Highly recommended! - The bike ride is highly recommended. A must do for the first day, you can see a lot of the old and new city in a few hours, and the effective bike is not too bad:) Youssef, our guide, spoke good Dutch, could explain enthusiastically and made sure the bike ride was a real success! It's totally worth the price and the time

Fantastic way to see the real Marrakech - Great morning out. Sayed our guide was very knowledgeable. He provided a real insight into Marrakech. Cycles were basic but safe and functional. It helps if you are reasonably confident on a bike as parts of the route through the Medina were pretty hectic (narrow streets filled with pedestrians, motorcycles and most other forms of transport known to man). Great to support the community ethos around Pikala. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Cycling through Marrakech, family excursion. - Our guide Khawla, who spoke very good English, went out with our family of 5. First time was made to find the right bikes for the children. Then we cycled through Marrakech, through the heavy traffic and narrow streets. One of our children found it very exciting, but she knew how to reassure him. She also knew a lot about the stops we made along the way. Super fun excursion! Very nice that there is also a charity behind it.

Top experience. Can anyone recommend to go and see Marrakech this way - We had a super fun bike tour with our Dutch speaking guide Rachid. He showed us a lot of the local life in Marrakech and was able to tell fascinating about it. He also made sure that everyone was safe because it is a busy city with a lot of traffic. It was a very nice way to see a lot of Marrakech

A crazy afternoon’s cycling, what’s not to love? - Our guide was well-organised and friendly, the whole Pikala team are well organised. The tour was not what I was expecting - the places visited and stops were more everyday life in Marrakech than tourist spots - which was great in the end. I loved the stop for the mojito mocktail and biscuits. This is not a tour for the faint-hearted though as it goes through all the alleyways and major roadways, in the thick of horses, carts, donkeys, mopeds, bikes, cars, tourists, locals… making it 100% authentic and a true slice of life in the afternoon of a local getting around the city. I would have also liked maybe a trip to the Manara gardens perhaps since we were within that range but the tour did help me get my bearings so I could explore further by myself.
