Why Book a Private Transfer from Tangier to Meknes?
On most Moroccan routes we tell you to take the train. This is the one where the car is genuinely quicker — here's why.
The Train Needs a Change
There is no direct service. You change at Sidi Kacem or Kénitra and the whole thing runs to about 4h30 — against 2h50 in the car, door to door.
Fixed Price from 199€
Your Tangier to Meknes price is confirmed before you book. From 199€ per vehicle — not per person, tolls and fuel included. Six people split it to about 33€ each.
Volubilis at the End
The Roman site is 30 km north of Meknes and no bus goes there. Add it for a supplement and you arrive having already walked the mosaics.
Asilah, Larache & Volubilis
The route passes whitewashed Asilah and the Roman ruins of Lixus, and Volubilis sits near the end. Add one and the drive becomes part of the trip rather than a gap in it.

How to Get from Tangier to Meknes — Distance & Route
The distance from Tangier to Meknes is about 245 km, motorway most of the way. The drive takes roughly 2 hours 50 in a private vehicle, a little more to a riad near Place el-Hedim at busy times.
Wondering how to get from Tangier to Meknes? Unusually for Morocco, the ONCF train is the slower option here: there is no direct service, so you change at Sidi Kacem or Kénitra and the journey runs to roughly 4h30 station to station. It is still much cheaper per person. The CTM coach is cheaper again and slower still, between bus stations.
Your driver leaves Tangier south along the Atlantic through Asilah and Larache, crosses the Gharb plain at Sidi Kacem, then turns inland to Meknes. One vehicle, no changes, no platform to carry luggage across.

Not on this route, and that is unusual for Morocco. There is no direct service from Tangier, so you change at Sidi Kacem or Kénitra and the journey runs to about 4h30 against 2h50 by road. The train is still far cheaper per person, so it comes down to time against budget.
