Just 9 kilometres (5.6 miles) from downtown Marrakech, Menara Airport<\/strong> is well-connected. Be sure to pick up some dirham, the local currency, at the airport if you haven’t done so already. Many businesses in Marrakech will only accept cash.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/i><\/div>Public transport<\/h2><\/div><\/div>

Bus number 19 departs every half-hour from 6:30 am to 11:30 pm. A single trip costs 30 DH, or you can save by buying a return for 50 DH. The bus will take you to Jemaa el Fna, the city’s central square.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Renting a car can be a good idea if you plan to visit the desert, the Atlas Mountains<\/strong> or other parts of Morocco. To get around Marrakech it is advisable to walk or take public transport to avoid areas with heavy traffic, but it is easier to drive outside the city, and renting a four-wheel drive vehicle is best if you are planning a desert getaway.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
