   Airport Transfers

Private Transfer: 

We can arrange a private transfer for our guests, you will be met at Marrakech Menara Airport by your driver who will then take you straight to Kasbah Tamadot in the mountain village at Asni. This is by far the less stressful option as the buses can be confusing and long winded and the taxi drivers at the airport will not be the easiest with which to communicate and negotiate.

Rental Car: 

The usual rental car providers operate from Marrakech Menara Airport, the drive is quite straightforward and will take about 1 hours and 40 minutes!

Public Transport: 

It is possible to get to the village of Asni by bus or grand taxi from Marrakech city centre, however this can be long winded and quite stressful.

Taxi:

Again, it is possible to get a 'Grand Taxi' from the airport (Petit Taxi are only available for use in Marrakech), but please negotiate  your price before getting in.
