Marrakech Menara Airport terminal at dusk

Is there Uber in Marrakech?

Uber is back in Marrakech after seven years away. Here is how it works today, where the other apps stand, and what to do when you land.

By the Medina Transfers team · Updated 12 October 2026

Yes, Uber operates in Marrakech. The app relaunched in Marrakech and Casablanca on 27 November 2025, seven years after leaving Morocco. It works only with licensed transport vehicles and offers two categories, UberX and UberXL.

What changed in November 2025

Uber suspended its service in Morocco in 2018. Its return is built on a different model: the app connects riders with vehicles that already hold a transport licence. Uber announced scheduled rides, trips with several stops and cashless payment in the app.

Uber at Marrakech airport

The launch announcement says nothing about airport pick-ups, and availability can change with the hour. Check the app after you land. If no ride is offered, the options in front of the terminal are the taxi rank and, in the daytime, the airport bus line 19.

inDrive, Careem and other apps

Other ride apps are used in Marrakech, inDrive in particular. Travel sources that follow the subject report that inDrive is not legal under current Moroccan transport law, although the company is registered in the country. In practice, drivers may ask to meet you away from taxi ranks and tourist sites. That is worth knowing before you count on it with luggage.

How the options compare from the airport

Option	Booking	Price
Private transfer (Medina Transfers)	In advance, driver waits with your name	Fixed: €20 per vehicle for 1 to 7 passengers
Uber	In the app, once you have landed	Shown in the app before you confirm
Taxi rank	None	Agreed with the driver before you get in
Bus 19	None	30 dirhams per person, daytime and evening

If you are staying in a riad, remember that no car, whatever the app, enters the lanes of the Medina. The airport to Medina page explains where vehicles stop.
