Mesmerising Morocco 2025

This ride is classed as – Grade 2-3: Intermediate

Although this tour is primarily on sealed bitumen roads, they are often riddled with potholes and can have loose gravel. We will ride some easy gravel roads. We will be traversing switchback hairpin turns in mountain passes, riding narrow mountain roads with large drops, potholes to dodge, African traffic and all of this is on the “wrong” side of the road.

While we would classify the riding as Easy to Intermediate we don’t advise beginner riders to attempt it.

See our Track Grading System for more detailed information to help you decide if this ride is right for you.

We expect riders on this tour to have several years riding experience – ideally more than three years. Although this is primarily a road tour at least some off-road riding experience may help as some roads will be gravel and can be tighter and rougher than Australian roads.

For sure pillion passengers are welcome to be a part of this tour and they will find it an incredible experience. You will see and experience so much on the back of a motorcycle.

If you have any questions or concerns just give us a call and we are happy to have a chat about your personal experience level and whether this ride is right for you.

We provide the pre-planned routes as a GPX file you can load into your GPS or Smartphone navigation app.  We typically stick together as a group during the day though using the cornerman system to aid with navigation with a lead rider guiding the way and a sweep rider keeping the group together.

Trusting our tour guide to lead the way will help you relax and take in the scenery or focus on the thrill of the road rather than stressing over getting lost. 

We like to allow riders to go at their own pace and choose how quick or slow they take things. Riders safety is paramount so we can be assured that everyone arrives safely at the overnight stop.

For each event we also provide itineraries and route sheets which include an overview map and address details of overnight accommodation stops etc.

Yes.  As this overseas tour starts and finishes at the same location we have the ability to leave your large suitcase or wheelie gear bag at either the motorcycle rental depot or our hotel until we return at the completion of our tour.  During the tour we will ask you to bring a smaller bag of around 50 litres (aircraft cabin size) in size to be carried in our support vehicle.  We have some custom maschine branded Enduristan dry bags available which are perfect for this purpose.

Typically our rental bikes come fitted with hard plastic or aluminium top boxes to carry your gear.  We do not recommend riding with pannier cases.  Your overnight luggage will be carried in our support vehicle.

Alternatively you may decide to travel light with just a dry bag that gets strapped on your bike, but keep security in mind for when our bikes are parked.

As of early 2025 their advice level is – “Exercise a high degree of caution in Morocco overall due to the threat of terrorism.”  This is Level 2 which is typical for travelling other countries in Europe such as Germany and France.

Our experience travelling Morocco in early 2024 was that the people we encountered were very friendly and welcoming but of course you should remain alert as you do any time travelling overseas.  We will have a local guide with our group to help identify concerns and keep us safe.

The main religion in Morocco is Islam, which is also the state religion. The majority of the population, over 99%, identify as Sunni Muslim.

Although mint tea is the most popular drink Morocco allows the consumption of alcohol. Alcohol must be purchased and consumed in licensed hotels, bars, and tourist areas. You can also buy alcohol in most major supermarkets.
