Day-by-day itinerary — 8-day self-guided motorcycle tour Morocco

Day 1 Day 2 Day 3 Day 4 Day 5 Day 6 Day 7 Day 8
01

Málaga → Tangier

Ferry from Algeciras · approx. 90 km + crossing

Departure time: 07:00h .The journey begins in Málaga, from where you head to Algeciras to catch the ferry to Tangier. The crossing of the Strait of Gibraltar is the first moment of the adventure — Europe fades behind you and Africa appears on the horizon. Arrival in Tangier and first night in Morocco.

Ferry included Strait of Gibraltar Africa visible Night in Tangier
02

Tangier → Chefchaouen

Towards the blue city · approx. 120 km

From Tangier the road climbs into the Rif, the mountain range that separates northern Morocco from the rest of the country. The landscape is green and mountainous, very different from what comes next. At the bottom of the valley appears Chefchaouen, the blue-painted city — one of the most photogenic corners in the world.

Rif Mountains Blue city Chefchaouen medina Night in Chefchaouen
03

Chefchaouen → Fez

To the imperial city · approx. 200 km

Descend from the Rif and cross the central corridor of Morocco towards Fez. The road passes through open landscapes before reaching the oldest city in the Arab world. The medina of Fez is labyrinthine, alive and absolutely overwhelming — leave the bike and get lost in it.

04

Fez → Erfoud

Crossing the Atlas · approx. 350 km

The most epic stage of the tour. From Fez the route crosses the Middle Atlas via the Ifrane pass and descends south. The landscape changes radically — the pines and snow of the Atlas give way to palm valleys, mud-brick kasbahs and the first scent of desert. Arrival in Erfoud, gateway to the Sahara.

05

Erfoud → Merzouga → Dadés Gorges

The Sahara and the gorges · approx. 200 km

First detour to Merzouga and the Erg Chebbi dunes — the highest in Morocco. The silence of the desert at dawn on the bike is unforgettable. Then head west along the Route of the Kasbahs, one of the most spectacular roads in Africa, until reaching the Dadés Gorges.

06

Dadés Gorges → Marrakech

Through the Draa Valley · approx. 280 km

From the Dadés Gorges the road crosses the High Atlas via the Tichka pass — at over 2,200 metres altitude, with endless views around every bend. The descent towards Marrakech is a gift for any rider. Arrival in the red city at sunset.

07

Marrakech → Casablanca

Towards the Atlantic · approx. 240 km

Leave Marrakech and ride north along the Atlantic highway. Casablanca is the modern face of Morocco — cosmopolitan, bustling and full of contrasts. The Hassan II Mosque, one of the largest in the world, overlooks the Atlantic Ocean. Last night in Morocco.

08

Casablanca → Tangier → Málaga

Return · approx. 340 km + ferry

The last day on the bike. North route to Tangier along the coastal highway, with the Atlantic on your left. Return ferry from Tangier to Algeciras — the Strait in reverse, with 2,000 kilometres of Morocco under your belt. Return to Málaga. Estimated arrival time: 21:00h

Before you ride

Tips for your self-guided tour in Morocco

1

Prepare your bike & gear

Morocco rewards well-prepared riders.

  • Check oil, brakes and chain before departure (if you rent with us, we handle this).
  • Pack layers: the Atlas can be cold in the morning even when the desert scorches at midday.
  • Essential gear: armour, certified helmet and durable riding clothing.

2

Documentation & border crossing

Crossing into Morocco requires extra preparation.

  • Valid passport required — national ID is not accepted in Morocco.
  • The ferry from Algeciras or Tarifa is included — arrive at the port with enough time.
  • Keep vehicle documents handy: registration and international insurance.

3

Route & stops

Morocco is not just roads — it is culture, food and a different rhythm.

  • Refuel when the tank is half full — petrol stations are scarce in desert areas.
  • Stop at medinas and souks: the experience is as much off the bike as on it.
  • Respect local customs — dress modestly when entering towns and villages.

4

Choose the right time

The weather makes all the difference on a 2,000 km route.

  • Spring (March–May): ideal temperature in the Atlas and the desert.
  • Autumn (September–November): perfect light, fewer tourists, bearable heat.
  • Avoid July and August in the desert — extreme heat makes riding dangerous.
  • Winter: possible snow on Atlas passes — check conditions before departure.
