Quite simply the ultimate Moroccan off-road biking adventure

Those seeking a real off-road adventure need look no further. Taking in the dramatic mountains of the Central High Atlas, the gorges of the south, the volcanic landscapes of the Sirwa, the oases of the Draa Valley and the dunes of the Sahara, this demanding biking adventure shows off in all its splendour the diversity of Morocco. Suitable for those with a good level of fitness and an adventurous spirit, our Atlas Grand Tour uses Morocco's unrivalled network of jeep tracks connecting even the most remote villages, with nights spent in a variety of styles and standards of accommodation, from auberges to family houses, 3 star hotels to wilderness camp sites.
