- The Secret Ride - 3h (Price is per sidecar)

In the Medina's beautiful maze, through the ancient French neighborhood or in the mythical palm grove, Marrakech is full of surprises. A vivid flea market, secret gardens behind closed doors, old art deco buildings or khettaras in the palm grove are just a few of the many hidden treasures we will introduce you to on this unusual open-air ride.

----

Your Insider will meet you near "Bakery Café Taxi", boulevard Prince Moulay Abdallah. Share your expectations and specific requests while your insider introduces you, thanks to an old map, to both the geography of the city and your tailor-made itinerary. Adjust your helmet, put on your sunglasses and hop on. 

From the stunning art deco buildings, the once lively open-air cinema, the very first hotel built in 1918, the train station dating from 1941, the former Mines Counter or the old clock shop, we take you on an enchanting time-travel in the former French district known as 'Guéliz'. 

Drive through the city walls and discover the heart of the Medina while driving through remote neighborhoods where daily life seems to have stopped centuries ago. Whether the Kasbah district, a former fortress reserved for the employees of the Royal Palace, the Mellah, the former Jew neighborhood or the flea market in Bad El Khemiss taking place every Thursdays and Sundays, you will discover a rich, friendly and certainly unknown Marrakech. You can choose to enjoy a moment of quietness in a traditional Riad with a cup of mint tea before heading to the palm grove. 

Once a very fertile oasis, this piece of land, only known nowadays for its luxurious villas, used to give birth to the entire Tensift region more than a thousand years ago thanks to its ingenious underground irrigation systems. You could choose to make a short detour to an astonishing 1960s villa built by one of Yves Saint-Laurent's close friend or to a small remote village for a tea break. 

After this last stop, your insider will take you back to your hotel or any other place in downtown Marrakech.

NB: This itinerary is subject to change due to passenger's requests, holidays or weather conditions.
