4 Days Merzouga KTM Desert Tour
Merzouga, Morocco
Four days on KTM 450 EXC machines out of Merzouga, working the desert along the Algerian frontier on the kind of tracks the Paris-Dakar rally used to run. The route takes in the Erg Chebbi dunes, the Gnawa musicians of Khamlia, the oasis at Tisrdmine, the remote settlement of Ouzina, the abandoned Portuguese ruins that locals call the lost city of Oubahlou and the baryte mines at Tijekht, before finishing through Rissani, the original Alaouite capital. Departures run from 9am and need a minimum of two riders, all 18 or over with a full motorcycle licence and genuine off-road experience. The bike, fuel, insurance, all meals, three nights of accommodation, a guide and a support vehicle with a mechanic are included.
