Moto Tour
Morocco
We’ve partnered with Horizon Adventures, the premiere enduro moto outfitters in Morocco. Their spirit of adventure and passion for hospitality matches the Wilderness Way.
5 days of incredible and challenging riding across the breathtaking country of Morocco. From the endless dunes of Erg Ouzina, to the High Atlas Mountains and the Sahara desert, we’ll ride every kind of terrain the country has to offer from fast winding roads, mountain trails, rocky sections, sandy sections and gorgeous take-it-all-in sections.
We’ll be staying in premium Moroccan lodging known for their pristine oasis pools, and will enjoy a night camped in an authentic Bedouin Berber camp at the Erg Chebbi dunes. The food will be a highlight of the trip as we’ll be dining on the traditional Moroccan cuisine at unique restaurants and kitchens along the way.

International Moto Packing List
Each Guest will have a 20L Dry bag to fit your non-riding gear in. You will need much less clothing than you think during the non-riding time.
We are NOT camping on this trip so that is why the typical camp-related Wilderness gear is omitted from the list below.
Your luggage and any items you don’t wish to bring on the trail with you (IE: clean clothes for flights home), will be secureley stored in our staging location and will be waiting for you after the trip.
What experience level is required for this trip?
This is an intermediate ride with high mileage days and rough terrain. Riders should have plenty of off-road experience and be comfortable standing while riding and have good endurance for longer days.
I’m an advanced rider, will I be bored?
Absolutely not! We know what it’s like to be on a trip and feel like you can’t go as fast as you want so we’ve designed the trip to allow experienced riders to rip at the front of the pack and not have to worry about the rest of the group keeping up. And our lead guides are trained to ride just a bit faster than you 😉
What are the requirements?
- Age 16+ (no max age limit)
- Valid motorcycle license in your state/country (NOT a permit only)
- Good physical fitness
Can I bring a C-PAP machine?
Yes, if you have a portable C-PAP machine we can charge it nightly with the inverter on the chase truck.
Where do I pack my stuff and keep my luggage?
The chase truck will carry your sleeping bag and ground pad. Your clothing will be packed into a 30L dry bag and loaded into the chase truck.
Additional luggage that you are not bringing on the ride can be stored securely at our staging location.
What if my family needs to get in touch with me?
They can email us at info@wildernesscollective.com and your lead guide will be notified of the emergency. We have a satellite phone and satellite text communicator with us at all times.
What if I get lost?
Every guest is provided with a personal SPOT GPS tracking device which we can use to locate them or trigger a search and rescue with the local SAR services.
What is your firearm policy?
Though you may be accustomed to riding with a personal firearm, we have a no firearms policy on all our trips in accordance with our insurance policy guidelines. Please leave it at home.
What about recreational drugs?
Our company guidelines, our insurance policies, and our partners are committed to a drug-free environment on our trips whether legal or not.
i.e. Cannabis is now legal in California in plant and edible form but is still not allowed on our trips, per our insurance policy guidelines.
Weed is what gets stuck in your spokes. Dirt is the only drug you’ll need.
What if I get hurt?
- Should any minor injuries occur on the trip, we will have a comprehensive medical kit along
- Should any serious injury occur, we will take the support vehicle to the nearest town
- Should any life-threatening injury occur we will activate a helicopter medical evacuation through the Satellite Messaging Device
DON’T WORRY, we will have a sat phone with us at all times for inbound and outbound emergency communication with family. All Wilderness trips have been device-free since we started. This means we’ll let your phone take the weekend off in this secure environment.
This is intentional to ensure that you get to experience a unique distraction-free experience and is always a highlight of the guests. Oh and don’t bring your camera either, we’ll be capturing all the photos so you can just enjoy the experience. #trustus

No refunds will be provided for any reason for an unused portion of a trip once the trip begins, including if you leave a trip for any reason or have to be removed from a trip. The trip price is a package cost and refunds and credits are not available for services not used.
There are no exceptions to this cancellation and refund policy, including for reasons related to weather, terrorism, civil strife, personal, family or medical emergencies or any other circumstances beyond our control. For this and other reasons, we encourage you to purchase trip cancellation and interruption insurance and travel protection (i.e., travel medical insurance and emergency evacuation services).
Wilderness Collective is not responsible for expenses incurred by Participants in preparing for a trip (eg. nonrefundable advance purchase air tickets, equipment, etc.) or for any additional arrangements pre- or post-departure date. The term applies whether the tour is altered, modified, or canceled by us or by you for any reason.
Our trip minimum is 8 machines, if the trip does not hit the minimum you will be notified and new trip departure dates will be available to you.
