• Rain Protection

RIDING SAFELY IN MOROCCO
ON THE ROAD: SAFETY FIRST
Your safety is our top priority. Always wear your helmet, gloves, jacket, and boots while riding to ensure maximum protection.
GET TO KNOW YOUR MOTORCYCLE
Before we set off, take some time to familiarize yourself with your motorcycle. Adjust the controls to your riding preferences and ensure you are comfortable with them. This is essential for a smooth and enjoyable ride.
ROAD RULES AND LAW ENFORCEMENT
The road rules in Morocco are generally similar to those in your home country. However, if you are used to riding on the left side of the road, please inform your tour guide at the beginning. We recommend following the tour leader until you feel comfortable riding on the right side.
VARIETY OF RIDING SCENARIOS DURING THE TOUR
In Morocco, you will encounter a variety of scenarios during the tour, ranging from the
relevant information
crowded cities of Marrakech to the desert roads and the winding roads in the Atlas Mountains. These diverse conditions require your full attention and riding skills. It is crucial to listen to the tour leader’s instructions and follow their directions closely.
Particularly in the Atlas Mountains, the tight curves and winding roads demand precise handling and careful attention. Be especially vigilant for sand on the road, which can make riding more challenging. When approaching these curves, adhere to the prescribed path and follow the tour guide’s instructions to maintain control of your motorcycle and prevent accidents. Your guide will provide the best techniques to safely navigate these challenging sections, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable ride.
RIDING FORMATION: STAGGERED AND SINGLE-LINE FORMATION
We will ride in a staggered formation on wide roads and in a single line on narrow roads. This approach keeps the group safe and well-organized. Riding on a motorcycle tour is different from riding alone or with friends; the group may have varying paces, but our main goal is to enjoy the journey, not rush.
STAYING WITH THE GROUP
When riding in a group, it’s crucial to stick together. The tour leader ensures everyone turns correctly when changing routes or exiting highways. Each rider is responsible for the rider behind them. If you don’t see the rider behind you, reduce your speed or stop and wait. This alerts the tour leader that something has happened, allowing them to return and assist. Additionally, a support vehicle will always be behind the group to help if needed.
IF YOU GET SEPARATED
If you separate from the group and reach an intersection without knowing if the group has turned, continue straight ahead unless someone is waiting for you. When approaching an intersection, slow down and check if the group is waiting within sight. This helps ensure you stay on the correct route and rejoin the group promptly.
relevant information
TOLL ROADS
While we aim to avoid highways as much as possible, there are times when we must use them. The tour leader will be the first to pass through the toll, and in the case of automatic toll booths, he will return to assist the group. To ensure a smooth process, always have your credit card or cash easily accessible. In Morocco, it is particularly important to have some Dirhams with you. As you approach a toll booth, take your time to pay and proceed safely.
MOTORCYCLE FAILURES
We carry a spare motorcycle with our support vehicle to ensure that any mechanical failure does not inconvenience our riders. Often, we are too far from a motorcycle dealer for quick repairs. The spare motorcycle allows us to quickly replace any bike that experiences a mechanical issue, ensuring that the tour continues smoothly and without significant delays for our riders.
PURCHASING FUEL
Refueling is done whenever the guide indicates and is already included in our plan. The tour leader will typically stop to refuel the motorcycles at the end of each day before we head to the hotel, ensuring all bikes are ready to go in the morning. You don’t need to worry about fuel; the tour leader will consider the fuel needs of all motorcycles in the group, even those with smaller tanks. We will always refuel all the motorcycles, regardless of their current fuel levels.
Before joining the tour, verify that your credit card works without issues in Spain and Morocco. In Morocco, it is necessary to always have Dirhams with you, as some gas stations do not accept cards. It’s crucial to refuel with the correct fuel type: gasoline. Our tour leaders are available to assist you with this task.
relevant information
Fuel Types and Pump Colors:
Gasoline/95 – When you are at a gas station, you will see pumps labeled “Essence” for gasoline.
Diesel – Known as “Gasoil” in Morocco.
Always ensure you are using the correct pump to avoid any issues with your motorcycle.

• Holafly

what to bring
currency on hand; something between 400€ and 600€ should be more than enough, depending on your spending habits.

MOTORCYCLE EQUIPMENT
As you prepare for your exhilarating motorcycle tour through Morocco, it’s crucial to be well-equipped for the varying weather conditions you might encounter. Expect hot days, colder temperatures in the Atlas Mountains, and the possibility of some rain.

Full-face Helmet: Opt for a high-quality, comfortable helmet. Your usual helmet from home is the best choice if it fits well.
Jacket and Pants: These should include protection for elbows, shoulders, knees, and hips. Choose items with a water-resistant material like a Gore-Tex outer shell or an inner liner.
Extra Rain Protection: We recommend carrying a waterproof jacket and pants to wear over your motorcycle gear if it isn’t already waterproof. These items should be conveniently stored in your bike’s side or top panniers for easy access.
Motorcycle Boots: Water-resistant boots are ideal. Ensure they are comfortable and either tall or mid-height.
Gloves: Protective and comfortable gloves are essential. Having two pairs is advisable, one suitable for warmer conditions and another for colder, wet days.

Alps Mountain Routes
We are pleased to invite you to experience the Alps’ splendor with us, riding through Italy, Switzerland, Germany, and Austria. These will be days of pure motorcycling passion, as we enjoy extraordinary and beautiful Alpine passes: Furka, Oberalp, Gavia, Stelvio, Pordoi, Spluga, Grossglockner... These names will be forever etched in our minds, and we shall relive the sharp switchbacks and stunning views long after we are back home from this incredible adventure.
Northern Portugal Adventure
The “Northern Portugal Adventure” is a fantastic opportunity for any rider to explore two of the most well-known regions of this lovely country in a different type of guided tour. Starting and ending in the iconic Porto, Portugal’s second-largest city, this unique experience will feel like a relaxing time away with two-wheel friends: motorcycles only, and no support vehicle, as the journey on the road is four-day long and the motorcycle boxes will be enough to carry all that is needed for the road.
Best of Tuscany
“Best of Tuscany” is a journey through the world-famous central Italian, combining sun, culture, art, and ancient culinary traditions. This 8-day adventure will be a trip through iconic places and small hidden gems in the core of a country that is incredibly proud of its heritage. You will discover Rome and its imperial history; explore the glorious medieval past of Siena; admire the wine region of central Tuscany; and understand why Florence is the cradle of the Renaissance Era. In contrast to these world-famous sites, you will be introduced to lesser-known places like the beautiful villages of Pitigliano, Montalcino, Pienza, and Volterra, ideal for motorcycle riding.
Andalucia Highlights
“Andalucia Highlights” is the short version of our 15-day deep exploration of this world-famous region in southern Spain for riders looking for a week of spectacular roads and sights under the sun. Besides the stunning combination of sandy beaches, idyllic countryside, spectacular mountain ranges, and historical monuments, Andalucia has a rich past that begs to be explored. The Moors ruled Spain for seven centuries, starting in 711 with the invasion of Tarifa by Muslims of North Africa, and their influence is still profoundly felt today wherever we go.
