On the agenda

Escape the winter and embark on a Morocco motorcycle tour! In just a 3-hour flight, you’ll find yourself in the heart of the Atlas Mountains. Welcome to an adventure like no other. Ride for six days through the southern Atlas, a true land of exploration. As you twist through lunar landscapes and empty roads, the Royal Enfield becomes your perfect companion. Meet the Berbers, explore their lush oases, and discover their ancestral craftsmanship. This tour strikes the perfect balance between scenic off-road tracks and remote regions.

From the Atlas Mountains to the Sahara dunes

YOUR MOTORCYCLE TOUR IN MOROCCO

8 stages - 621 miles
Marrakesh Airport - Aït Benhaddou Étape 1/8
Marrakesh Airport - Aït Benhaddou
Hello! Welcome to Morocco! Your driver will be waiting for you at 2 p.m. at Marrakesh airport to take you to Aït Benhaddou (a private transfer lasting 4 hours). Once settled in your Riad, head to the village's Ksar, an 11th-century site listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Take the time to explore and lose yourself there; every viewpoint is like a postcard. In the evening, meet with the group for a briefing on the adventure that lies ahead. Your Africa motorcycle tour starts here!
Ait Benhaddou - Foum Zguid Étape 2/8 177 miles
Ait Benhaddou - Foum Zguid
Today is the first day of our Moroccan adventure! We start by crossing Ouarzazate, the gateway to the desert, and continue south. We take a short break to visit Fint Oasis and find out how farming works here. We then follow a series of bends into an exceptional rocky landscape with villages forming oases in the hollow of the desert mountains. Travellers are few and far between on these roads, so we’ll feel privileged to cross the Atlas Mountains almost totally alone. We take a tajine break in Taznakht before heading back on the road to Foum Zguid on a stretch of the Paris-Dakar racetrack. Overnight stay at a comfortable hotel.
Foum Zguid - Zagora Étape 3/8 121 miles
Foum Zguid - Zagora
Today, we head to Zagora. We hit the track early in the morning and cross a valley that looks abandoned, but as we progress, we come across some villages and back to civilisation! We stop for an improvised picnic, the perfect moment to admire the landscape and stretch our legs. Entering Zagora is marvellous, as we cross the Draa River to reach our riad. After this wonderful riding day, a spa and massages are available to those who want them (at extra cost).
Zagora - M’Hammid Étape 4/8 50 miles
Zagora - M’Hammid
Early in the morning, we visit Zagora Oasis and the Jewish kasbah where some jewellers still work. We then get back on the road for a short ride to Erg Lihoudi Dunes, where we end the day. We’ll enjoy a traditional meal and stay overnight at a camp. It’s time to kick off your shoes, walk barefoot in the dunes and enjoy the calm and the sheer vastness of the desert. Welcome to the Sahara! We’ll spend the night under the stars.
M’Hammid - N’Kob Étape 5/8 128 miles
M’Hammid - N’Kob
We drink one last tea with our feet in the sand and get back on the road. We visit Tamegroute and its Koran library where ancient manuscripts are archived. Ahmed also offers a tour of the village and we visit some local potters, a renowned craft throughout Morocco. We set off again through Draa Valley hopping from one bank to another. Once we get to N’Kob, we stroll around this typical regional town, home to more than 40 kasbahs.
NKob - Dadès Étape 6/8 142 miles
NKob - Dadès
We only have a short ride today. We leave N’Kob and quickly climb to a higher altitude in the Jbel Saghro massif and cross Tizi n’Tazazert mountain pass at almost 2,300 m altitude. The views are incredible and don’t stop until we make our way down to the Dades Gorge. We enjoy all the shades of red in this emblematic valley and arrive at our favourite hostel.
Dades - Aït Benhaddou Étape 7/8 129 miles
Dades - Aït Benhaddou
Today’s our last day on the slopes of the Atlas Mountains on fantastic tracks until we get to Skoura. After a week on our Royal Enfields, these tracks become easier to tackle and we take them on with confidence. It is difficult to believe our eyes, there is one stunning landscape after the other, drenched in red and orange hues. It’s the perfect way to end our adventure.
Aït Benhaddou - Marrakesh Airport Étape 8/8
Aït Benhaddou - Marrakesh Airport
Private transfer to Marrakesh International Airport (4-hour transfer). End of our services.

Primary assistance to reach the nearest medical center is mainly provided by our assistance vehicle, means such as helicopters or ambulances being very rare.
