Getting There
-
Car
If you are in the Sahara Desert and are traveling by car, head towards Marrakech. Follow the signs that direct you to 'Marrakech' or 'Marrakesh'. The drive will take approximately 7-8 hours depending on your exact starting point in the desert. Once you arrive in Marrakech, navigate to the Sidi Youssef Ben Ali district. The address is 191 Derb El Makina, which is near the city center. Parking options are available, but be prepared to pay for parking fees, which can vary.
-
Public Transportation (Bus)
From any location in the Sahara Desert, find the nearest bus station offering service to Marrakech. Buses like Supratours and CTM operate routes that connect various towns in the Sahara to Marrakech. Purchase your bus ticket to Marrakech, which usually costs between 100-200 MAD (Moroccan Dirham). The journey takes around 8-9 hours. Once you arrive at the bus station in Marrakech, you can either take a taxi or walk to 191 Derb El Makina, located in the Sidi Youssef Ben Ali area.
-
Taxi
For a more direct route, consider taking a taxi from your location in the Sahara. Ensure you negotiate the fare beforehand, as prices can vary widely. The taxi ride to Marrakech will typically cost around 1,500-2,500 MAD, depending on your starting point. This option offers a more comfortable journey, but it is also the most expensive.
-
Shared Taxi (Grand Taxi)
A shared taxi, or 'Grand Taxi', is a common mode of transport in Morocco. You can find these taxis at designated taxi stands in the Sahara Desert. They usually depart when full, so be prepared to share the ride with other travelers. The cost is generally cheaper than a private taxi, around 100-150 MAD per person, but the travel time may vary depending on passenger pick-ups and drop-offs. Inform the driver you want to go to Marrakech, and they will drop you off as close as possible to the city center. From there, you can take a short taxi ride to 191 Derb El Makina.
