Fes - Getting There By Road

There are bus terminals in both the Ville Nouvelle and by the various gates to the Medina, but arrivals from most destinations drop at the main bus station (gare routière), just north of Bab Mahrouk. CTM, the national company that runs bus services between towns in Morocco and abroad (tel: 055 732 992; website: www.ctm.co.ma), drop passengers at their office on the corner of rue Tetouan and avenue Mohammed V in the Ville Nouvelle.

Going by car to Fes means a long drive across Europe to Algeciras, from where frequent  ferries depart for Tangier or Ceuta.

Parking is widely available throughout the Ville Nouvelle. If you stay in car-less Fes el-Bali  you can leave your vehicle in the small car park south of Bab Boujeloud, just a few minutes walk from the old Medina and some of its hotels.

Emergency breakdown services:
There is no general breakdown service - hire cars should have emergency breakdown details on board. For highway emergency services tel: 177. If you are involved in a road accident, wait for the police to arrive.
