Meknes Train Station to Meknes Medina transfer: the easiest way to get there

Getting from Meknes Train Station to Meknes Medina should be the easy part of the journey. With a private transfer it is: you tell us your flight number and your hotel, we confirm the price of the Meknes Train Station to Meknes Medina transfer on WhatsApp, and on the day a driver meets you at the arrivals hall and takes you straight to the door. No taxi rank, no ticket machines, no changing between buses with suitcases.

This page covers everything travellers ask about the Meknes Train Station to Meknes Medina route: how far it is and how long it takes, whether an airport taxi, public transport or a private transfer is the better choice, what Meknes Medina in Meknes is like, where to stay and eat, when to travel, where you meet your driver at Meknes Train Station, which vehicles we use and how the booking works.

Arriving at Meknes Train Station

Meknes Train Station is the city's main station for Al Atlas and regional trains between Casablanca, Rabat, Fes and Oujda, in the modern town about 3 km from the old medina and around 33 km from Volubilis.

A little knowledge of Meknes Train Station makes the arrival calmer. Note which terminal or hall your flight uses, keep your phone charged for the WhatsApp thread, and expect the driver to be exactly where the confirmation said - by the arrivals exit with a name board, or at the airport's designated meeting point. From there it is a short walk to the car and the Meknes Train Station to Meknes Medina drive begins.

Taxi or private transfer from Meknes Train Station to Meknes Medina?

An airport taxi from Meknes Train Station to Meknes Medina means finding the official rank, waiting your turn, and paying whatever the meter shows at the end - more at night, more in traffic, and sometimes more if the driver takes the long way. A private transfer from Haqqi Tours replaces all of that with one agreed price for the whole car, confirmed in writing on WhatsApp before you fly.

For one traveller with a small bag, a taxi or public transport can be a fair choice. For two or more people, a family with children, or anyone with real luggage, a private transfer is normally the cheapest way to get from Meknes Train Station to Meknes Medina per person - and by far the easiest. Public transport to Meknes Medina involves changes, tickets and stairs; a private car goes to the hotel door.

There is also the question of trust. Our drivers know the hotels of Meknes Medina, work on a fixed price, and never take a detour or add a "special fare" at the end. Your booking is confirmed by a real person on a WhatsApp desk that works in Arabic and English, and that same desk is reachable throughout your trip.

Public transport from Meknes Train Station to Meknes Medina: is there a bus, train or metro?

Meknes has no commercial airport; the nearest is Fes-Saiss Airport about 75 km away and Casablanca and Rabat airports are further; trains on the Al Atlas lines connect the city with Fes, Rabat and Casablanca in comfort, while a private car is the practical choice for Volubilis, Moulay Idriss, Ifrane and the airport.

If you are weighing the Meknes Train Station to Meknes Medina options, think about the last kilometre. Trains and buses stop at stations; hotels are somewhere else. With a private transfer the driver takes the route that ends at your door in Meknes, helps with the bags, and the price agreed on WhatsApp does not change if the trains are on strike or the road is slow.

About Meknes Medina

The old medina of Meknes lies about 3 km from Meknes Train Station, around the Bab Mansour gate and Place el-Hedim. The medina of Meknes is the heart of the former imperial capital built by Sultan Moulay Ismail, a UNESCO World Heritage site of palaces, mosques and long ochre walls. Place el-Hedim is the lively main square, facing the grand Bab Mansour gate, and the covered souks, the Dar Jamai museum and the mausoleum of Moulay Ismail lie nearby. It is calmer than Fes, with fewer touts and more room to walk, and several riads and guesthouses are set inside the old walls.

Staying near Meknes Medina puts you within easy reach of Road to Volubilis, Edge of the Zerhoun hills, Old medina and Place el-Hedim and Bab Mansour - each a different side of Meknes, and each a short drive once your bags are at the hotel.
