Taking to the mountains with 3 London cyclists and 3 people who haven’t cycled for years! - We were a group of 6, 2 adults and 4 teenagers. A couple of us cycle in London. So it was a big adventure to take to the mountains with Raschid. A couple of us were taken up in the van. The rest of us did a mix of cycling and walking our bikes up. The crew were so patient and encouraging. It was amazing to be up in the mountains, the air is so clean. We then all managed to cycle the flatter parts. Lunch was the best meal we’ve had here - then food tastes so much better when you have pushed yourself to the limit! The kids loved racing down the mountain. It was a fantastic day that we will never forget. You don’t have to be a seasoned cyclist but you do need to be fit. Cycling across Wandsworth feels much more dangerous at times than our adventure in the mountains. Highly recommend this trip.

Imlil Enduro Day Trip - I booked the Imlil Enduro Tour. It was the ride of a lifetime, ripping through berber villages, lunch was delicious, and the single track is super fun, chunky, and fast, definitely black diamond level trails. There were 2 options for enduro, 2h hike while a mule carries your bike, or the longer option to shuttle up 2k vertical ft to tizi pass. I opted for the shuttle. The ride was 17mi, 3000 vertical ft of climbing, and 5000 ft descending. Rachid was an amazing guide. The pickup in Marrakech was easy, direct from the hotel, and driver was very friendly. Highly recommend!

Incredible scenery - We did an ebike day trip from Imlil into the mountains with Rachid and had a great day. Our bikes were top of the range Cube and Scott ebikes and both were very well maintained. We set off from the village in warm sunshine and because of the assisted pedalling enjoyed a leisurely climb to a viewpoint where we refreshed with some mint tea. We then descended on off road tracks before climbing to our lunch stop at a traditional Moroccan gite where we had an amazing tagine served with warm bread and salad. The weather and terrain then changed rapidly though as we cycled through icy tracks and it started snowing! It was a great experience though and we had a good laugh about it. Rachid was an excellent guide and always checked to make sure we were ok. We had a great time seeing the Atlas Mountains and highly recommended Rachid and Mountain Bike Morocco. The cost of our trip included transport to and from Marrakech and a visit to a local argan oil cooperative where we had breakfast. Our driver Said was also very good and made sure to stop at nice viewpoints along the way. We would definitely book with this company again!

Biking Bliss - An incredible day cycling by e-bike with MBM. Spectacular scenery, epic climbs and downhills and a fantastic ride with new Scott e-bike. I could have stopped every 5 minutes for photos! We took tea in a local, authentic Berber home, frequent quick stops for healthy snacks and water, and a wonderful commentary of the region and villages. Morning pick-up from Marrakech and return early evening in a new, well maintained SUV. Huge thanks to Houssain and his team

Great 7 day mountain bike tour from Atlas to Sahara - We had a great one week trip late November/early December 2018 mountain biking from the Atlas to the Sahara with MBM. Houssain had everything well organized from the airport pickup in Marrakech to hotels (riads), bikes and car transportation. The tour was just like Houssain had described it. We bicycled through beautiful mountains and valleys with interesting towns, villages, kasbahs and nomads along the way. The biking was mostly on dirt roads, some shorter sections on paved roads, and on one day a nice single track section. There were only two of us, me and my friend. Difficulty and lengths of daily sections were just about right for us, only one day was a bit challenging. Our guide Lahcen was great; he had a good sense of our capabilities, our pace, and of what we were interested in seeing along the way. Travelling with him and our driver Mustafa was very pleasant. The accomodations were good, modest but nice riads that offered everything we needed. We slept well every night and the food was good and plentiful. Overall, the tour went very smoothly and we fully enjoyed it.

Atlas Mountains Bike trip - We had a such a wonderful experience and I can't say enough about our trip ( 2 days atlas mountains bike trip); the organization was perfect and we didn't have to worry about anything, our guide Lahcen made the trip the most incredible experience and we can safely say that we have all made a friend for life. If you decide to do any bike trip in Morocco, make sure to book with Mountain Bike Morocco Company and you will have an incredible bike trip from start to finish.

Unforgettable few days in the Atlas Mountains - This trip has been an amazing experience for us, with challenging yet rewarding mountainbiking across the Atlas Mountains. Different landscapes every day with perfect guidance. The route was amazing and slightly adaptable towards our liking/abilities. Our guide Mohammed is not only amazing on the bike, but also very friendly and a capable mechanic! Lunches and dinners were of the best food we had in Morocco and the places we stayed in were perfect for this trip. Would highly recommend!!

Top experience! - We were a group of 7 friends, and we chose Houssain's company to organise a 7 stage MTB-tour in the HIgh Atlas. We got a very varied tour! Every stage had its unique character, and they organised everything for us: transfers to and from the airport, Luggage transport, lodging (very very basic sometimes, but that's part of the adventure), a guide (Mohamed) and all meals. It was nice to ride through the berber villages, and we got some very challenging singletracks, as well as steep climbs and downhill parts. What could be better? The guide was poorly equipped, his bike was in very bad condition, and he had very little bike tools, he dind't even had a decent working pump. The food we got was delicious, but the soup was the same every day. It was a pity that water was not included in the package price, so we had to pay a bit extra at the end. But overall: we wanted a great experience, that's exactly what we got, i would surely recommend Mountain Bike Morocco to other people!
