Take a cab from Marrakech airport to your Riad
One of the most comfortable solutions is to take a cab directly from Marrakech airport. You'll be sure to arrive at your Riad in about twenty minutes. 

Taking a cab in Marrakech

Taking a cab on arrival can be one of your first adventures in Morocco. Although it's compulsory to turn on the meter, and prices are clearly displayed in the cab, cabs are often resistant to the idea. Generally speaking, XXXX MAD is an acceptable fare to get you to Dar Chibania
Don't panic! Marrakech is a hospitable city where talking is everything. You can ask your driver specifically to start the meter, or negotiate the fare before you get into your cab.
Another solution is to book a green cab (which isn't green) by calling 05 24 40 94 94. It's much more likely to activate the meter, although there are exceptions.
You can also contact us before you leave so that we can book you a cab you can trust when you arrive at Marrakech airport.

Contact us to book a private chauffeur 

The most common solution for discerning tourists is to hire a private chauffeur booked through your Riad. The price is negotiated and known in advance, and he'll be waiting for you after you've collected your luggage.
Not as cheap as the bus, but always more reassuring on a first stay in Marrakech when you don't have the negotiating instincts.
Let us know before you arrive at Marrakech airport if you'd like us to book a private driver for your arrival in Morocco, and we'll be happy to reserve one for you.
