Marrakech Taxi Drivers Prioritize Tourists, Frustrating Locals Amid Peak Season

In this period of tourist influx in Marrakech, taxi drivers neglect Moroccan clients in favor of foreign tourists. A behavior that annoys the people of Marrakech and raises questions.

It is difficult for a Marrakchi to get a taxi at rush hour, in this period of tourist influx. The inhabitants of the ochre city are subjected to the law of taxi drivers who ignore their calls, preferring to transport foreign tourists, reports Kech24.

Faced with the high cost of living and the rise in fuel prices, taxi drivers neglect their Moroccan clients to make a little more profit. They believe that foreign tourists are more generous than nationals and residents of the city.

The people of Marrakech denounce this behavior of taxi drivers which affects their daily and professional life.
