They really need to be guarded.
We have driven many tours but Morocco was really the most beautiful. I think it is possible with an M3W but then the roads have to be scouted properly.


I've never seen any kids throwing stones at us in any of the trips we've done shocked2 Not a good experience, and even less with a classic car such a C-Type. I can imagine your anger swear

About having the cars guarded at night, I absolutely agree. I would never organize a tour in Morocco without being sure that every night the 3 Wheelers will be safe. That is also a good reason to have an escort van driven by a local (or better two) so we can stop to have lunch or a coffe with peace of mind knowing that someone is looking at the cars, so no one is dismantling them for a souvenir... I'll try to convince the group about that oldgit

Of all the roads we're considering, only the R203 (the Tizi n' Test pass) is the one I haven't driven in the past years. Precisely because being on a large V-Class Mercedes van, it's not the kind of road you'll choose. But Ana María's partner will check it to be sure it's OK for us to drive it. The rest of the roads, we've being on them many times these last years and they're all Ok. Even improved from year to year. I guess when we'll be there the Tizi n' Tichka pass road works will be finished and we'll have beautiful fresh tarmac drive
