An excellent experience all around- the views were gorgeous and well worth the climb - although you must have a high level of fitness and biking experience Guide was super nice and patient- lunch on the rooftop with Mountain View’s was amazing!
Superb walk recommended by the guide. The guide is very available by message to answer questions. I recommend.
Great trip cycling with Abde. Bike is good and lunch stop was nice with local tajine and tea. Would recommend.
Hello Marieke, Thank you very mush for you lovely feedback and happy to hear that’s you liked day trip with us. Abde
We had a fantastic days ride in the Atlas Mountains.! Bikes were great and our guide was lovely… stunning scenery, cycling through the mountains and villages was a highlight of our Morocco trip. We would both thoroughly recommend it to anyone looking for an active day whilst exploring Morocco. The mountains are amazing… cycling is pretty tough going as you ride up up up…! Lunch stop is great, with the most amazing views… Take water and energy snacks and have an awesome day.!! 🚴 🏔 Look no further, boom with these guys. We plan to visit again and do a longer trip 👍 ⭐️ Thank you !!
Transfer Service from my hotel with a private driver at the top! Punctual and welcoming. Arriving at the starting point in Imlil, my guide takes the time to explain the itinerary over a glass of tea. Check the equipment, bikes and it’s off for 1 hour of ascent to the Tizi n’Tamatert pass. The landscapes are breathtaking, Lahen takes the time to share some information about the region and its people in the sandstone of our various breaks. Excellent lunch then it started again for a beautiful descent into the valley punctuated by some climbs. In the end, nearly 900m of D+, sumptuous landscapes and the discovery of Berber culture. Thank you Lahen and Biking in Morocco for this wonderful trip in the valley of lmlil.
The Atlas Mountains are not to be missed. Highlight of my trip to Morocco. Rashed was a great guide, packed a delicious lunch, and is eager to have tourists back and discover the wonders of biking in Morocco. I’ve been lucky enough to live and bike in Colorado. These winding mountains roads dotted with villages was a very memorable ride.
