The Honest Packing List for Motorcycle Touring in Morocco

What veterans actually pack — and what they leave at the hotel.

Sara B.Guide & gear specialist

Pack for the desert and the mountains in the same week. That is the trick.

Riding gear

  • Vented adventure jacket with thermal + waterproof liners
  • Two layers of long-sleeve merino
  • Mid-weight gloves + summer gloves
  • Touring boots (water-resistant)
  • Polarised sunglasses + clear inserts
  • Buff or shemagh — non-negotiable in the dust

Off-bike

  • Two pairs of light long trousers (Berber custom)
  • T-shirts (synthetic, dry overnight)
  • Sandals
  • Light fleece — the Atlas is cold at altitude even in July

Tools

We supply a full toolkit on every rental — including tire plugs, pump, and a spare clutch lever. You don't need to bring a thing. Just a multi-tool and a head-torch.
