Getting around northern Morocco is easy when you decide to rent a car in Tangier, an excellent starting point to explore this part of the country. Here we tell you how to get your vehicle the easy way.
Why rent a car in Tangier?
Renting a car in Tangier has many advantages, especially if you want to expand your horizons beyond the city centre.
- Flexibility. The first and perhaps most obvious is the flexibility of having your own means of transportation and not being dependent on transport schedules or availability. Public transport doesn't always cover all the key points of interest, and relying on taxis can end up being very expensive or highly inconvenient, especially if you are travelling in a group or with luggage. What's more, with a car you can organise your own itinerary. Leave early, stop at the viewpoints or take a detour to a remote small town. You're in control!
- Get to hard-to-reach places. Another important reason to rent a car in Tangier is that you can get to places that are not in the traditional guidebooks and are not on the usual transport routes. For example, hidden beaches, mountain roads or small villages with poor connections.
- Convenience. When you have a car, there is no need to wait around for transfers, buy tickets or search for information on connections. You simply get in and travel the world. And renting with OK Mobility is even more convenient, because we place all the facilities at your disposal to make your experience a pleasant one.
We have offices in different parts of Morocco, and there is one at Tangier airport itself. This means that you can pick up the car as soon as you get off the plane and return it at the same place if your return flight is also from here. Or if you prefer, you can explore the country and return it in Marrakech or Casablanca.
How to rent a car to explore Tangier and beyond
Renting a car in Tangier with OK Mobility is quite simple. The first step to avoid complications on the day you arrive is to make a reservation. You can do this online from home before you travel. Just indicate the pick-up and drop-off dates, the location that suits you best, for example, the airport, and the type of vehicle you need. At the same time, you can add extras like extended coverage or a second driver. The earlier you book, the better the price and model availability.
The second step takes place once you arrive, and that is to pick up the car. You will need to present your valid driving licence, identity card or passport and a credit card in the name of the main driver to make the deposit. The staff will review the condition of the vehicle and make a record of any prior marks or scratches. We recommend you check over everything before you leave to avoid any future misunderstandings. In just a few minutes, you will be on the road to your accommodation.
During the time you have rented for, you can move freely around the country and make as many stops as you like. You can travel the north of the country and explore the coast or visit Casablanca or Marrakech.
At the end of the contract, it's time to return the car. This process is just as straightforward: you return the car at the agreed location, everything is checked just as before and, if everything is in order, the deposit retained on the card is released. This usually only takes a few minutes, but to be on the safe side in case there is a queue, come well in advance of the time your flight departs.
Practical tips when renting a car in Tangier
Although renting a car in Tangier is a simple process, some aspects should not be overlooked. Always look over the contract before signing it, both the data and the conditions, and pay attention to the amount of fuel in the car on pick-up and drop-off. And if you plan to drive in mountainous areas or less travelled roads, make sure to choose a suitable vehicle that is comfortable to drive. Consider the extra insurance coverage too, as it can save you hassle if there is an unforeseen event.
By renting a car in Morocco with OK Mobility, discovering the north of the country with total freedom is easier than ever. With OK Mobility, you can book online, pick up your car directly at the airport, and return it at different locations across the country. A practical, safe, and flexible option to enjoy your journey with only one concern: choosing your next stop.
