Marrakech Group Transfers 2027: Vans and Minibuses

Updated 2026-11-14

Short answer

For a group in Marrakech you book vehicles, not seats: a van takes up to 7 guests, a Minibus 12 up to 12 and a Minibus 16 up to 16. Larger groups travel in several vehicles. Trips out of town have a fixed price per vehicle, such as 2,900 MAD to Essaouira by Minibus 16. Airport and in-town group rides are quoted on request.

Which vehicle for your group size

A van (Mercedes Vito or similar) seats up to 7 guests with 7 large suitcases. It suits a family, a small wedding party or a team of colleagues.

The Minibus 12 seats up to 12 and the Minibus 16 up to 16, both Mercedes Sprinter or similar. Each guest can bring a large suitcase, and the luggage space takes golf bags if you tell us when you book.

Choose by people and bags together. Eight guests with suitcases fit the Minibus 12; seven guests with suitcases and golf bags may need a minibus rather than the van. The office checks the numbers you send and confirms the vehicle in writing.

Groups too big for one minibus

Above 16 guests the group travels in several vehicles: two minibuses, or a minibus and a van, depending on the numbers and the luggage. Each vehicle has its own driver, and the vehicles can leave together or at different times.

Splitting a group can save money. If half the guests land at noon and half in the evening, two pickups at the right times beat one minibus waiting all afternoon.

The price is per vehicle and agreed in writing before the day, so you know the total before anyone travels.

Many guests on many flights

Wedding and conference guests rarely land together. Send a list with each guest's name, flight number, arrival time and hotel. The office groups guests whose flights land close together into one vehicle and plans separate pickups for the rest.

Each driver waits in arrivals with a name sign and follows the flight, so a delayed plane changes the pickup, not the plan. Pickups between 23:00–05:59 carry a 10% supplement.

Airport rides into Marrakech are quoted on request. Send the full list once and you get one written quote covering every pickup.

Weddings and private events

Many wedding venues sit outside the medina, in the Palmeraie, on the Ourika road or in the Agafay desert. A shuttle plan usually has three parts: guests to the venue, a first return for families and older guests, and a late return for everyone else.

Give the office the venue's map pin, the departure times and the name and phone number of the person on site who directs the drivers. A minibus to the Agafay camps costs 1,600 MAD per vehicle; shuttles inside Marrakech are quoted on request.

Plan the late return with care. A last run late at night falls in the 23:00–05:59 window and carries the 10% supplement, so it helps to fix the time in advance.

Conferences and incentive trips

For a conference, the usual pattern is airport arrivals spread over a day or two, daily runs between hotels and the venue, and a single departure day. Send the programme and the office builds the transfer timetable around it.

Incentive groups often add a day out: the Atlas valleys, the Agafay desert or the coast. Those trips have fixed prices per vehicle, so a group of 16 shares one price for the whole minibus.

Group prices for trips out of Marrakech

Out-of-town legs have a fixed price per vehicle, the same in both directions. To Essaouira: 1,900 MAD by van, 2,900 MAD by Minibus 16. To Agadir: 2,500 MAD by van, 3,300 MAD by Minibus 16. To Imlil in the Atlas: 1,050 MAD by van, 1,750 MAD by Minibus 16.

Because the price is for the vehicle, the cost per guest falls as the group fills it. Sixteen guests sharing one minibus to Essaouira split 2,900 MAD between them and travel door to door with their luggage on board.

The Minibus 12 price for each route comes with your quote. Airport rides and rides inside Marrakech are quoted on request for every vehicle size.

What to send when you book

The number of guests, adults and children, and the number of large bags, golf bags or other oversized items. The dates, times and addresses for each leg, with map pins for venues outside the city.

For riads in the medina, the gate or street your riad names: cars cannot reach most riad doors, and a group needs a meeting point everyone can find. Add the WhatsApp number of the group leader, so drivers and the office have one contact on the day.

Common questions

How much does a minibus cost in Marrakech?

Trips out of town have a fixed price per vehicle, for example 2,900 MAD to Essaouira or 1,600 MAD to the Agafay camps by Minibus 16. Airport and in-town minibus rides are quoted on request; send the numbers and times and the office replies in writing.

How many people fit in a minibus?

The Minibus 12 takes up to 12 guests and the Minibus 16 up to 16, each with a large suitcase per guest. A van takes up to 7.

How do you transport a group of 20 or more?

In several vehicles: two minibuses, or a minibus and a van. Each has its own driver, and the vehicles can travel together or at different times to match flights or event schedules.

Can you collect wedding guests arriving on different flights?

Yes. Send a list of names, flight numbers and hotels. The office groups guests whose flights land close together and plans separate pickups for the others, with a driver and name sign in arrivals each time.

Is the group price per person or per vehicle?

Per vehicle. A full minibus costs the same as a half-empty one, so the cost per guest falls as the group grows.

Can you run shuttles between a hotel and a wedding venue?

Yes. Give the venue's map pin, the departure and return times and a contact on site. Shuttles to venues out of town such as Agafay have a fixed price per vehicle; shuttles inside Marrakech are quoted on request.
