day 1Adventure starts in Marrakech

Buzzy Marrakech is a whirlwind of tradition and culture, an invigorating introduction to Morocco. If you arrive with time to explore we recommend walking around the old walled medina where winding alleyways are filled with souks selling everything from street food to herbs, spices and pottery.
Usually around 6pm, you’ll say hello to your tour leader and fellow travellers at the hotel, where we gather as a group for the first time to get to know each other and learn more about the adventures ahead.
Your tour leader then ensures a big Moroccan welcome over a group dinner together.

Cycling Southern Morocco

Cycling Southern Morocco was wonderful, challenging riding, scenic and beautiful, good food, nice, helpful and competent leaders. I enjoyed the local produce snacks of nuts and dried fruits. I didn't feel rushed with my photo stops during the riding. The tour sweep was always waiting, to be sure no one was left alone. I enjoyed our group meals of authentic local cuisine- the dinner at the Auberge was the best! It was wonderful to have a small group, and get to know people from different countries.
