FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a licence to join a tour?

Yes. Each rider shows a valid driving licence matching the engine size of the chosen bike, along with an ID document. An A licence is required for large bikes.

What riding level is required?

The Ourika valley and the paved Agafay loop suit any rider comfortable on their bike. The Agafay tracks and the Tizi n'Tichka pass call for more experience. The guide adapts the pace to the group.

How much does a guided tour cost?

The price depends on the tour, the chosen bike and the number of riders. Send us your request and we will reply with the detailed programme and a quote.

What happens in bad weather?

We check conditions before every departure. In winter the Tizi n'Tichka pass can be snowy or closed: we then adjust the route or suggest another date.
