A morning breeze off the Atlantic threads through narrow streets as riders mount eco-friendly bikes at 11:00 AM and push away from the river-lined quays of Rabat. The guide sets the pace and the city opens up: the Kasbah of the Oudaias unfurls whitewashed houses above a planted garden, the Hassan Tower rises with unfinished grandeur, and the medina hums with market voices and spices. The ocean tempts with salt-slick air; the Bou Regreg seems to dare you to look beyond the shore.

Wear a helmet and visible clothing
City streets can be busy; a helmet and a bright layer improve safety and make you easier for drivers to see.
Expect cobbles in the medina
Slow down and use lower gears on cobbled lanes — the surface can be uneven and slippery when wet.
Bring a refillable water bottle
Hydration is included but having your own bottle lets you top up between stops and reduces plastic waste.
Lock your bike for stops
Use provided locks at cafés or sites; the medina is busy and unattended bicycles can be moved.
