    Great way to explore Marrakesh and outskirts!

    Mo and Nisserine are fantastic guides and took very good care of us! We learned so much during our bike ride, we got water and had this fantastic local breakfast- a great way to support some local families … we learned about the bread baking tradition in the villages… All in all an excellent experience!

    A desert bike ride full of wonder and juxtaposition

    This bike tour takes you through the desert outskirts of Marrakesh. Unlike the city tour, which I did the previous day, this ride has an entirely different more chill vibe. The hustle and bustle of town is nowhere to be heard instead you cycle through the desert, poor outlying villages (where we had a delicious traditional breakfast accompanied with tea), and past many stunning private desert compounds. See remnants of the ancient tunnels that brought water from the Atlas mountains to the city was also very cool. Note: I did this ride in mid-August. If you can't handle the heat, stay out in your hotel room.
