Tangier Airport to Tangier Port transfer: the easiest way to get there
The best way to get from Tangier Airport to Tangier Port depends on what you are carrying and who you are travelling with, but for almost everyone arriving with luggage, family or after a long flight, a pre-booked private transfer is the answer. Haqqi Tours' Tangier Airport to Tangier Port airport transfer is met at arrivals, priced in advance and driven by someone who does this route every week.
This page covers everything travellers ask about the Tangier Airport to Tangier Port 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 Tangier Port is like, what to see there and where to stay, where you meet your driver at Tangier Airport, which vehicles we use and how the booking works.
Arriving at Tangier Airport (TNG)
Tangier Ibn Battouta Airport (TNG) is about 14 km south-west of the city centre, around 20 to 30 minutes from the medina, 70 km from Tetouan and about 125 km from Chefchaouen by road.
Airports feel bigger after a long flight, and Tangier Airport is no exception. That is why your confirmation carries the exact meeting point for this airport, the driver's name and a phone number: when you walk out of arrivals you know where to look. The driver has been following your flight, so a late landing or a slow bag belt changes nothing about your Tangier Airport to Tangier Port transfer.
Searches for "TNG to Tangier Port" or "TNG airport transfer" land here for a reason: TNG is the airport code for Tangier Airport, and this is the private-car service that connects it with Tangier Port.
Tangier Airport to Tangier Port at a glance
Service: private transfer, your own vehicle from Tangier Airport to Tangier Port, door to door. Vehicles: Sedan (1–3 passengers), Minivan (1–7 passengers) and Sprinter (8–13 passengers) - Mercedes, Volkswagen, Ford Transit and Peugeot Traveller models, air-conditioned, with room for luggage. Price: fixed for the whole vehicle and agreed on WhatsApp before you travel, tolls and waiting included, nothing to pay the driver on the day. Meeting: at Tangier Airport, at the point named in your confirmation, with flight tracking so a delay moves the pickup. Booking: the form on this page or a WhatsApp message; confirmation in writing within minutes, in Arabic or English.
Taxi or private transfer from Tangier Airport to Tangier Port?
An airport taxi from Tangier Airport to Tangier Port 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 Tangier Airport to Tangier Port per person - and by far the easiest. Public transport to Tangier Port 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 Tangier Port, 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 Tangier Airport to Tangier Port: is there a bus, train or metro?
Public transport from Tangier Airport runs mainly into Tangier itself: a city bus and taxis run from the terminal to the centre, which suits a light bag and a hotel near the Grand Socco; the Al Boraq train from Tangier Ville reaches Rabat in about 1 hour 20 minutes and Casablanca in about 2 hours 10 minutes. A private car is easier for the medina, the Corniche, Cap Spartel, Tangier Med, Tetouan and Chefchaouen. Reaching Tangier Port from there means a further connection with your luggage, which is where a door-to-door car saves the most time and effort.
So the honest comparison for Tangier Port is this: public transport is the cheapest option for one person with a cabin bag and time to spare, and a private Tangier Airport to Tangier Port transfer is the better one for everybody else - two or more travellers, families, older relatives, anyone landing late, anyone with proper luggage. The price is per vehicle, not per person, which is why a family of four often pays less than it would on four bus or train tickets plus the taxi at the end.
About Tangier Port

Tangier Port, also called Tanger Ville, is the harbour at the foot of the medina, where passenger ferries arrive from southern Spain and cruise ships call. The old city walls rise directly above the quay, and the Kasbah, the Grand Socco and the centre of town are within a short walk or ride. The terminal has a clean modern area for passengers, with taxis and private cars outside. It is the closest port to the medina and the central hotels, which makes it a practical arrival point for visitors on a day trip or a short stay.
Things to do in Tangier Port
Once you have checked in, Tangier Port is worth exploring: Ferries from southern Spain, Cruise calls, Medina walls above the quay and Close to the centre. Your driver can point some of them out on the way in, and the WhatsApp desk can arrange a car for a day out if you want to see more.
Tangier itself is within reach for a day: the American Legation Museum, the Café Hafa terraces and Achakar beach - the same WhatsApp desk arranges the car there and back.

Meeting your driver at Tangier Airport
Every airport is laid out differently, and Tangier Airport is no exception: some airports have a fixed meeting point inside the terminal, some have a specific exit where drivers may wait, and at others the driver stands just beyond customs with a sign. Because of that we do not print one rule here. When we confirm your Tangier Airport to Tangier Port transfer on WhatsApp, we tell you exactly where your driver will be, with the driver's name and a phone number you can message the moment you land.
Waiting time after landing is included, and if you are delayed at baggage or passport control a quick WhatsApp message keeps everyone informed. On the way back, the driver collects you from the hotel at an agreed time with enough margin for your flight from Tangier Airport.
Our vehicles for the Tangier Port transfer
For this route we offer Sedan (1–3 passengers), Minivan (1–7 passengers) and Sprinter (8–13 passengers). The vans are Mercedes, Volkswagen, Ford Transit and Peugeot Traveller models, all recent, air-conditioned and cleaned between journeys, with proper luggage space rather than a crowded boot. Choose the vehicle by how many of you are travelling and how much luggage you bring; the desk will tell you if a larger vehicle would be more comfortable.
Families get child seats on request, and groups with a lot of luggage are matched to a vehicle with room to spare. Tell us on WhatsApp what you are bringing and we take care of the rest.
The vehicle is chosen before the confirmation, not at the kerb, so there is no surprise at the door of Tangier Airport: what we agreed on WhatsApp is what is waiting, and if your luggage looks like it needs a bigger vehicle we say so before you pay.

Older travellers book it for the door-to-door help with the bags, and couples for a calm start to the trip instead of a taxi queue.
