Van Rental in Morocco

Visit Morocco and enjoy the highlights of this fascinating country in North Africa. Separated from mainland Europe by the Strait of Gibraltar and just 20 miles from Southern Spain, this traditional Islamic country is full of vibrant markets, aromatic food, medieval cities and whitewashed towns, as well as dramatic mountain ranges and desert. You can collect your van on arrival in Morocco’s northern city of Tangier, at the ferry port or Tangier Ibn Battouta Airport (TNG) and begin your Moroccan adventure by car.

Tangier has a long and colourful history, and as you walk around you will see the contrast of the bustling Kasbah in the medieval walled Old City (Medina) and the grand new modern structures. Take a drive in your van hire east of Tangier to Ceuta, a Spanish enclave, before heading out to the towns and beach resorts dotted along the 500 miles or so of Mediterranean coastline, including pretty Chefchaouen and through the Rif Mountain region, until you reach the holiday town of Saïdia.

On the North Atlantic coast to the west of Morocco you will find the capital Rabat, an elegant city with wide boulevards and cafes, whilst driving further south will bring you to the dynamic city of Casablanca, before hitting a string of laid back coastal resorts along the South Atlantic coast and the historic coastal city of Essaouira. Continue south to the large city of Agadir, an arrival point for many tourists attracted to the beach resorts of the region, and due to its proximity to the Sahara Desert and the Anti Atlas Mountains. You can also pick up your van hire at Agadir-Al Massira Airport (AGA).

In the High Atlas region you will find Northern Africa’s greatest mountain range, a place popular with trekkers and hikers and inhabited by Morocco’s Berber population, as well as the grand city of Marrakesh. You can fly straight into Marrakech-Menara Airport (RAK) and soon find yourself immersed in a large bustling city, with the ancient walled Medina at its heart. The main square Djemaa el Fna lies at the centre of the Medina and is always busy with performers, tourists and snake charmers, whilst the Souks to the north are a place where once can buy all kinds of spices, food and leather goods.

As you travel north through the mountainous Middle Atlas region, you will find the former capital Fez, a medieval city that is home to the world’s oldest university and an ancient and superbly preserved walled old city, the medina Fes el-Bali. The centre of Fez is car-free, but you will find a car useful to get out and about in the region, and to the more laid-back city of Meknes to the north of Fez. You may also plan to travel east into Saharan Morocco, the hot and dry desert that sits between Morocco and neighbouring Algeria or to the Western Sahara region to the south, formerly a Spanish colony but now a disputed region that includes the city of Laayoune and Tarfaya, a small coastal town on the border. Morocco is a truly amazing country to visit, so make sure you experience the wonderful diversity of the landscapes and its vibrant culture when you hire one of our vans in Morocco.
