Frequently Asked & Question
Yes — transfers to/from Marrakech can be arranged on request. The crossing of Tizi n'Tichka pass from Marrakech adds approximately 3 hours and a small surcharge. Contact us to confirm availability and pricing for your dates.
This tour is rated Hard. You should be a fit, experienced cyclist comfortable riding 45–72 km per day over 5 consecutive days, including one major mountain climb to 2,260m on Day 3. Previous multi-day cycling experience is strongly recommended. The support vehicle is always available if you need to rest or skip a section.
We provide Trek and Specialized mountain bikes, fully serviced before each tour. Helmet, gloves and a basic repair kit are included. If you prefer to bring your own bike, please let us know in advance so we can adjust bike hire accordingly.
Day 3 — the Tizi n'Tichka ascent (72 km, 2,260m summit) is the most demanding day. An early 7:00 am start is essential. The climb is long and sustained but the descent that follows is one of the great rewards of the entire route. Your guide and support vehicle will be with you throughout.
Nights are spent in carefully selected traditional properties: riads in Ouarzazate and Kelaat M'gouna, guesthouses in Telouet and the Ait Ourir valley, a hotel in Dades Gorge, and an auberge overnight inside Todra Gorge itself — a memorable way to end the cycling journey.
