Hamza was an amazing tour guide. We had the best ride all over Marrakech and learned a lot. We felt very safe and it was such a unique experience. 10/10 would do it again and would recommend anyone that comes to Morocco do this too!

One of the absolute highlights of the trip. Such an enjoyable way to experience Marrakech absolutely do the three hour tour. It flies by both literally and figuratively. Many great stops along the way.

Michael_Y, Apr 2026
Fantastic experience and a great way to vexplore the city with a 5 year old. Our guide Hamza was fantastic, kind to my daughter, knowledgeable and adapted the tour to our pace.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Hi Michael, 5 years old are the best on a sidecar (I own one myself - unless it's the other way round) and I get my kicks seeing this little human's reactions on every ride. We hope the rest of your stay went well and wish you a safe return home

Just do it. Brilliant way...

Louise_S, Feb 2026
Just do it. Brilliant way to see Marrakesh and unlike every other tour we took, didn’t try to sell us anything else.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you Louise, you guys were tons of fun and we do hope that you'll be back! Enjoy the rest of your stay in Marrakech!

Unforgettable Marrakech Adventure on a Vintage Sidecar with Ben

Katie_F, Aug 2025
The 3-hour private sidecar ride with Ben was one of the coolest things we did in Marrakech. Riding in a vintage sidecar through the back streets of the city gave us a perspective you just can’t get on a regular tour. Ben was knowledgeable, fun, and showed us hidden spots and local life that most tourists never see. Traveling this way was unique, comfortable, and safe. The tour felt tailor-made, letting us explore the city at our pace while learning about Moroccan culture. Definitely a must-do for anyone looking for an insider’s Marrakech experience!

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Thank you Katie for your very nice comment, Ben is a great insider and it is a pleasure to read that he delivered to the level of your expectations. See you soon on three wheels in Morocco or in France where we also operate wine and food tours!

Great sidecar tour around...

MICHAEL_B, Mar 2025
Great sidecar tour around Marakesh. Usama and Antoine were our guides. The most fun was buzzing through the Medina in tight quarters but the whole experience was excellent. We didn’t have any preconceptions of what the tour works be like and that made it even better.

Response from Host, Mar 2025

Thank you Michael for your kind words :) The concept of our rides is that there is no preconceived idea of what we're going to do, we adapt to the centers of interests and expectations of our passengers so it's a pleasure to read that the boys delivered to the level of your expectations :) thanks again for your trust and safe travels!

Fun sidecar tour of Marrakesh

Julie_L, Mar 2025
This was an excellent introduction to Marrakesh and such fun on the sidecar. Our guide Hamza was a local and very knowledgeable, friendly and great company

Response from Host, Mar 2025

Thank you Julie for your kind words, Hamza says you guys were tons of fun and we hope you'll be back for more :) Until then, safe travels.

Marrakech Side car trip

Ben_F, Mar 2025
very informative and fun. you see a lot! Our guide could not do enough for us. Bring a jumper if you go in the morning.

Response from Host, Mar 2025

Thank you Ben, glad to read that you guys had fun! Good advice for the jumper, we provide blankets but that's just for the sidecar passenger, not the rear passenger :) Thank you for choosing us and safe travels!

Best way to discover the...

Elvis_B, Jan 2025
Best way to discover the city, Abdel was a very friendly, knowledgeable and funny guide. A bit pricey, but worth it! Book it if you're on the fence! We learnt a lot and saw a lot, through a very unique experience.

Response from Host, Jan 2025

Thank you Elvis, we do come a a budget and really hope that we deliver good value for money. Safe travels and thank you for trusting us with your time (and money) in Marrakech

Great Sidecar trip

Alison_H, Oct 2024
A great fun trip, zipping around the medina and outskirts of Marrakech, nothing was too much trouble, and lots of information about local sites and inside information into life in Marrakech

Response from Host, Oct 2024

Thank you Alison for your review and for choosing us for part of your Marrakech adventure, we hope you'll be back for more! 🏍️🌴☀️ Until then, safe travels!

No 1 thing to do in Marrakesh!

Alison_M, Oct 2024
Exhilarating without being at all dangerous. Atlas, our guide was a gentleman and so informative. His English was perfect. We had a blast! Definitely up there as no 1 thing to do in Marrakesh.

Response from Host, Oct 2024

Hi Alison! Thank you very much for your kind words, reviews like yours mean the world to us! Atlas is a great insider and personality and it’s a privilege to have him on the team; great to read that he delivered to the level of your expectations! Safe travels and let us know if/when you’re back in town! 🏍️🌴☀️

Local insights Galore!

Sumeet_S, Jul 2024
Our guide was very knowledgeable and shared with us local insights into the culture and the growth of the city! The side car was very comfortable and the three hours, which included a tea stop in a local riad, went by quickly.

Response from Host, Jul 2024

Thank you for your kind words and for taking a moment to write them, we love reading positive feedback and reckon we should make a book out of them. Safe travels and do let us know if/when you're back in town (or in france where we also operate)!

Awesome.

Karen_B, May 2024
This was most definitely the highlight of our trip to Marrakesh. Nabil was so knowledgeable and kind and took to places we would never had seen on the normal “tourist” trail. If you do one trip, do this one.

Response from Host, May 2024

Thank you Karen for your uper nice words, Nabil is a great insider and it's great to read that you guys connected! Safe travels and do let us know if/when you're back in town!

Freedom Views

Pamela_G, May 2024
The ability to view Marrakech & its surrounds via traveling on a motorcycle & sidecar. Our guide Benjamin is a fantastic guy who is a brilliant driver ( makes nervous passengers feel at ease) & is a credit to the Tourism Industry.

Response from Host, May 2024

hahaha loved that last line where you say benjamin is a credit to the tourism industry. We'll take the compliment, thank you so much! Thanks for choosing us and please enjoy the rest of your stay if you're still in Marrakech!

Traveling By Sidecar Back in Time Through Marrakech

Noor_K, May 2024
Had a wonderful afternoon with Safouane traveling on sidecar throughout the streets of Marrakech. You feel as though you step back in time. Appreciate that we started out with Safouane asking if there is anything we want to see in particular, which is special that Marrakech Insiders is able to tailor make the experience for you.

Response from Host, May 2024

Thanks Noor for your kind words! We try hard to take our passengers as guests and not clients, I'm glad to read that Safouane delivered there and I hope you'll keep a long lasting good memory of your time with us! Safe travels!

Utterly brilliant!

Nina_C, May 2024
Honestly one of the best tours we have ever done in a city. And at age 59 we have done a lot! Atlas, our driver, was super friendly, knowledgeable and made us feel safe. Really interesting journey to see parts of Marrakesh that are off the tourist trail. Highly recommend this tour but make sure your travel insurance will cover you! My policy didn’t so we had to use a different insurer.

Response from Host, May 2024

Thank you Nina for this great feedback, Atlas will surely appreciate it as much as we did! I'd love to hear about your insurance company and how you dealt with this as I wasn't aware of such possible situation, id you don't mind, could you drop me a line on thomas at insidersexperience dotcom please? This might help me fix this for future travelers! Safe travels and thanks again for choosing us!

So fun!

Lori_C, Apr 2024
Such a fun way to see Marrakech. Nabil not only took me to see amazing sights, he also shared stories that made it so much more special. He was knowledgeable and provided useful tips. Loved this experience.

Response from Host, May 2024

Thank you Lori for your very kind words, it's great tp read that Nabil delivered to the level of your expectations :) Enjoy the rest of you're still around and do let us know if/when you're back in Marrakech, there's so much more to see! Until then, safe travels!

A wonderful to see an amazing city

Melissa_B, Apr 2024
Safouane was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and a genuine conversationalist. We very much enjoyed our excursion with him.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Thank you Melissa for your kind words and for making time to post that review, this means the world to us! Great to read that Safouane delivered to the level of your expectations (he just walked into the office and says hi!) Enjoy the rest of your stay if you're still around and let us know if/when you're back in town for more adventures! Until then, safe travels!

Must do tour!

Julie_D, Apr 2024
Literally one of the best guided trips I’ve ever been on! Safouane, our driver, was incredibly knowledgeable and clearly loves his home city. He showed us all the parts of Marrakech you wouldn’t find on your own or with a city guide. We felt very safe with him and loved being able to experience the sights, smells (some not so good!) and sounds of the city. If you do one trip, do this one!! Well worth the money.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Thank you Julie for your very kind words, that is one very positive review! Safouane is a rock star and it's a blessing to have him on the team! Enjoy the rest of your stay if you're still in Morocco and do let us know if/when you're back in town, there's so much more to explore! Until then, safe travels!

Adventure just minutes away from the city

Fiorella_B, Mar 2024
Amazing experience, a must in Marrakech, worth the price. The tour is a fun, adventurous, site seeing experience. The guide was incredible showing us the various sites, explaining the culture and answering questions. The 3 hour tour is a perfect amount of time that allows you to see several sites around Marrakech. You visit sites ( northern medina, gueliz, palm tree national park, etc) that are not usually visited when you complete tours of the medina for example. The tour ends with a visit to the palm tree desert (national park) 10 minutes next to the medina. Such a unique site that is not visited in several other tours. I recommend the tour for families ( older children) and couples, a fun adventurous tour in central Marrakech.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Grazie Fiorella, your review means the world to us and we truly appreciate you taking the time to post a comment online, this really helps us gain exposure! Safe travels and let us know if/when you're back in town, there's so much more to explore!

Fantastic and highly recommended

Nick_W, Mar 2024
Mounir was amazing. We said we would like to see tge mountains and that's exactly what we got! Amazing trip on mountain roads and scenery to die for. Couldn't do much better. May even buy a bike & sidecar when home! 😂

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Thank you nick, you made our day by saying you might buy a sidecar :) Thank you so much for choosing us, Mounir says you were tons of fun! Safe travels and send us a photo once you have a sidecar too! You may end up launching Insiders in the US !

Best way to see Marrakesh!

Anita_B, Mar 2024
Ben drove us on a three hour tour of Marrakech that is not to be missed. Fun to cruise through the busy streets in the sidecar of a motorcycle. Knowledgeable and friendly guides. Felt safe and got to see so much of the city.

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Thank you Anita for your kind words, for taking a moment to post a review and for choosing us to experience Marrakech from a different perspective. We hope you'll be back for more! Until then, safe travels.

Just book it! Fantastic!

Claire_C, Mar 2024
What a fantastic tour which we would highly recommend. Abdel was very friendly and knowledgeable. He showed us all around Marrakech and different neighbourhoods where tourists wouldn’t necessarily normally venture. We loved every minute and learnt a lot. A superb experience.

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Thank you Claire for your great words and kind support! Abdel is one of our most recent team members and already a star in the making. We hope you'll enjoy the rest of your stay in Marrakech! We also operate in France btw, just saying :)

Excellent trip. Excellent guide.

Tracy_S, Mar 2024
Mahmoud was our insider and he was excellent from start to finish. He was such a pleasant guy and was so helpful. He put us at ease from the start. He told us all about marrakech and the places we visited. The bike was amazing and the sidecar even better. We saw so many sites and areas we wouldn’t have seen. Mahmoud made it a really enjoyable morning. Thanks Mahmoud 😁

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Thank you for your very kind words Tracy and thank you for choosing us to explore Marrakech from a different perspective. Mahmoud is a great person and it's a pleasure to read that he delivered to the level of your expectations. Safe travels and do let us know if/when you're back in town, we'll be ready!

Brilliant trip and great fun. Very knowledgeable driver! Covered an area outside of the city and also some of the Medina. Also inside a Rhiad which was beautiful. Would definitely recommend this trip.

Fabulous side car tour of Marrakesh

Karen_S, Nov 2023
We had the most amazing time with Nabil, he is a very knowledgeable guide who spoke excellent English. He gave us lots of information as we rode around and answered any questions we had. The tour was everything I had hoped for and more. It took us to the Oasis and we weaved through the Medina, stopping for a glass of tea a lovely Rhiad. This is something totally different but well worth it, I definitely recommend it to everyone. Nabil thanks again and we wish you well.

Do not miss out on this experience!

Margaret_H, Nov 2023
Great experience would highly recommend! Our guide was born and raised in Marrakesh and told us local tips about the city. The ride was also very safe. Our guide provided us helmets and the ride was super comfortable and fun

Marrakesh Highlight

Fiona_K, Mar 2023
The bike was fun, funky and comfortable. The guide/driver Nabil made us feel safe on the roads, spoke excellent English and offered some great insights and anecdotes into Marrakesh and Morocco.
