Practical tips
For long journeys like Tangier-Oujda, book your CTM or Supratours bus tickets in advance, especially during peak season. This guarantees your seat and a better choice of seating, avoiding potentially less comfortable or slower local buses.
In Tangier, make sure you go to the main bus station for major companies (CTM or Supratours) and not a local station for faster, more direct service. Stations are often distinct.
Even if the bus is economical, for journeys exceeding 8-10 hours (like to Dakhla), a low-cost domestic flight might be wiser. The time saved and fatigue avoided can justify the price difference.
If your trip extends to Spain, book your Tangier Med-Tarifa or Tangier Ville-Tarifa/Algeciras ferry tickets online. Check schedules and departure terminals as they can vary by company and destination.
Some bus companies offer more schedule flexibility. For night journeys, ensure stops are limited for better sleep quality. Domestic flights have fixed schedules, less prone to delays.
