Hi all,
I will be arriving in Marrakesh by air at about 10.30pm. Does anyone know if I can get a bus at that time of the night to Bab Doukkala , if not a bus how much would a taxi cost at that time of night ?
Thanks


You would take bus no. 19, it runs each every 30 min from 6.15AM until 21.30PM - http://www.alsa.ma/fr/marrakech. Otherwise you have to take a taxi. Taxi at night can cost about 200DH?

....... always important to know when you'll be in Morocco.?
So you know what might be in front of you arriving at Marrakechs' Menara Airport, this small Airport is over-run with passengers currently, it's too small for the numbers arriving causing at times long delays at passport control and baggage retrieval, so be prepared for crowds and queues.
By the time you arrive as khamlia mentioned above, the City-Bus Service Alsa will be finished.
You need to know there are two kinds of taxi service available to you, The Grand Taxi or the city Petite Taxi. Both available at the Airport, the Petite Taxi might suit you if you are just going to the city with up-to 3 passengers. Day time fares are about 50-60 Moroccan Dirhams (Dh. or Mad.), however at night this fare doubles, while the Grand Taxi fare costs double again. See this link on Moroccan Taxis.... http://reversehomesickness.com/africa/taxi-fares-morocco/ ...... the distant to the City isn't long, about 5 miles, I've walked it without luggage though.

And these links on the Alsa City-Bus Service....

Some of the Alsa routes are long reaching some mountain villages and the Agafa Desert west of the city. One bus goes to Chichaoua halfway to Eassouira.
If you walk out of the airport, you can flag down a petit taxi on the main road, that's much cheaper, but i'm not sure you want to do that late at night.
