About Marrakech Menara Airport (RAK)
Marrakech Menara Airport (IATA: RAK) is the main international gateway to Marrakech and one of the busiest airports in Morocco. Located approximately 5 kilometres southwest of the city center, the airport handles millions of passengers each year arriving from across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. Whether you are visiting for the first time or returning to explore the vibrant souks of the Medina, securing a reliable airport transfer is the best way to start your Marrakech experience.
Unlike many major cities, ride-hailing apps such as Uber and Careem do not operate in Marrakech. This makes pre-booking a private airport taxi your safest and most convenient option. With Qimal, your English-speaking driver meets you in the arrivals hall with a name sign, assists with luggage, and takes you directly to your hotel, riad, or any destination in and around Marrakech — all at a fixed price agreed before you travel.

We Monitor Your Flight
After booking, you receive a WhatsApp confirmation with your driver's name and phone number. We track your flight in real-time, so if it is delayed or arrives early, your driver adjusts automatically at no extra charge.

Meet & Greet at Arrivals
Your driver waits inside the arrivals hall holding a sign with your name. They help with your luggage and drive you directly to your hotel, riad in the Medina, or any address in Marrakech.
Why Book Your Marrakech Airport Transfer in Advance?
Arriving at Marrakech Menara Airport without a pre-arranged transfer means negotiating with taxi drivers at the terminal, where prices are often inflated — especially for tourists arriving on late-night flights. Pre-booking with Qimal guarantees a fixed price with no surprises: no meter tampering, no extra charges for luggage, and no language barriers. Our drivers speak English, French, and Arabic.
We also provide free child car seats on request, making us a trusted choice for families. Whether you need a sedan from the airport to Gueliz, a van to a riad in the Medina, or a minibus for a group transfer to a hotel in the Palmeraie, Qimal has the right vehicle at the right price.
