Tour Overview
Get ready to explore one of North Africa’s most spectacular and diverse landscapes – from ancient kasbahs and cinematic backdrops to vast desert plateaus, rocky canyons, and the endless dunes of the Sahara. This 8-day motorcycle tour of Southeast Morocco is designed for adventurous riders looking to push their limits while immersing themselves in the region’s raw, untamed beauty.
Starting and ending in Ouarzazate, known as the “Door to the Desert,” this circular route takes you on a thrilling ~1,000 km journey through ever-changing terrain. Along the way, you’ll experience a mix of tarmac, gravel tracks, dry riverbeds, ridgelines, and deep sand, each day offering up exciting challenges and rewards.
You’ll ride through remote Berber villages, navigate across the rugged Anti-Atlas Mountains, and overnight in a luxury desert camp beneath the stars. Expect dramatic scenery, rich culture, warm hospitality, and terrain made for off-road dreams.
This tour is fully supported, with experienced guides, handpicked accommodation, great food, and a carefully curated route that balances challenge with comfort, designed for the experienced off-road rider!
