I'm preparing a trip to Morocco for the end of September, maybe we can share part of it. Could you share your trip plan?

Hi Guys, I'm living the dream cruising around Romania at the moment but will be riding through to Gibraltar for a social event (which concludes on 3rd October). After that I'll be taking a ferry to MOROCCO!
I'm riding my trusty f650 Dakar and am pretty much up for anything, though not planning a desert ride on this trip 'cos only have hard luggage. Two to three weeks seems about right to me, though I don't have an end date.
Keen to hear from anyone on a bike that wants to ride Morocco in October.
Cheers, Gordon

Not on a bike but look out for a bunch of Land Cruisers who will be happy to help if you have any issues, or just have a yak and a cold one we'll be mostly off road so a bit unlikely but you never know. May even be on the same ferry as you!
Have fun, ride safe

Hi guys, I am planning a trip Morocco around the same dates (sept/oct). Besides the cities that badou24 mentioned I want to visit also Merzouga and Ouarzazate. Hello Gordon M, I am in Romania in the city of Cluj-Napoca, if you are close-by we could meet up. Cheers

Hey guys
I'm from Belgium and have 16days in august/september to make a trip. Have been to Tarifa and Gibraltar in the past but didn't have the international passport at that time to go to Morocco. Now I have :-)
Would love to go, only I cannot go offroad to much because I have a streetbike at the moment..
Grtz

Hi emilm89 and Keith, I tried sending both you guys private messages a few days ago to discuss Morocco but no response. Maybe the messages didn't send? Please let me know.
Cheers, Gordon

October anyone?
Hi everyone. I heard back from Keith (badou24) and he said he has cancelled his plan to ride to Morocco. So is there anyone else out there keen to take 2-3 weeks from around 3rd October to ride Morocco with me?
Cheers, Gordon

I'm going a bit early (last week of September), during the Eid al-Adha. Two years ago I had a breakdown during this festivity and everything was closed, now I want to go back and have a better time .

Marokko starting around Sept. 12th
Hello everybody
I'm a young swiss student with a Tenere and I bought this bike dreaming about going to marokko. Now I met a couple of maroccans on a train and I have a couple of weeks time to visit them (Marrakesh). As I have only little experience and have never been to Africa I do not want to go alone. I was already giving up my plans when I remembered this forum.
I would like to take the ferry from either Sète or Barcelona around the 12th to Melilla and make a tour for around 10 days orso. I am flexible about the dates and route, just have to be back in Switzerland October 1st.
Anyone concrete about his travel plans?

Anybody interested to join?
