Morocco Motorcycle Tour Itinerary
Day 1 ° Fuengirola - Ceuta - Tetouan
160 km ° d
We start our engines at 10 am and drive to Algeciras... Andalusia's port to North-Africa. Our first connection to Africa is a tiny piece of Spain in the continent, Ceuta, from where we will cross to Morocco. Today, it will feel like Costa del Sol in Morocco when we drive to Tétouan on the coastal road. Tétouan is also the stop of our first night in Morocco.

Today you smile easily inside your helmet from curve to curve when we follow the gorgeous coastal road to Nador. Morocco is Africa's gift for bikers and you understand very soon why! One great thing here is also, the police do not tease you if you don't drive like crazy! Our second night in Morocco will be in the port city, of Nador.

Day 3 ° Nador - Midelt
408km, 5h 19m ° b,d
Yes, you will see many lambs, goats, donkeys and dogs in Morocco. The good thing is that they a used to traffic and do not react to it. Naturally, you need to be awake as always on the bike! Today we are crossing a lot of peaceful countryside from Nadar to Midelt... most of the villages look like they looked 100 years ago. It's very different from the modern coastline you saw on the first day.

Today we pass the other one of Morocco's skiing centres at Ifran, but yes this is a motorcycle tour so we don't go skiing... and there is no snow this time of the year!

The so-called must-visit in Fès is the world's oldest tannery, Chouara Tannery! And no matter what, after the Medina of Fès, we have another wonderful driving day ahead of us. The film Smurfs has not been shot in Chefchaouen but in Juzcar in Andalusia! Chefchauen is blue because it was painted blue by Spanish Jewish refugees in 1492 after escaping the Inquisition from Europe!

Is this tour right for me?

With own bike or rental bike?
If you live in Spain, Portugal, Andorra or South France, it’s easy to come also with your own bike. And especially if you live where ever and have a bike in South Spain. And because we stay on paved roads, you can come even with a Honda Goldwing or Harley Davidson Ultra Glide!
