The Challenge
Taste the flavors of North Africa during your visit of Morocco’s southern region. Meet its people, sample its food, and enjoy the magnificence of this ancient kingdom’s scenery. This amazing desert adventure rally will take you from the sands of the Sahara to the peaks of the Atlas mountains all the way to the Atlantic coast.
From the streets of Marrakesh to the endless dunes of Merzouga this is no simple road trip but a true challenge to provide you and your team with an adventure to remember.
The Grand Moroccan Escapade is a “minimal assistance” rally. This means once we're on the road it's all going to be down to you. But we've organized a complete framework on which you can safely hang your own unique adventure. We'll also help you to meet new people, discover new places and overcome any obstacles along the way. So come the finish your achievement will not be spoilt by us having mothered you all along the way.
Before the end of our desert adventure rally you’ll have to cover 2000 km of highways, roads, tracks and dunes. We'll leave it up to you and your team to decide how best to tackle them and where you'll find the most fun on the Moroccan Escapade. We’ll give you a daily route, which you can follow (or not) including the best highlights of the day.
