Motorbike & Scooter Rental in Tangier

Tangier sits where the Atlantic meets the Mediterranean — and it's one of the most rewarding cities in Morocco for a coastal ride. Motonita connects you to verified agencies in Malabata, Iberia and the city centre.

A motorbike is the perfect way to discover Tangier. The city itself is hilly with twisting medina streets, but it opens onto two of the best coastal roads in Morocco: the Atlantic route west toward Cap Spartel and the Caves of Hercules, and the Mediterranean route east through Malabata toward Ksar es-Seghir and Ceuta.

Inside the city, scooters easily handle the climb up to the Kasbah and the medina edges. Cap Spartel is a 30-minute ride from downtown and one of the most photographed lighthouses in Morocco. Riders heading south often use Tangier as the start of a Chefchaouen day-trip or a multi-day Rif mountains tour.

Motonita is actively recruiting verified agencies in Tangier. Join the waitlist to be notified when bikes are live, or — if you run a rental agency in Tangier — list your fleet for free and reach the millions of tourists arriving through Tanger-Med port and Ibn Battuta airport every year.

Frequently asked questions about renting in Tangier

What licence do I need to ride in Tangier?

For a 50cc scooter, a standard car licence (Permis B) is enough. For 125cc bikes you need a Permis A1, and for anything above 125cc a full Permis A. EU, UK, US, Canadian and Australian licences are accepted, and an International Driving Permit is strongly recommended.

What is the best time of year to ride in Tangier?

Spring (March–May) and autumn (September–November) offer the most comfortable temperatures. Summers can be hot inland; the Atlantic and Mediterranean coasts stay milder. Winters are mild but bring occasional rain — pack a waterproof layer.
