cities, although they are slow, unpunctual, and of worse quality than the European lines.
A good price alternative is to rent a taxi, especially for short trips, which can be shared with other travelers.
Taxis allow 4 passengers behind and two in front, but if you want to go more comfortably, we recommend paying for the two seats next to the driver.
The price, for example, between the border of Ceuta and Teuan, 35 km, is usually between 1.5 to 2 euros.
