Others can opt to rent dune buggies and get a guided tour in the dunes. You can also choose to relax by the pool or wander around the hotel.

The second part of the day, you will ride on brand new tarmac, large roads that feel like you’ve been handed free pass on a racetrack. Our last leg will see us descend to Marrakech and head to the workshop to return the bikes, before you’re transported back to the hotel. Meet in the evening for a memorable farewell dinner in town.
