Morocco is the gateway to Saharan Africa. An exotic land with a unique mix of Arabic, French and Berber cultures that can be traced back to the country’s colonial past and its geographical location on the north-western tip of Africa. It is one of the safest countries on the continent and Moroccans are friendly and hospitable towards tourists. Along with its cultural diversity, Morocco is also known for its cuisine, art and ever-changing landscapes, which makes it an exciting country to explore on a motorcycle! Morocco first appeared on MotoRover’s tour calendar in 2019 and we have already completed seven successful tours in the country with over 100 travellers!
The 2024 edition is a 10 day motorcycle tour starting and ending in the biggest city of Morocco, Casablanca. The entire riding route is on paved roads and we are offering BMW and Husqvarna adventure touring rental motorcycle options for the ride. Contrary to the stereotype, Morocco is not just about the Sahara desert. It has vast mountain ranges spread across the length of the country and the entire northern and eastern border of Morocco is a coastline. Our route offers a good mix of terrain and landscapes as it covers the High Atlas and Middle Atlas mountains, the Sahara desert and the Atlantic coast of Morocco. Apart from the ride, we have plenty of sightseeing and activities on the tour including a break day in the Imperial city of Marrakech. Shop for local artefacts in the famous souqs of Marrakech, walk through narrow alleys of the fortified Medina (old town) and experience a sensory overload in Jemaa el Fna, the vibrant central square.
A MotoRover guide will lead the tour on a motorcycle followed by that participating riders and the group will be followed by a support van that carries tools, a mechanic, a second MotoRover guide and your luggage. We have designed this tour after a thorough on-ground exploration of Morocco to give you a refined experience. The terrain is enjoyable for amateurs as well as experienced riders and the daily riding distance have been calculated to provide you with ample breaks and photo opportunities.
Group size will be limited to 12 riders and apart from the motorcycles and support team, the tour package includes airport pickup/drop, breakfasts and dinners (veg/non-veg) and the accommodation will be in boutique hotels, Riads and luxury tent camps in the Sahara! All you have to do is arrive and ride.
