Rabat, Morocco’s capital, is a must-visit destination if you’re planning a trip to the country. It’s a cultural city deep-rooted in history and there are multiple monuments and historic places to explore. To make your arrival smoother, you can explore your transportation options from Rabat Airport to the city centre beforehand and choose the one that best matches your needs.
The most convenient option to get from Rabat Airport to the city centre and reach your accommodation quickly and comfortably is by taking an airport taxi or pre-booking a private airport transfer. The ride by taxi takes only 20 minutes in light traffic and the average fare is between €14 (MAD 150) and €18 (MAD 200) for up to 6 passengers, depending on the time of day; local cabs tend to charge per person, so keep this in mind.
A more budget-friendly, but slower, alternative is to take the bus. Alsa City Bus operates route AE, which connects Rabat Airport to Gare Rabat Ville near the city centre in about 40 minutes. It’s a great value-for-money option with a single ticket at €2.30 (MAD 25) per traveller but you may need additional transportation to reach your final destination, so keep that in mind if you’re in a hurry.
