Administrative capital

Private transport in Rabat

Rabat is where we are based, so it is the city we know best and the one where we can respond fastest. It is also a city many visitors reach by road rather than by air: Rabat-Salé is a small airport with limited routes, and a large share of arrivals actually land at Casablanca and drive up.

Arriving in Rabat

Rabat-Salé sits about 10 km from the centre, roughly twenty minutes. If you are flying into Mohammed V in Casablanca instead, the transfer up to Rabat takes about an hour and we run it constantly. We also meet the Al Boraq high-speed trains at Rabat-Agdal and Rabat-Ville.

What we do here

As the administrative capital, Rabat runs on institutional traffic: embassies, ministries, international organisations and the companies that work with them. A lot of our work here is cars held at disposal by the day, delegation transport, and contracted staff shuttles. It is also an underrated city to visit, with the Kasbah of the Udayas, Chellah and the Hassan Tower all within an afternoon.

Questions

Frequently asked questions about Rabat

What travellers ask us most often before arriving in Rabat.

Should I fly into Rabat-Salé or Casablanca?

Whichever suits your schedule. Rabat-Salé is far closer, about twenty minutes, but has few international routes. Mohammed V in Casablanca has many more flights and is about an hour away by road. We cover both, and the Casablanca run is one of our most frequent jobs.

Do you meet trains as well as flights?

Yes. We meet the Al Boraq high-speed service and ordinary ONCF trains at Rabat-Agdal and Rabat-Ville, which is useful if you are continuing somewhere the railway does not reach.

Can you work with embassies and international organisations?

We already do. Delegation transport, airport runs for visiting staff and vehicles held at disposal by the day are routine for us in Rabat, and we can provide licensing and insurance documentation for compliance files.

Are you actually based in Rabat?

Yes, our office is on Avenue d'Égypte. It is the only office we have: everywhere else in Morocco we serve with drivers and vehicles rather than a branch.

The bus was clean, comfortable and well-maintained, which made our long travel days much more pleasant. The drivers were always on time, extremely professional and very courteous. Highly recommended for anyone planning to travel across Morocco.

Unmatched luxury and comfort with Marassa Sky Tours. From the moment I booked, their dedication to high-quality, personalised service was evident. Whether it is the airport shuttle, school transport or car rentals, Marassa Sky Tours stands out with a modern, high-end fleet that is both comfortable and stylish. I was especially amazed by their professional and courteous drivers.
