Day 1:Marrakech City Bike Tour
gravelmorocco runs a fun, friendly, and expertly guided Marrakesh City Bike Tour that takes you deep into the most fascinating parts of the city. Our thoughtfully designed route covers all the must-see landmarks while also revealing the authentic side of Marrakesh that other tours often miss.
Our guides are not only cycling experts but also proud locals with deep roots in Marrakesh and Morocco. Their insight offers a unique window into the city’s hidden stories and cultural nuances. Plus, they speak English, Moroccan Arabic, and French — so nothing gets lost in translation.
Every tour is well-organized and tailored to your pace and ability level. With Marrakesh’s sensory explosion of sights, sounds, and scents, exploring by bike is the best way to soak it all in — safely and comfortably. We provide all necessary safety gear and use only modern, well-maintained bikes, so you can focus on the experience, not the logistics.
The Route
The journey begins in the modern Menara district, passing Mohammed IV Avenue and the expansive Agdal Gardens, a 400-hectare space named after the Berber term for ‘walled meadow.’
Next, you’ll head into the legendary Medina, a UNESCO World Heritage Site founded in the 11th century. This historical heart of Marrakesh has long been the political, economic, and cultural hub of the city. Cycling through, you’ll pass iconic landmarks like the majestic Koutoubia Mosque, whose minaret is as emblematic to Marrakesh as the Eiffel Tower is to Paris, and the historic Kasbah with its massive battlements and secret gardens.
We’ll stop to admire architectural gems such as the Bahia Palace, a lavish 19th-century residence surrounded by lush gardens, and the Saadian Tombs, rediscovered in the 20th century, shedding light on a once-powerful dynasty.
Cultural Stop
A refreshing pause awaits at Djemaa El Fnaa, Marrakesh’s main square and market. Here, the buzz of street performers, artisans, and market stalls captures the city’s lively spirit. It’s an essential stop for anyone wanting to feel the pulse of Marrakesh.
Palmeraie Extension
If you opt for the extended route, we’ll cycle towards the Palmeraie, a vast palm and olive tree oasis on the city’s outskirts. With stunning views of the snow-capped Atlas Mountains, it’s the perfect place for memorable photos.
Modern Touch
The final leg leads to Gueliz, Marrakesh’s modern and stylish district. Here, you’ll experience a different side of the city — one that blends tradition with contemporary living.
