Energy cycling gels offer a quick form of crabs replenishment. Most contain the simple crab sugar, which is the fastest form of energy to replace glycogen. It’s suggested that people who cycle at a moderate intensity for more than 90 minutes, need to replace between 30g and 65g of carbohydrates per hour and we would thoroughly recommend bringing some of these with you, as well as some energy bars.

Visas are typically valid for 3 months and processing takes around 5-6 working days. Tourists may stay in Morocco for up to 90 days, although visa extensions can be a lengthy and complex process.

Note: Some travelers find it easier to exit Morocco through the Spanish-controlled cities of Ceuta or Melilla and re-enter, thereby receiving a new entry stamp.

"We very much enjoyed the entire experience. Communication with organizers were well. The driver was on time and very nice and we enjoyed biking with our tour guide! Our bikes were good and for us the best way to explore the Atlas Mountains… to steep with a regular bike! Lunch was nice too!"

- Pam, (As seen on TripAdvisor)

"Stupidly beautiful scenery, a fantastic route that took in everything we hoped to see. The lunch was perfect, and the guide was very proud of his area and always happy to tell us about the location and answer any questions."
