Motorcycle tour in Southern Morocco

DESCRIPTION

Morocco is not only a land of adventure for off-road enthusiasts: it is also an exceptional destination to experience entirely on paved roads. Through this guided motorcycle tour, we invite you to discover a fascinating country of exotic and contrasting landscapes, between powerful mountain ranges and vast desert expanses. In one week, you will cross the Atlas Mountains and the wide-open spaces of southern Morocco, where every bend reveals a new palette of colours.

You will be captivated by ancestral kasbahs and ksour, remnants of a thousand-year-old history, before enjoying an unforgettable evening under canvas in the heart of the Erg Chebbi, reached by camel. The winding roads of the High Atlas, suspended between deep gorges and majestic peaks, will undoubtedly remain one of the highlights of this journey.

And, as everywhere in Morocco, the warm welcome of the Berber people and local inhabitants will immediately make you want to return to this country of spiced flavours, vibrant colours and deep-rooted charm.

PLACES OF INTEREST

The souks of Marrakech, the kasbah and ksar of Aït Ben Haddou, Merzouga and the Erg Chebbi, the Dadès gorges, the Todra gorges, the Tizi n’Tichka and Tizi n’Test passes, a camel trek in the Merzouga desert, the Ouzoud waterfalls, Jemaa El Fna Square in Marrakech, and the Ouarzazate film studios.
