Morocco

Navigate the medina like you were born there

Curated by travelers, verified by locals

Heads up

Morocco is a fascinating mix of ancient traditions and modern convenience. In cities like Casablanca, Marrakech, and Rabat, ride-hailing and food delivery apps work well. Inside the old medinas, however, streets are too narrow for cars, so you will be navigating on foot. French is widely spoken alongside Arabic and Darija, and most apps support both French and English. Cash (Moroccan dirham) is still essential at souks and smaller shops, though card payments are increasingly accepted at hotels, modern restaurants, and larger stores. Tipping is customary and expected in most service situations.

InDrive

Essential

A negotiate-your-fare ride-hailing app that has gained strong traction in Moroccan cities. You set your price, and drivers accept or counter-offer. Available in Casablanca, Marrakech, Rabat, Tangier, and Fez.

Pro tip: Negotiate firmly but fairly. Offering around 20% below what a petit taxi would charge usually gets a quick accept, especially outside peak hours.

Careem

Essential

Available in major Moroccan cities, Careem provides a reliable alternative to local taxis with upfront pricing and tracked rides. Particularly useful for airport transfers and late-night travel.

Pro tip: Pre-book your airport pickup in the app before landing. Drivers at Marrakech Menara Airport can get crowded, and having a confirmed Careem ride avoids the taxi queue hassle.

Glovo

Essential

The leading delivery app in Morocco, handling everything from restaurant meals to grocery runs and pharmacy items. Strong coverage in Casablanca, Marrakech, Rabat, and Tangier.

Pro tip: Glovo delivers more than food. Use it to grab bottled water, snacks, or pharmacy essentials delivered straight to your riad without braving the midday heat.

Jumia Food

Nice to have

A food delivery platform with a wide selection of local Moroccan and international restaurants. Good for discovering tagine spots, pastilla specialists, and other local cuisine you might not find by walking around.

Orange Money

Nice to have

A mobile money service from Orange, one of Morocco's major telecom providers. Lets you send money, pay bills, and handle small transactions without a local bank account. Increasingly accepted at shops and for online services.

Pro tip: Pick up an Orange SIM card and ask to activate Orange Money at the same time. Having a local mobile wallet helps when vendors do not accept foreign cards.
