Car Rental in Marrakech: Frequently Asked Questions

Age, driving license, deposit, insurance, airport delivery: the answers to the questions our customers ask most often before renting a car in Marrakech.

What do I need to rent a car in Marrakech?

The main driver must be at least 21 years old and have held a valid driving license for at least 2 years. At pick-up you show your original driving license, your passport (or Moroccan national ID card) and a credit card for the security deposit.

Can you deliver the car to Marrakech Menara Airport?

Yes. We hand over and collect cars at Marrakech Menara Airport (RAK), at your hotel or riad, at the train station or at our agency. Just give us your flight number or address when you book so we can agree on the meeting point.

How much is the security deposit?

A security deposit is blocked on your credit card (Visa or MasterCard) when you collect the car and released when you return it in the same condition. The amount depends on the car category, from €1,000 to €3,000. We tell you the exact amount for your car before you book.

Is insurance included in the price?

Yes. All our cars are insured (third-party liability, theft, fire, glass breakage and personal accident insurance). Tyres are not covered, and an excess remains payable by the driver in case of damage. You can reduce your excess with one of our optional protection plans, shown on each car page.

Is mileage unlimited?

Yes, every rental includes unlimited mileage, so you can drive from Marrakech to Essaouira, the Atlas mountains or the Sahara without counting kilometres.

Can I add a second driver?

Yes, the second driver is free. They must meet the same conditions as the main driver and show their documents when you collect the car. Only drivers listed on the rental contract may drive.

What is the fuel policy?

Same-to-same: the car is delivered with a certain fuel level and must be returned with the same level. Fuel is paid by the customer and unused fuel is not refunded.

How can I pay?

You can pay in cash (euros or Moroccan dirhams), by credit card (a 4% card fee applies), by secure online payment or by bank transfer. Our rates include unlimited mileage, maintenance and delivery/collection of the car.

Do you have automatic cars?

Yes, we have automatic cars such as the Renault Clio 5 automatic, as well as automatic SUVs. Automatics are in high demand in Marrakech, especially at Easter, in summer and over Christmas, so book early.

Can I drive to the desert, Essaouira or the Atlas mountains?

Yes. With unlimited mileage you are free to explore Morocco. Tell us your itinerary when you book: for the Tizi n'Tichka pass or the road to Merzouga we usually recommend an SUV such as the Dacia Duster for comfort and ground clearance.

What happens if I have an accident or a breakdown?

Call or WhatsApp us immediately: roadside assistance is available 24/7. In case of an accident, with or without another vehicle involved, you must obtain a police (or gendarmerie) report and give it to us within 24 hours so the insurance can cover the damage.

How do I book a car?

Choose your car on our website, enter your dates and send the booking form — or simply message us on WhatsApp with your dates, pick-up place and the car you want. We confirm availability and the final price before you travel.
