Arrive at Marrakech Airport and transfer to your hotel. Overnight in Marrakech.
This morning you depart Marrakech for the UNESCO designated world heritage village of Ait Ben Haddou. Travelling by 4-wheel drive from Marrakech via the Tizi N’Tichka mountain pass (2260m) as far as Telouet, you’ll have the chance to visit Glaoui Kasbah before jumping in the saddle for your first ride.
Later, you’ll cycle through scenically situated small Berber villages and the Ounila Valley, making your way to the stunning Kasbah village of Ait Benhaddou. Tonight you’ll spend a magical evening in Ait Ben Haddou.
Leaving Ait Benhaddou via the beautiful Taslmante Valley and Boutheghrar this morning, you’ll visit an ancient troglodyte settlement and may even see nomadic Berbers living in caves handed down through generations of families. It may be possible to visit one of these Berber families, share a refreshing cup of mint tea and learn about their unique lifestyle. The final leg of today’s ride takes you to the interesting Dades Gorge. Finally, you’ll retire for the evening at a guesthouse situated in Dades Gorge.
Today you cycle to the Berber oasis town of N’kob. Setting out your route takes you through the Dades Valley which lies between the High Atlas Mountains and Jbel Saghro Mountains (Jebel Saghro). Making your way into the Jbel Saghro Mountains you cross the Tizi n’Tzazert pass (2200m) all the while enjoying stunning panoramic views in every direction. Continue onto the Berber oasis town of N’kob which lies at the foot of the Jbel Saghro Mountains. Overnight in Nkob.
Continuing your mountain bike exploration of the Moroccan desert, this morning you’ll ride to the beautiful and seemingly endless date palm groves of the lovely D’raa Valley – the largest date palm groves in Morocco. Following local dirt tracks you’ll make your way into the heart of the oasis, exploring the palm groves and the small Berber villages lining the edges of the D’raa River which is the life source for this beautiful area. Tonight you’ll stay in Agdz.
After breakfast you’ll load your bikes in the van and drive to the splendid Draa Valley. From here, you’ll ride the last short stage through one of the most beautiful valleys of Morocco with a succession of traditional villages lying in green oases. After lunch you’ll drive to Marrakech via the Tizi-n-Tichka Pass before settling into your hotel in colourful Marrakech.
It's a bike-free day today as you set out on a guided tour of Marrakech, the Southern Pearl of Morocco. Learn about this city's rich history and culture, discovering palaces, ancient tombs, mosques and squares. Among the countless highlights of today, you’ll visit Koutoubia Mosque, the city's most famous mosque and the nearby square, Djeema el-Fna, where you can practice your bargaining skills. The tour concludes with an exploration of the Souk Market, where you’ll discover endless stalls brimming with mounds of fragrant spices, intricately woven Berber carpets, ceramics, hand-made leather goods, tantalising food.
Breakfast in the Riad, if you have spare time before the transfer to the airport, you can finish your visit to the city or go shopping in the Souk before your transfer to the airport of Marrakech.
