The plane taxis, a ribbon of tarmac under the Atlas foothills, and your driver is already waiting with a name card. In Marrakech the airport’s glass and concrete give way quickly to ochre walls, narrow medina alleys and the palm-swept courtyards of riads; a private transfer is the simplest way to move between those worlds without the noise or uncertainty of public transport.

Confirm flight and pickup details
Send your flight number and expected arrival time; drivers monitor flights and will adjust for delays but need your arrival data to coordinate meeting points.
Have your riad address in Arabic and Latin script
Some medina entrances are narrow and drivers may need exact directions or a nearby landmark to find the correct drop-off point.
Pack a light layer for evening
Even short drives can feel cooler after sunset; bring a light jacket if you’ll arrive late in the day.
Plan for traffic windows
Allow extra time during peak hours (morning and early evening) when city gates and main roads can slow a 15–20 minute transfer to 30+ minutes.
Printed or digital riad/hotel address
Drivers may need a clear address or nearby landmark to navigate medina entrances.
Phone with local SIM or roaming
Allows the driver to call on arrival and you to receive messages about pickup.
Light jacket or shawl
Even short transfers can feel cooler after sunset—useful in fall and winter evenings.
