3h Private Sidecar Ride / Secrets of Marrakech
Description
100% Tailor-made | Private | Off the beaten path | All inclusive A vivid flea market, secret gardens behind closed doors, old art deco buildings or khettaras in the palm grove are just a few of the many hidden treasures we will introduce you to on this unusual open-air ride. From the stunning art deco buildings, the once lively open-air cinema, the very first hotel built in 1918 or the old clock shop, we take you on an enchanting time-travel in the former French district known as 'Guéliz'. Discover the heart of the Medina while driving through remote neighbourhoods where daily life seems to have stopped centuries ago. Whether the Kasbah or the Mellah districts or the flea market in Bad El Khemiss, you will discover a rich and certainly unknown Marrakech. Once a very fertile oasis, the palmgrove, only known nowadays for its luxurious villas, used to give birth to the entire Tensift region more than a thousand years ago thanks to its ingenious underground irrigation systems.

We loved this excursion. It really engaged us with the heart and soul of Moroccan culture. We were met by a beautiful woman at reception who introduced us to Nabil, our guide/driver for the trip. They have quite a collection of motorcycles with sidecars. And off we went, roaring through the city with occasional stops to explain the area’s long history. Though narrow streets and a stop at a riad to show and explain about the ancient city. We got to know Nabil and how his story fits into the local culture. It is like a friend taking you out and showing you where they are from. It was all very interesting and we felt more connected to Morocco because of this fun little adventure. He even dropped us back to our hotel afterwards. We had a very memorable afternoon. Thank you to Nabil and all at Marrakech Insiders.
Thank you so much for your beautiful message! We are delighted to read that your ride with Nabil helped you feel closer to the heart and soul of Moroccan culture. This is exactly what we love creating: not just sightseeing, but the feeling of being taken around by a friend sharing where he comes from. It was a real pleasure to welcome you, and Nabil and the whole Marrakech Insiders team will be very touched by your words!
Ibtissam was incredible, knowledgeable, and fun! We felt like we met the city, and made a friend. I’d love to return and would do the tour again just to see Ibti, and she’s welcome to stay with me in California when she visits!!
Thank you so much for this beautiful message! We are delighted to read that your ride with Ibtissam made you feel like you truly met Marrakech! "California Insiders" does sound nice... It was a real pleasure to welcome you, and we hope to see you again soon for another adventure with Ibti!
It is great fun with fab guides and an opportunity to see lots of Marrakesh which you might not otherwise see! Sitting on the back for three hours might be a bit tiring but there are lots of stops and we swapped round which worked well.
Thank you so much for your kind message! We are delighted to read that you had such great fun with our insiders, and that the ride helped you discover parts of Marrakech you might not have found otherwise. Swapping seats is definitely part of the adventure — and a good excuse for a few extra stops along the way! It was a real pleasure to welcome you, and we hope to see you again soon on three wheels!
One of the highlights of our Morocco trip was our adventure with Marrakesh Insiders. It gave us the chance to experience parts of Marrakesh we never would have discovered on our own — far beyond the bustling old town. A huge thank you to Ibtissam, our incredible guide and driver, whose passion, energy, and love for motorcycles made the day unforgettable. We loved hearing about her own bike, “Bumble Bee,” and exploring the newer areas and hidden corners of the city through her eyes. She was knowledgeable, fun, and truly inspiring. This experience gave us a completely different perspective of Marrakesh, and we highly recommend it to anyone wanting to see the authentic side of the city.
Thank you so much for this beautiful message! We are delighted to read that your ride with Ibtissam was one of the highlights of your Morocco trip.

Amine was an experienced and wonderful driver as we explored the streets and alleyways of exciting Marrakech--a city to stimulate all of one's senses! We learned about the ancient system of bringing water from the mountains to the date palm oasis. From the Medina to the neighborhoods beyond, we were able to get a good overview of the city.

An amazing morning!! With an excellent and special surprise visit!! (But it's a secret 🤭). An exceptional discovery of Marrakech, outside tourism at times, unfeasible otherwise. Anecdotes, the history of Marrakech, the pleasure and originality of the side car, etc... a doubly magical morning thanks to Agnes, our driver and guide, a beautiful person, professional and friendly (a thousand thanks 🙏). A high budget, but no regrets. Unforgettable!!!
Merci beaucoup pour ce magnifique message ! Nous sommes ravis de lire que cette matinée avec Agnès vous a offert une découverte de Marrakech aussi originale, authentique et pleine de surprises.

Merci encore pour votre confiance, et à bientôt pour une nouvelle aventure hors des sentiers battus !
