Starting in Tangier and combining the best of culture and coastal bliss, this two-week tour of Morocco ensures you experience all the key highlights. Explore the Imperial Cities of Marrakech, Fes, Rabat, and Meknes, marvel at the dunes of the Sahara, and uncover ancient ruins. The journey concludes with a few days of rest and relaxation along the Atlantic Coast in Essaouira.
What a wonderful trip! After a bit of challenge finding our taxi transfer at Casablanca airport the holiday went very smoothly. The itinerary was excellent, well curated with just enough flexibility to suit the group's needs. We thoroughly enjoyed the variety of experiences and the expertise and humour of all the local guides that we met on our travels
The accommodation was very good and mostly met expectations as described, however the final riad in Marrakech was only a 3 star hotel and a 25 minute walk from the centre of town, which surprised me on an 'Upgraded' tour. It was perfectly adequate and certainly met our needs, just not what I expected at the end of the trip.
We were lucky to find ourselves with a terrific group of fellow travellers who all got on very well, however my highest praise goes to our group tour leader, Ibrahim who was exceptional.
Ibrahim is very knowledgeable and passionate about his country. He paced the trip well and was particularly adept at 'reading' the group and tweaking the plans where it would add to our comfort and enjoyment. His energy and enthusiastic personality together with his understanding and caring nature ensured that all group members had the very best holiday possible.

Morocco is one of the world's greatest gravel biking destinations. Offering the perfect blend of asphalt roads and rock-strewn backcountry tracks, the north African Kingdom invites riders to enter its ruggedly beautiful and storied landscapes. On this 10 day tour, we travel in the hoofsteps of ancient camel caravans and traverse Morocco’s remote mountains to the edge of the Sahara Desert by gravel bike!
Just like the merchants who once journeyed along the Trans-Saharan Trade Route, we begin our adventure in the bustling city of Marrakesh. After driving east to the oasis town of Tinghir, the first cycling stage takes us through the wild cliffs of Todra Gorge and into the rural heart of the High Atlas foothills. After an epic climb into the Dades Valley, we coil down some of Morocco’s most iconic switchbacks and ride past crumbling kasbahs and lively Berber villages. Our route then continues over the bone-dry Jbel Saghro, a deeply weathered mountain range with red-stone massifs that gradually fade into desolate plateaus. The last stage brings us into the Draa Valley, a green ribbon of date palms and a final frontier of civilization at the gates of the unforgiving Saharan sands. Before returning to Marrakesh, we visit a picturesque sand dune and explore the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Ait Benhaddou, an ancient fortified village built out of mudbrick. The tour ends in Marrakesh with a celebratory dinner and a final night in the city.
Join us on this novel gravel biking adventure à la Morocco!
