    I watch way more motorcycle/travel content than is probably healthy, and I can say unequivocally that this is the best series I've seen in a VERY long time. You've taken us all along with you in a way that very few creators/producers manage to do. Well done, sir! Keep up the amazing work.

    O.M.G...I am loving this series! Just outstanding scenery and your editing skills are fantastic. Love your positive outlook and finding so many hospitable, friendly folks. That bike is a beast, and you handled it like a bad-ass! I just got done with Ep. 8 and now I'm wondering how the heck you got over those rocks! But I had to come back to this episode. This one is so, so beautiful. I could feel your love for the area. Well-done! Love it! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    Fantastic brings back so many memories. My wife n I did the camel trek from Erg Chebi and slept on blankets in the desert. We spent a night looking at shooting stars and the Milky way, it was awesome. That was 20 years ago and was the start of our adventures. Shame we didn't have Gopros. . Thanks.👍FB

    Rich, I don't know what it is, but these travel videos of yours...they just get me. I mean, if I might think long enough I could point out what exactly moves me, touches me...I don't quite konw how to say it in english, I'm just some middle aged bavarian bloke having a beer (or two, Andechser Doppelbock if someone cares) binging away this series and thinking "This lad and his Norway Series made look away from the Triumph Thruxton I wanted so bad when I got my motorcycle license eight years ago and got me into touring...". And I do not regret a thing. Well, except I have not made it to Norway yet and now you're giving me the Morocco fix. Great ;-)

    Takes me back. A few years ago we did a trip from Marrakech to Ouarzazate then undertaking a circular route taking in many of the visitor destinations including the Dades Gorge and Merzouga. The camel ride into the desert must have been one of the most painful experiences i have encountered :S. The camp was a bit more Spartan than your 5 star booking :) We got to sleep outside on a mattress under the stars. It must have been a bit warmer. Don't forget Morocco has a rich filming heritage.
