Stories from travels in Morocco

On a motorbike from the Czech Republic to Morocco. From Prague to Marrakech. Current course on the interactive map.

The goal is clear, to reach France from the Czech Republic in one go. But one cannot imagine what can go wrong with such a simple plan.

First time in France. First French meal. Driving and working. McDonald's the oasis of the internet.

From Mylhous to Lyon. Slovak Krušovice, cheese, baguettes and the history of French hostility.

I arrived in Lyon, and because of a sudden cold, I decided to stay a few days... And in the end, I'm very glad I did.

The passage of a tornado and a sandstorm, the expulsion of the Pope and the iconic Pont de Gard bridge.

Séte is a small seaside town in the south of France. The atmosphere here is wonderful, romantic, peaceful...

From France I get to Spain. I drive around Barcelona like it's not a breeze and I'm heading to Tarragona.

From Tarragona it's smooth sailing all the way to Valencia, where I'm lucky to...

From Valencia I head to Cartagena, where I enjoy the view of a beautiful sunset against a mountainous background, a whale (also just its background) and finally a marble.

The beaches of Salobrena, Malaga and I'm already approaching my last stop in Europe... the penultimate chapter of the Spanish part of the trip.

Last days in Europe. Soon I'll board a motorbike on a ferry and move to another continent, my first time in Africa.

First day in Morocco, first day in Africa, first night in Moroccan accommodation. First warning of thieves, hashish, the capture of a grandmother and a maze in the centre of Tetuán.

The first night in Morocco, wandering the streets of the medina, Moroccan markets and the generosity of the locals.

The adventure in Morocco continues. I reach the blue city of Chefchaouen.

Meknes - a city in mist and the first marriage proposal and the beginning of Ramadan.

I just spent the night in Meknes and now I'm heading to Casablanca. A city that precedes great expectations thanks to the film.

The main objective of the expedition is here. Marrakech. Ramadan is already in full swing and there was a lot of concern about travel, food and accommodation during this holiday...

And we're already 2. Maya arrived at the airport in Marrakech and for the next 2,5 weeks we will discover Morocco together.

The next stop after Marrakech is Ait Ben Haddou. An iconic place thanks to its locations, popular especially among filmmakers and one of the TOP places on our Morocco tour.

Ourzazate is the city of a thousand films, there's the Atlas Film Studio and... and then nothing. Similarly, the next destination, Zagora, surprises us with its hidden magical oasis.

We set off on a motorbike from Zagora towards the final destination of Merzouga, a town sitting just before the Sahara Desert. One of the more challenging journeys due to the desert storm we had to ride through.

Finally we are at the Sahara, just outside the wall of our accommodation there is only the desert with no end in sight and camels parked next to palm trees. The trip to the desert can begin, but before that, a story about how I got to drive a motorbike.

We're heading into the desert. Camel paws are wading through the boiling sand and we are swinging on their humps 🐫. We are about to experience one of the most epic sunsets, a Bedouin musical performance and an overnight stay in the desert where the stars shine like nowhere else.
