When you arrive, you got into the main terminal. you must fill in immigration forms that can be found in boxes around the area. The queues can take some time, but be patient as you are now in Africa! Once through clearance, you can collect your baggage and then proceed to customs. The officials seem to xray everything again before you leave.
There are several cash points in the airport terminal so we suggest you get some cash out there.
If you have chosen to book car hire through us then you will be met at the Airport by a Car Hire representative who will wait for you with a board that will have your name on. The representative will then drive you into Agadir where you will be taken to Car Hire Office to complete the forms. The drive from the Airport into Agadir is only 35 minutes, but it will give you a chance to take a look at the Moroccan road system and also to get used to being on the right side of the road.
As you will not have got any currency you will need to ask the representative to stop at an ATM in order for you to get local currency, you must pay for your car hire in cash. For a small car you can expect to pay around 350 dirham per day. Once the money is exchanged and the forms are completed you can then drive. Immediately you will need to get petrol for the car, there is a garage a few hundred metres from the Car Hire Office, if you’re unsure please ask the representative who will show you.
If you have arranged your own car hire, the desks are all in the arrivals area. If you have chosen to get a taxi, look for the approved taxi drivers – there is a fixed fee scheme in place, so a trip to Aourir will cost 350 – 400 Dirhams depending on your arrival time. Most taxis know where the Villa is, but show then the map provided.
Whilst you are in Agadir, if you want to have some alcohol on your roof terrace it is advisable to go to a supermarket as there is nowhere in Aourir that can sell you Alcohol (except the Hotel ……which is very expensive) whilst in the Supermarket you can also get some water as you cannot drink the water in Morocco. Again there are shops very close to the office and the representative will be able to show you.
Once you have done all of this then the road to Aourir is a straight road, (we will send you a map) – it will take you about 10-15 minutes. You will know when you are getting close to Aourir as you will see flowers in the middle of the road outside the Holiday home of the Saudi Crown Prince. You will drive down a hill to a roundabout and you must go round the round about to the last exit (which will be on your left) this little dirt track will take you to the Villa.
Depending on the time of your flight will depend on how we will get the keys to the Villa to you. During the day you will be met by our representatives and they will be able to let you into the Villa. If your flight is a night flight we will email you details of how you can get the key which will be left with the security guard.
