Car Rental near Jemaa el-Fna and the Medina of Marrakech: Delivered at Your Riad’s Gate

In short: Cars cannot drive inside the Medina of Marrakech, so Getaround Rent Car delivers your rental car free of charge at the gate nearest to your riad: Bab Doukkala, Bab Nkob, the Koutoubia car parks for Jemaa el-Fna, Bab Agnaou or Bab el-Khemis, at the time you choose, 7 days a week and 24 hours a day. Our agent brings the car, the contract and the keys; most riads are five to ten minutes on foot from a gate and a guarded car park. Prices are €35 per day for a Dacia Logan or Sandero, €40 for a Renault Clio 5, Peugeot 208 or Opel Corsa, and €45 for the automatic Dacia Duster, with comprehensive insurance (8,000 MAD excess), 24/7 assistance, 200 km per day, a free second driver and a free baby seat on request. The refundable deposit is €800 and the minimum age 21. Many riad guests take the car only on the day they leave the city, which saves parking nights.

Renting a car when you stay in the Medina works differently from a hotel in Gueliz: the car stays outside the walls, and we bring it to the gate closest to your riad. Here is how delivery near Jemaa el-Fna works, where the guarded car parks are, and when it makes sense to take the car.

Delivery at the Medina gates

Tell us the name of your riad or the nearest gate. Our agent meets you there with the car and the contract, at any hour, 7 days a week, free of charge. The usual meeting points:

  • Jemaa el-Fna, the souks, the Koutoubia: guarded car parks at Place Foucauld and behind the Koutoubia gardens, and the underground car park at Arset El Bilk on Avenue Mohammed V, 2 to 5 minutes on foot from the square.
  • Riads in the north of the Medina (Bab Doukkala, Dar el Bacha, Mouassine): Bab Doukkala car park.
  • Kasbah, Saadian tombs, Bahia and Badi palaces: Bab Agnaou and the car parks around Place des Ferblantiers.
  • North-east, Bab el-Khemis: the gate car park.

Your riad will tell you which gate it uses for luggage; it is the one to give us. More on the car parks and their prices in where to park a rental car in Marrakech.

When to take the car if you stay in the Medina

Inside the walls everything is on foot, and taxis are cheap for the gardens and Gueliz. The car earns its price the day you leave the city: Ourika, Imlil, the Agafay desert, Ouzoud, Essaouira, Ouarzazate. Many of our customers book the car from day three or four and have it delivered at the gate that morning, rather than paying parking nights for a car they do not use. If you prefer to have it from arrival, take it at Menara Airport and park it at the gate: the daily rate is the same.

Driving around the Medina

  • The ring boulevard around the walls is open to cars; the gates are reached from it. Inside, only a few access roads exist and they are for residents and deliveries.
  • Expect scooters, carts and pedestrians near the gates; drive slowly and let the attendants guide you into the car parks.
  • Leave the car in a guarded car park, never on an unattended street at night.
