Private transfer: calm door-to-door arrival

Airport taxi rank vs. private transfer
The official grand taxi rank is positioned directly outside the passenger terminal. Drivers typically quote around 150 MAD by day and an estimated 200 MAD by night into Nador. However, taxis take cash dirhams only and vehicles have varying luggage space. A pre-booked private transfer provides a confirmed price online, modern vehicles with air conditioning, and plenty of space for families and suitcases.
