Why You’ll Love This Tour

Six days on the road, Atlas & Dunes is made for those who want it all: the altitude of the mountains, the silence of the desert, and the pulse of southern Morocco running through every village, every valley, every track.

From the Peaks of the Atlas…

Right after leaving Ourika, the ride hits you with the raw beauty of the High Atlas. You’ll climb winding passes like Tizi n’Tichka, where the air thins and the landscape opens up. Each curve pulls you deeper into a world shaped by rock and time.

To the Depths of the Gorges

The road narrows between the cliffs of the Dadès and Todra Gorges, where stone rises like cathedrals and the bike hums between shadow and light. Stop in a small oasis, meet a local, sip a mint tea — this is Morocco that breathes.

The Edge of the Sahara

And then, it hits you — Merzouga. The dunes aren’t just scenery; they’re an arrival. Golden, vast, hypnotic. You’ll ride into them, maybe sleep in a luxury bivouac, maybe in a hotel — but either way, you’ll feel something shift under the stars.

Oases, Kasbahs, and Forgotten Roads

From Erg Ouzina to the Draa Valley, the route slips into a softer rhythm. Palm groves, ancient kasbahs, villages made of earth and sun. You’re not just passing through — you’re soaking in centuries of Berber life, where the ride becomes human.

Aït Ben Haddou and the Return

Before heading back to Ourika, one last wonder: the UNESCO-listed ksar of Aït Ben Haddou. Cross it on foot, feel its silence. Then the road pulls you home through the Anti-Atlas, tired and full, like only real travel makes you.

Day-by-Day Itinerary

Settle into our guesthouse nestled in nature. Meet the team, prep your gear, and enjoy a traditional Moroccan dinner. The adventure begins tomorrow.

Ride through the High Atlas Mountains via the Tizi n’Tichka pass. Arrival in Skoura, a lush palm grove dotted with centuries-old kasbahs.

A spectacular day along the dramatic Dades Gorges, heading toward Tinghir and the gates of Todra. Expect narrow canyons, desert plateaus, and hidden oases.

Southbound into the Sahara. Remote villages, desert trails, and a night under the stars in the dunes of Merzouga — either in a luxury bivouac or a desert hotel.

Off the map and into the unknown: sandy tracks, lunar landscapes, and then the lush stretch of Morocco’s longest oasis. The helmet comes off… but the memories stay.

Ride north through the rugged Anti-Atlas. Raw landscapes, steep ridges, and the sensation of reaching the edge of the world.

Final ride. Explore the iconic Aït Ben Haddou, then cross the foothills of the Atlas back to Ourika. End-of-ride celebration in the valley.
