Why rent a car in Tanger?

Renting a car in Tanger is still the simplest way to travel at your own pace: public transport covers the distances between the city centre, the airport and the surrounding sights poorly. With a vehicle you leave when you want and stop where you want.

On Loccor, every agency in Tanger is approved before going live: contact details, fleet and terms are checked.

Driving in Morocco from Tanger

Morocco drives on the right. Limits are 120 km/h on motorways, 100 km/h outside built-up areas and 60 km/h in town, with frequent checks and signposted fixed cameras. Motorways are tolled: take a ticket on entry and pay on exit, in cash or by card.

Always keep some cash on you: petrol stations take cards on the main routes, less reliably in rural areas. Diesel and unleaded are available everywhere; LPG is rare. On secondary roads the real attention goes not to other cars but to mopeds, carts and animals, especially at dusk.

Parking in Tanger

The handiest areas to pick up or drop off a car in Tanger are Malabata, Iberia, Marchan, Corniche. Inside the medinas, driving is difficult or simply not allowed: the local habit is to park on the edge and continue on foot.

Street parking is usually watched by an attendant, paid a few dirhams when you leave. Hotels and shopping centres have gated car parks, safer for an overnight stay.

Rental requirements in Tanger

Each agency in Tanger sets its own terms, but Moroccan practice is consistent: minimum age 21, a driving licence held for at least two years, an ID card or passport. Some premium categories are reserved for drivers over 25.

A national licence is enough if it uses the Latin alphabet. Otherwise an international permit is required. Bring an identity document too: the agency asks for a security deposit at the counter, returned when you bring the car back. The amount is shown on each vehicle page, and Loccor never collects it — the form of the deposit is set by the agency.

The deposit amount, the mileage policy and any minimum rental period are shown on each vehicle page before you book. The deposit is taken by the agency itself: Loccor never handles it.

Can the car be returned in a city other than Tanger?

Should you book ahead in Tanger?

In high season, during school holidays and religious festivals, fleets empty quickly and prices rise. Booking one or two weeks ahead secures both the car and the rate. Off-season, a few days is usually enough.
