Getting There & Away

Air
The Tetouan airport opens for occasional charter flights from Paris and Brussels but has no
scheduled service. Persistent rumours that a full-fledged airport is coming may be inspired by
efforts to sell foreigners real estate.


Bus
Tetouan is now blessed with a modern bus station . There is an electronic timetable but bus
touts are still in place – just walk past them and read the departure times on your own. You can
get to any town in the north from here. There’s a left-luggage office (medium/large bag
Dh6/10).


CTM has its own station a five minute taxi ride away from the main bus station. It is a better
bet for quality reasons and for any long-haul destinations.


Fez Dh90, five hours


Rabat Dh100, four to five hours


Marrakesh Dh235, 11 hours


Local destinations include:


Martil Dh4, 25 minutes


M’Diq Dh8, one hour


Fnideq Dh10, 1¼ hours


Left luggage is Dh5 per kilogram per day.
