    We had a fabulous tour around back streets of medina. Our guide Oumamie was bright, charming and informative. There were two other people with us. Perfect number. We had a drink stop the Clock cafe and had henna tattoos ! It was a wonderful way to see the city, and see parts you’d never see. Fully recommend. It was my highlight of our time. I love Marrakech, this was my fourth visit and we’re to happy we did this tour. Thank you Pikala Bikes.

    This was a great way to see the city. You are biking through busy streets so be confident in your biking ability 😂 but it was still a great time!

    Great bike tour

    Our guide was really great and gave lots of knowledgeable and informative he worked hard to make the tour a really enjoyable experience Highly recommend

    Highly recommended bike adventure

    Sofia_F, Mar 2026
    Our November 2025 bike ride through the bustling streets of Marrakech was an unforgettable experience, blending the city’s vibrant energy with a reassuring sense of safety. Despite the constant flow of cars, motorbikes, and pedestrians, the two guides—one leading at the front and the other watching from the back—ensured we were always secure and well looked after. Their attentiveness and knowledge added depth to the journey, taking us beyond the main routes to discover off-the-beaten-path corners of the city. A highlight was the stop at a traditional coffee shop, where we enjoyed drinks, local biscuits, and a great rooftop view.

    Eco friendly sightseeing

    anthony_c, Feb 2026
    It was a great way to see a different side of the city. Our guide Raba (spelling may be wrong sorry) was amazing. Very knowledgable and friendly. Visiting some traditional local workshops really gave an insight into the history behind the industries that still tin this day are completed by hand. I love the fact that the company supports the local community and their ambition to make Marrakesh an environmentally friendly tourist spot. The only drawback for the tour was as some stops there were other tourists groups making small workshops very cramped. If you are not comfortable on a bike or cycling round a busy city stay close to the guide.

    Disappointing biking tour Marrakech

    Graziella_C, Oct 2025
    We joined a bike tour in Marrakech, but unfortunately, it didn’t quite meet our expectations. We only stopped about four or five times for very short explanations from the guide — for example, at a bakery or a mosaic shop — but there was little to no information about the history of Marrakech or how people live there. Most of the time we were just cycling around without much context, which was a bit disappointing. We had hoped for a more informative and engaging tour.

    Biking your way through Marrakesh is an experience you do not want to miss !

    Vivy_K, Apr 2025
    Fantastic to see the city by bike. Yasser was an amazing guide and told us a lot of interesting things about local life. I really recommend this trip to anyone visiting Marrakesh

    Great trip; don’t worry about the traffic!

    David_K, Feb 2025
    Takes you to see some interesting local trades & areas. The young lady guide we had was outstanding . Highly recommend

    Pikala tour with Hamit

    Rachel_G, Jan 2025
    This was an excellent way to see the medina. Our guide Hamit was brilliant- knowledgeable and friendly and prepared to give us lots of time and space to look and to question. The trip lasted nearly 3 hours taking in the medina, kings palace gardens and some of the new city. I completely recommend

    Wonderful bike tour

    Jorn_V, Dec 2024
    We had the best afternoon in Marrakech with our 2 guides and the other people in the group. Our guide Kaula gave us a lot of interesting information with stories from her childhood. The bike tour in the old and new city was sometimes challenging, but wonderful to do!

    Not for the faint hearted

    Antonia_d, Dec 2024
    Staff are lovely and very helpful. Bikes are not that good! Recommend that you only do this if you are very competent cyclist and very able to cope with a bike that might not quite suit you. Definitely not for the faint hearted! It’s chaos on the streets and you need to be able to cope with potholes, cyclists, motorists, motorbikes, dogs, pedestrians and any manner of moving things all getting in your way on very narrow streets!

    Cycle tour

    DeborahME, Nov 2024
    Lovely guides but not a cycle ride for the faint hearted. Very informative, visited a mosque, the bakery , an hammas and demonstration of tile making.

    Utterly amazing 🤩

    MrSean_M, Oct 2024
    This was the best part of our holiday. It’s a true experience cycling around Marrakesh and not for the faint hearted but it was just excellent and as a couple we loved it. Hamid was our tour guide and he had help from another brilliant tour guide. We really got out into the community and understood facts about how people live. The ethos behind pikala bikes was also super and a brilliant purpose ❤️

    Pikala Biking Tour in Marrakech

    Patrick_S, Sep 2024
    This bike tour was the one of the highlights of our Morocco trip. Zouhair, our guide, was exceptional—fluent in English, knowledgeable about Marrakesh, and an adept cyclist. We appreciated his quick thinking when he split our group to accommodate a family with language barriers and a child who struggled on the bike. The tour covered all the advertised spots, with a well-deserved tea break at a charming café afterward. Unlike other tours we had booked on our trip, there were no pressured sales stops -- just pure exploration. Highly recommended!

    Cycling Marakech Experience

    BRUCE_C, Aug 2024
    A brilliant few hours cycling around Marrakech. We had already walked around the Medina and stopped at several sights but this tour covered areas we had not been to. The young leader handled our group very efficiently and made cycling through the maze of obstacles quite enjoyable and a unique experience. The cookies and iced tea at a secluded cafe was the icing on the cake.

    Perfect way to see Marrakech

    Tony_W, Aug 2024
    A really great experience with an enthusiastic guide who took us to some really interesting places. I think it’s a great way to see Marrakech. The cafe stop at the end is really nice too.

    An amazing time riding around Old City

    Gordon_S, Jul 2024
    An absolutely amazing experience. Not only a great way to see the city, but a history lesson as well. I learned so much about the city, culture, social norms, etc. i highly recommend this tour!

    Like being part of a movie

    Sander_B, Jun 2024
    Cycling through the small streets of Marrakech feels like being part of a movie. The guide was very good and the modern bikes were easy to ride. Best way to see a lot in a few hours en really feel like being a part of the hectic city center. 😀

    pikala means biking fun!

    Fatma_T, May 2024
    This was a great way to see the city. I loved that the tour was not about the places and fancy places but the places for everyday people, the bakery, hammam, zellij workshop etc. Our guide Zouhair was fun and pleasant to talk to, and very knowledgeable and informative.

    Adrenaline filled experience

    Darlington_N, Apr 2024
    Our guides (Zuhair and Achmed) were very knowledgeable and conversational. They made all the difference to the experience.

    Exhilarating and informative and friendly

    Everything, the cycling, seeing such a lot of the city, culture and fabulous guide. An adorable young woman whose name we pronounced Kowla!

    Amazing experience

    Linda_C, Mar 2024
    This was one of my favorite experiences in Marrakesh. It was a bit crazy riding through the old city but amazing at the same time. The contrast with the new city is unbelievable. Loved the new city part because it was easy and beautiful. Highly recommend.

    The tour guides were excellent on the bike trip. I would recommend it to everyone coming to Marrakech

    Amazing City Tour

    Soroya_R, Feb 2024
    Absolutely fantastic tour; you will need to be vigilant as traffic comes in multiple directions. Best way to see the city as you get to see local life.

    Amazing experience

    Anamaria_P, Jan 2024
    It was really fun. I am not a professional biker so I would not recommend it in summer when it is much busier, but I totally do it again in off season. Khawla, our guide, is a beautiful soul, she knows so many things, has a warm personality. I was really happy having her as my guide. She gave us a lot of information. Thanks, pikala bikes for the experience

    Pikala was great

    Katrina_w, Dec 2023
    Great exploration on bike. Took in the local streets and learned about day to day living. Guides were very knowledgeable and helpful.

    A fun way to discover the city!

    Genevive_L, Dec 2023
    A fun way to discover the city and learn about the local culture. We stopped at several historical sites and local trade shops. The guides explained how the trade works. There was absolutely no attempt at selling us anything (which is welcome!).

    Great to see the...

    Great to see the authentic parts of the Medina. The guides were great fun and very knowledgeable . Nice small group too

    Fantastic Time!!

    Snow_R, Nov 2023
    We had such a fantastic time riding bikes through the busy streets of the Medina and the souks! It was exhilarating sharing the streets with cars, bikes, motor bikes, people, horse carriages and donkey carts! Our guide was fantastic and so informative, definitely a highlight of our time in Marrakesh!
