I contacted Wheels of Morocco after being let down by another tour company. Viki replied straight back to me and answered all my questions. The tour was full but she contacted the guide and we were allowed to be added. From that point Viki answered all my emails and with speed. Everything was seamless with the organisation. Our tour guides Abdou, Amine and Oscar were fabulous, the priorities for us was safety and to enjoy the trip. We certainly felt looked after and loved the fact that they moved our bikes for us each day so ready to leave! Abdou was such a professional and made sure everyone was always safe. The bikes were great, I loved my BMW GS1250 and felt at ease when riding up front with Abdou. The hotels we stayed in were fabulous and everything was so well organised. My only criticism is that we had our plans changed where we missed a days riding and stayed in a hotel for two nights instead of one. We didn’t mind but if it was explained why that would have been better. Also, whilst I would use Wheels of Morocco again, I would be hesitant to go on an off road tour as I didn’t realise that any damage to the bikes had to be paid for, even minor such as scratches to the crash bars. However I fully understand where there has been any significant damage. Whilst this didn’t impact us, and only others in the group, my concern going off road will inevitably result in dropping the bike and so it would put me off having to pay a hefty bill at the end. Whilst it was made clear when we collected the bikes it wasn’t at the outset. Plus I don’t understand why crash bars need to be fixed when that’s what they are there for. Also the farewell/ last night dinner, the venue wasn’t the right choice in our view, it didn’t allow everyone to chat and re-live the trip as it was loud with music, more like a night club, and the food was poor. So for those reasons I’ve given the review 4 stars otherwise it would have been a 5. Overall though fabulous tour and great people.

My friends and I spent 2023 researching motorcycling tour companies that operate in Morocco, speaking to some at the ABR Festival. We chose Wheels of Morocco (WOM) because they offered a wide range of tours and bike options, availability of direct flights to Marrakesh where WOM are based and their customer feedback is excellent. It’s after the ride ends that I understand what I have just experienced riding the Desert & Atlas tour with WOM…..and wow what a ride we had. Greg, Amine & Abdoul delivered a first class service, they worked tirelessly as a team to provide the ride of a lifetime experience for all; on our tour there were returning customers which indicates that WOM are providing an outstanding service. The time and effort WOM put into making their rides the best they can be is evident in the quality of the riding experience. The bikes are well prepared and perfectly suited to the roads and terrain, all the hotels were excellent. Greg the team work hard to make the riding days run smoothly, nothing we asked of them was too much trouble. Greg (and the team) provided a detailed ride briefing each morning, explaining lunch and evening food options, advice on the road conditions, what to expect on the short gravel road sections, acting as guides at the sightseeing stops and tour photographers. Pre ride the communication with Viki was excellent; we asked many questions and received prompt answers, Viki made the pre ride process easy. Would I go back to Morocco, yes, would I go with Wheels of Morocco, absolutely. Greg, Amine and Abdoul are inspiring motorcyclists and Morocco has inspired me to return soon. You can trust WOM to deliver a fanatic holiday; there is simply no reason to consider any other motorcycle tour company operating in Morocco. Thank you WOM. Andy Watts

I highly recommend Wheels of Morocco, Just completed the 9 day Desert and Atlas tour, the guides were extremely helpful and knowledgeable helping with the daily organisation such as where and when to stop for breaks. The hotels were excellent and a wonderful variety of types. The group from a wide area of the world all gelled together and that was in a large part due to the guides. The roads and scenery were incredible, the colours, mountains, plains and the desert were awesome! Thanks to Greg, Abdul and Amine, not forgetting Viki in the office who patiently answered our questions prior to the trip.

I have just finished the 9 day atlas to desert tour, i can Highly recommended this one it was excellent in all areas. What a fantastic trip led by tour guides Greg, Abdoul and Amine all experienced riders who looked after the group intently on the ride and at the hotels with their local knowledge so this makes your life easier. The bikes are well maintained and looked after throughout the tour by the guides with tools and spares carried on the support truck which also carries the luggage so you don't need to have it on the bikes. The tour provided a good mix of road surfaces, scenery and historic places to visit, riding is at the pace you feel comfortable at and they will wait if your too busy taking in the scenery. On the lead up to the tour Viki provide great comms and answered all my questions quickly and efficiently. I cant rate WoM highly enough. Try Morroco its an amazing country to ride in and to experience... Thanks to the Team ,,,Greg, Abdoul, Amine and Viki for a great trip, i have some fantastic memories,,,,,,thank u

Having agreed that our next Group motorcycle adventure would be to Morocco, and that it should be an organised and guided trip, the search was on for a reputable Motorcycle Tour Company to meet our requirements. We very quickly selected Wheels of Morocco based upon the online Customer reviews and the range of itineraries they offered to suit all desires, from the mostly off-road oriented adventures to more scenic and cultural experiences. Their 9 day Atlas and Desert tour ticked all the right boxes not only in terms of visiting the top places to visit in Morocco, e.g riding through the Atlas mountains, the Oasis at Aoufous, the World heritage site of Ait Benhaddou, riding up the famous hairpins of Dades Valley, the amazing twisting and turning roads of Tizin’ Tichka Pass, but also for the perfect balance between roads and options for short off road excursions to ride up to vantage points for scenic panoramic views, such as the Gara Medouar crater, famously used in the James Bond film Spectre and more recently the BBC drama SAS Rogue Heroes. Another key factor in choosing Wheels of Morocco was their location. As most of our group are in full time employment, time off work and away from partners is limited so being able to start and finish the tour in Marrakesh made the logistics easier (plenty of flights in and out Marrakesh), thereby minimising time spent travelling to start the tour. It also meant that the tour guides were all locally based and therefore very knowledgeable with the area, which was very welcomed and invaluable during the trip. Once we had booked with Wheels of Morocco the questions started arising, such as can we fix things to the bikes for carrying day luggage or camera mounts, what does the insurance cover, what and where is the best way to change money in Morocco (Morocco is a closed currency which means you can’t buy it outside and take it in), how much cash will we need etc, all of which were very quickly answered by Viki, usually by return Email. By the time it came to depart for Marrakesh we were well prepared thanks to Viki. On arrival in Marrakesh we had a welcome a brief, where Greg, the tour leader, introduced himself and the team, Abdul and Amine, and we got to meet the other riders. Greg provided a safety brief and an introduction to the basic rules of the road, and talked about the itinerary for the following day, which he did every morning during the tour as we gathered around the bikes eagerly anticipating the off and another day of amazing riding and adventure. On the road Greg rode at a comfortable pace, managing to strike a perfect balance between those who enjoyed a faster pace, whilst not losing those who chose to ride at a slightly more sedate pace to allow them to enjoy the views, and there was always Abdul or Amine at the back to ensure no one got lost. The bottom line is, you can ride at your own pace without fear of being left behind. The hotels were fabulous, clean and comfortable and like a little oasis at the end of a hot days ride, usually with a welcome beer and dip in the pool. The bikes, I rode a Yamaha T7, were great and ideal for the conditions. They were obviously well maintained and didn’t miss a beat throughout the whole trip, although Abdul and Amine were on hand if necessary. On collecting the bikes from the Wheels of Morocco premises on the first day, tools were made available for attaching things to the bike, like the fixing straps that I had for my Kreiga US-10 pack. This really was a fantastic trip and I cannot write highly enough of Wheels of Morocco, the whole experience from booking, to all the administrative arrangements, the itinerary, the hotels, the staff, the bikes and the memories, nothing was too much trouble for the team to sort out. I’m so glad we chose Wheels of Morocco, I would recommend them without hesitation. My thanks to Viki, Greg, Abdul and Amine for a most memorable trip.

Hi Ross, It was a real pleasure to ride with you and your group. Thank you for the great memories and the laughter. We thank you also for the very detailed review as it will surely give a good insight to fellow riders hesitant to choose their next adventure in Morocco. It is always a pleasure and a validation to see that the effort we put in everything, from client communication to hotel selection, through the route planning, provides a unique and memorable adventure to fellow bike riders. Hope to meet you again in Morocco or out there on the road. Ride safe, Greg

I highly recommend WOM tours having just completed their atlas and desert rose 9 day tour. The tour leaders strike an excellent balance between guiding whist letting you ride independently. The scenery is spectacular as you would expect. Motorcycling is a great social leveller and folks from all walks of life were brought together by WOM. Cheers Greg and your team.

This was my first experience with WoM. I found it to be a well managed company with great staff that guide you along your m/c excursion. The staff are professional, knowledgeable, and highly skilled riders who do a great job of making sure everyone is safe, and all the details of the trip were very well planned and executed. Their motorcycles were in great shape, and the accommodations and meals were also very nice. I highly recommend WoM and would definitely choose to go with WoM again.

The Long Weekend trip was excellent. The general organisation was pretty slick throughout, the bikes were well maintained and the riding route was really varied and interesting. All the hotels were a decent standard and our guide Abdou did a good job making sure everyone in the group was looked after. I think we would all have preferred to pay a little extra for the trip to include full insurance cover, rather than the €3000 deposit against any damages, but the repair rates within that seemed pretty reasonable and none of us had any issues.

Can't recommend the Wheels of Morocco team highly enough! The tour was absolutely amazing, hotels and food was spot on, the roads and route is breath taking. The guides are incredibly knowledgeable from guiding your off reading skills to what local restaurants are good on days around the tour. The bikes are well maintained and various options to suit individual needs. Can't fault anything from the trip other than it was over too quickly! Best holiday I have had in years and can't wait to go again! Don't Uhm and Ahh about it, just book it and have a blast! To the whole team at Wheels of Morocco thank you for a fantastic trip!

I am from Canada and this was the third overseas motorcycle tour that I have done. The roads and scenery were as good or better than Italy. Weather in May was perfect with the hottest temp being about 38 degrees centigrade. Most of the time it was 30 c or less depending on the time of day. Wheels of Morocco is very professional. My BMW R 1250 GS was in perfect condition with only about 12000 kms. Other bikes had more kms but they were in great condition. The guides, Aboud (lead rider), and Amine (support truck driver) were very professional and maintained focus on safety and our awareness of what we were riding into. Yet they still stressed that this was our vacation. They were also great to be with at mealtimes and they fit in with the entire group with their sense of humor. A huge plus was that Amine would drive ahead when the group stopped and would set up to photograph us as we drove by. Other trip had a few shots but WM literally took hundreds of photos and forwarded the complete package to us a few days after the trip. The checkout and check in procedure for the bikes was smooth and efficient. Lastly, the accommodations were good. About half were over my expectations and the rest were typical of 3 and 4 star hotels. Highly recommend for professionalism and value
