Meknès Getting there & around

Getting there & away

The CTM bus station (035 522585; Ave des FAR) is about 300m east of the junction with Ave Mohammed V. The main bus station lies just outside Bab el-Khemis, west of the medina. CTM departures include the following: Casablanca (US$8, four hours, six daily) via Rabat (US$5, 2½ hours, six daily), Marrakesh (US$15, eight hours, daily) and Tangier (US$9, five hours, three daily).

The principal grand-taxi rank is a dirt lot next to the bus station at Bab el-Khemis. There are regular departures to Fès (US$2, one hour) and Rabat (US$4.50, 90 minutes). Grands taxis for Moulay Idriss (US$1.20, 20 minutes) leave from opposite the Institut Français – this is also the place to organise round trips to Volubilis.
