Marrakech City Bike Tours

A few local firms offer guided tours by bicycle. Cycling in the city can be slightly nerve-wracking, but you can also do cycling tours of the Palmery.

One of the best city bike tours is offered by Pikala, who bring in and reconditioned used bikes from the Netherlands and train up young Marrakeshis as tour guides. They are based on Rue Riad el Arous at 31.633697, -7.992084. The latest Tripadvisor reviews of Pikala are here.

Other bicycle tours are offered by Marrakech City Bike Tour, whose office at 44 Rue Tariq Ibn Ziad is in the same compound as Hotel Toulousain and Café du Livre (Tripadvisor reviews here), and by AXS, located on Rue Fatima al Fihria in the Sidi Yousef Ben Ali neighbourhood east of Agdal Gardens (31.607467, -7.968785; Tripadvisor reviews here).
