Car rental in Morocco

In Morocco, as in every other nation where we’ve traveled by car, we identified the best rental company, the best costs, and the best Car rental in Morocco conditions for you. We discovered all the nuances of Car rental in Morocco, devised the best routes, drove around on our own, and gathered complete and up-to-date information on car rental and car tours in Morocco for 2021: whether you need MHI, what nuances there are, pros and cons, traffic rules, prices, toll roads, whether you can rent without a deposit, and much more!

Why should you rent a car in Morocco?

Morocco is a large and fascinating country, with ancient Fez, Meknes, Marrakech, Casablanca, and the beaches of Agadir, Essaouira, and Legzira on the Atlantic coast in the southwest, Tangier, the Strait of Gibraltar, and the Mediterranean coast in the northeast, and the Sahara desert and Berber kasars in the southwest, including the legendary Ait Ben-Haddou. The High Atlas Mountains cut through the country’s center, and the majority of the country’s interesting cities, locations, and attractions are situated around these mountains.

Morocco is about 1200×500 kilometers in size. The roads are lengthy and winding, and the distances are great. For instance, drive 500-850km from Fez to Marrakech depending on the route taken.

Car rental in Morocco without a deposit (collateral) and franchising

In Morocco, you cannot rent a car without a deposit unless you purchase complete insurance. Furthermore, the size of the deposit, and thus the deductible, in Morocco is very high – from 900 to 1500 euros in Moroccan dirhams for a car in the economy or middle class!

You must purchase complete insurance if you do not want to freeze such a significant amount on your credit card and/or are concerned about the safety of the car and your pocketbook. Full CASCO insurance might cost as little as 8 euros per day, depending on the rental business and the type of vehicle. Again, full insurance will save you fully from the deposit and deductible in some cases, but just partially in others…

When should you Car rental in Morocco instead of taking public transportation?

The best months to rent a car and go on a road trip in Morocco, in our opinion, are April/May and September/October. It’s warm but not scorching, with fewer tourists and a broader assortment of automobiles.

Features of the Vehicle

Cars are left-hand drive in Morocco, although traffic is right-hand drive, as we are accustomed to. The traffic in the big cities is rather busy and chaotic, resembling Asia in some parts, particularly in Marrakech and Casablanca, with a lot of scooters, cabs, and carts… Outside of cities, however, the highways are free. The serpentine mountain roads are occasionally tough and narrow, but they are often pleasant and scenic.

Morocco’s drivers are far more cautious than those in Jordan and other Arab countries. Almost all of Morocco’s roads are of good quality, and the toll motorways are flawless!

Personal Experience on a Morocco Road Trip

So far, our Morocco road trip has been the most thrilling of all the nations we’ve visited, including Montenegro.

So, what’s the catch?

Morocco is a large country with the most diverse landscapes, landscapes, and nature we have ever seen! As I previously stated, Morocco is not only the beaches of Agadir, the medina of Fez, or Marrakech… it is a large country with the most varied landscapes, landscapes, and nature we have ever seen! The sights from the car window constantly changed throughout the road, giving the feeling that we were driving through a dozen nations rather than just one: mountains, hills, dense woods, parched riverbeds, canyons, lakes, waterfalls, deserts, steppes, ocean… If you don’t believe us, look at the evidence. See for yourself by reading our entire itinerary and all of our Moroccan articles. It’s more than doable, thanks to our extensive information and alternative routes in a separate article.

What exactly is the problem?

The serpentines and “looped” route in the mountains! With pauses in attractive sites and sights, you won’t be able to go more than 300-450 kilometers each day on serpentine roads. It’s pointless to return to the same location in Morocco for an overnight stay every time. However, the arrival and departure will very certainly be at the same airport, which is usually Casablanca. Taking a car in one city and renting it out in another is both costly and impracticable! Choosing different airports is thus pointless. In addition, the High Atlas mountain range runs across the center of Morocco, and most of the attractive spots are clustered around it!

Here are different Car rentals in Morocco

Prius (Toyota)	The Toyota Prius hybrid was first introduced in Japan in 1997 and first launched in the United States in 2001, with barely 15,000 units sold in the first year. By 2011, U.S. sales had surpassed 1 million, and global sales have surpassed 3.5 million. A gasoline engine and an electric motor with a battery pack are used in the Prius. The hybrid system saves fuel by running the electric motor at low speeds and turning on the gas engine only when necessary.
Clio Renault	Outside, it’s a little shorter than previously – though the 12mm reduction in length isn’t immediately noticeable – a little wider and lower, but with more space, load capacity, and overall volume on the inside.
