Bus is a convenient way of travel no matter whether you need to get to a neighboring town a couple of hours away or venture further afield crossing the whole country. Whatever your budget, buses have you covered. Express buses offer the most affordable ticket price for travellers who have very little money to spend. VIP options are geared toward those who do not want to compromise on comfort. Before you jump on a bus, make sure you choose the type of service which suits you best. For a long-haul trip look for a VIP or first-class coach which provides non-stop service to your destination or just call a minor number of stations along the way. Express or local buses in many cases may prove an acceptable choice for shorter trips, but longer rides are often not the best buy. Study the timetable before going as many long-haul destinations are served by night buses, and some offer wider seats or sleeper berths for such travels. Make an online reservation for your bus ticket with CTM. Other travellers’ reviews will help you to choose the best ticket and coach class.

CTM Top Destinations
CTM buses ply a number of routes and here is the list of some of the most popular ones:
One of the best things about bus travel is that you can almost tailor-make your trip adjusting it to your requirements for privacy and comfort. Different classes and types of buses cater to the different needs of travellers. The cheapest trips are normally offered by standard-class buses. They may be called local, express or ordinary. These are a good choice for shorter trips. Sleepers or VIP coaches are good both for longer and overnight trips. They may offer berths or wide soft reclining seats, sometimes with built-in massage options, blankets, soft drinks, and snacks, or more substantial meals on board or during toilet or refuelling stops. Travelling by night buses allows you to save on a hotel room, but to ensure the most comfortable ride do choose the class of your bus wisely. Prices always depend on the distance you ride and the type of coach. For some, even shorter trips, it is worth investing some extra money and buying a seat on a VIP bus as it can save you twice as much time as you spend travelling by an ordinary bus.
Travel by Bus: Pros & Cons
Pros of Bus Travel
Bus is the best choice to get to destinations that are not connected by rail or planes. The network of buses often covers almost the whole country, and their routes are well and long-established.
Opposite to air travel and sometimes rail travel, taking a bus does not require arriving at the bus station much in advance. Check-in, even on international routes, does not take much time. Luggage allowances are usually very traveller-friendly, and the fee for extra luggage, if limits are set, is normally not very high.
Bus tickets can be more affordable compared to air or fast train tickets. There is always a choice of ticket classes for all pockets. Cheaper standard options may be a bit slow and do not offer top comfort, but anyway acceptable and bring you to your destination. On longer routes, toilets or toilet stops as well as snacks, water, and sometimes toiletries and blankets are almost always included in the price.
If you are ready to spend more, some VIP coaches offer seating comparable to business class on a plane with wide soft reclining seats, blankets, fewer passengers, and many other perks to make your trip a pleasant journey.
Cons of Bus Travel
Newer intercity bus terminals are very often located out of the city close to bigger highways to allow buses to avoid city congestion. Unfortunately, it may create extra challenges for travellers, too. Getting to such a terminal may be a problem as in some destinations there are restrictions on vehicles allowed to enter the terminal, and you will have to use special carriers to get there. This results in higher costs as prices may be inflated. Also do calculate extra time if you are travelling during rush hours, especially if you are not familiar with the traffic situation at your starting point.
Buses are probably the means of transport which runs out of schedule more often than trains or planes. They are heavily dependent on the road situation which sometimes can be unpredictable – accidents, road construction works, detours, etc. This is especially true for travels during weekends, high season, or national holidays. Do keep this in mind and do not plan tight connections.
Travelling on certain routes or during the most popular periods may require advanced booking. Bear in mind that it is not always possible to show up at the bus station and hop on the next bus – tickets may well be all sold out, so organize your trip accordingly.

The bus and connection were as advertised. However, I had booked and paid for an earlier bus which they advertised as being available, then got a message saying it was full and that I needed to rebook for a connection three hours later. Not sure why they advertise something that’s not available. Beware.

Good assistance and information at the Coach Station. A very comfortable and relaxed experience in the air conditioned coach. Good to have the phone charging points on board. The comfort stop was perfectly timed and pleasant. Time went quickly. I can 100% recommend this journey and service.
Download the 12go App or go on the CTM site. Both extremely easy to navigate and pay online. Thank you.

I booked this ticket early april 14 ,as i knew there was a festival in fes so i wanted to make sure i have 2 tickets for the morning bus . I know for certain there were many seats when i booked. However I got a message one week before the leaving date saying there were no seats avaliable and would i like the 1300 bus or my money back. This is tricky one week before departure. We are seniors and it was stressful

Bus was on time and clean, it felt safe and made it to the destination in good time, with a convenient stop at a clean service station. I’m not sure what made it ‘comfort’ though, there was only standard coach leg room and although there were usb charging sockets they did not work at all - so just a standard coach really.

Great, comfortable experience. Do make sure to get your luggage and or backpack paid and tagged before you get on the bus. The service station they stop at for a comfort break also has a good shop and bakery. Pretty much as fast and comfortable as when we had a private car the last time we travelled this way.

New, comfortable and clean bus. The driver was good.
The route from Essaouira to Agadir has many curves, so make sure you have a solid stomage.
There is a 20 minutes break after 1,5 hour drive. Some people were dropped before Agadir, eg at Taghazout.

It was ab easy booking and fast check-in. Everything was ok. Only one thing I didn’t like. I booked the COMFORT bus with black seats as shown on the picture with more space and a higher price. But I was put on the normal bus. That was a bit dissatisfying and disappointing. But we got to Agadir in the end on time.

The experience was good as we were first time travellers. On picture showed different seats to these. But ok.
Me and my husband couldn’t sit together as we purchased at same time but was given different seats. Also the timing we was 1 hour late as we paid for the fastest bus.

The Main Issue I have is Safety
The second Bus Driver he is a chain smoker.
He was smoking before we left Essouira, in the break and as soon as we arrived at Agadir.
During the trip he was coughing every minute. It was a smokers cough. That was very annoying hearing that all the way.
I am 100% sure his health was terrible he could very easily have a heart attack or a stroke while driving. I do not know his age but he looked old and sick. The other Bus Driver looked Healthy and young.
Smokers die about 10 years younger often with a stroke or heart attack.
The Road is dangerous and with a heart attack or a stroke the bus could crash and in the wrong place everyone could die on that road.
Pilots of aeroplanes have strict health rules and are not allowed to pilot with any circulatory issues.
Plus there are other safety measures on a plane a co-pilot and auto-pilot.
But if the gentleman has a stroke or heart attack, 1 second is all it takes at the wrong place and everyone dies. This will happen it is a statistical probability.
I was shocked that CTM would allow someone so obviously unhealthy to be responsible for so many lives.
I would say CTM should not employ a chain smoker anywhere near the age of that person.

The bus left and arrived on time ! It cost 125?MAD for a 3 hr and 15 minute bus ride.
They didn’t tell me that for luggage in the belly of the bus you had to get a ticket and pay 5 MAD extra. But you get a ticket with a number and it’s safe. There are seat belts. You get an assigned seat. The earlier you book the chances are higher to get a seat in the front. Between Marrakesh and Agadir they have a 15 minute break. You can buy something to eat ( food is expensive!) or go to the bathroom. When you get there, there are red taxis. You have to negotiate the price. I paid 50 MAD to go to a hotel in Founty near the beach.

I booked for the 13:15 bus not realising that the time had changed - there was a different time on the pdf ticket - so when we got to the bus station we had missed our bus. We then had to pay for another ticket on a slower bus which was incredibly uncomfortable and slower. We didn’t arrive into Essaouira until 22:45, very tired and hungry. I wouldn’t recommend this journey if travelling from another destination also earlier in the day!
