The Marrakech Atlas Etape Cycling Package has an incredible beginning. Mike McHugo founder of Kasbah Toubkal, Education For All and other great ventures contacted Saif of AXS with his idea of a cycling sportive that benefits Education For All. AXS was going to start doing cycling sportives so a friendship started. Soon after that the Marrakech Atlas Etape was formed. Saif, Mike and others put forth an effort to grow this event……

After a couple of years of hard work and fine tuning the Marrakech Atlas Etape has grown for enriching lives in so many ways. It was featured in the UK’s telegraph as one of the six best cycling sportives of 2015. It’s something Mike and Saif are proud of and it’s awesome. Join us for The Day or join us for the 3, 4, or 7 night cycling holiday in support of Education for All. Held every year the last Sunday of April. Join us for a lifetime experience.
