Marrakech: Motocross Experience in the Palmeraie

Quads and buggies are fun. Motocross is something else entirely.

No cage, no extra wheels for balance — just you, the bike, and a private circuit cut through the sand, bumps, and tight turns of the Palmeraie. This is for riders who want the real thing, or who've always wanted to try it for the first time with proper instruction behind them.

Highlights

• 1 hour of motocross riding on a private circuit in the Palmeraie
• Choice of bike: Yamaha YZ 125, YZ 250, or Kawasaki KX 450

The Program

Pickup (optional, 20-30 minutes): If arranged, we collect you from your hotel or riad and transfer you to the Palmeraie circuit.

Gear up and briefing: Your instructor fits your helmet, gloves, goggles, and full body protection, then walks you through the basics — throttle control, braking, body positioning — tailored to your experience level.

Motocross session (1 hour): Ride your chosen bike across a varied circuit of sand, bumps, and technical turns, with your instructor adjusting the route to match your comfort and skill.

Optional camel ride: For an extra fee, end your session with a short camel ride through the Palmeraie — a calm contrast to the adrenaline of the circuit.

Return transfer (optional): If arranged, we drive you back to your hotel or riad once your session is complete.

Total time, session only: 1 hour. With pickup, briefing, and gear-up: approximately 2-2.5 hours.
