Why choose car rental at Rabat-Salé airport

Rabat-Salé airport serves Morocco's capital and the neighbouring city of Salé. Picking up your car right at the airport has real advantages:

No hunting for a taxi or a ride into the city centre.
Independence for getting between meetings, cultural visits and appointments.
Freedom of movement if you only have a few days and want to make the most of them.

With a car, it is easy to combine Rabat's medina, the modern districts, the Bou Regreg riverside and Salé in one trip, without depending on public transport timetables. It suits tourists, Moroccans living abroad visiting family, business travellers and residents who need a vehicle for a while.

Which vehicle to choose in Rabat-Salé

The right category depends on the kind of trip you have planned.

Category	Best for	Advantages
City car / Economy	City driving, solo travellers or couples	Easy to park
Saloon	Business trips, comfort over medium distances	Luggage space, comfortable drive
SUV	Families, groups, trips outside the city	Roominess
MPV / Minivan	Large groups, extended families	More seats
Van	House moves, work equipment	Large load volume

A city car is handy if you mostly move between the airport, the medina and the central districts. For families or groups travelling between Rabat, Salé and other Moroccan cities, a saloon, an SUV or a minivan offers more comfort. RentalMe also lists motorbikes and vans offered by agencies.

Budget: rental prices generally range from 100 DH to 700 DH per day, depending on the vehicle category, the season and the agency. The exact price is the one shown in the agency's offer when you book.
