Main summary

Key takeaways

Summary of the video (Morocco trip cost breakdown)

  • The speakers introduce a follow-up series (“Trail Blazers”) that shows what happens on a big Morocco trip, focusing mainly on the planning and budgeting—things you typically don’t see.
  • They explain they couldn’t get enough YouTube support to travel as much as they’d like, so they still return to normal life/work between episodes.

Total trip cost (group of five)

  • Using the “Settle Up” app, they estimate the trip at ~210,000 CZK total for the group.
  • That’s ~42,000 CZK per person for 12 days “all-in” (for five people).

Flights / tickets

  • They note that there were no flights handled directly through Setlap.
  • The plane tickets were paid in advance by one of the members.

Motorcycle transport + flights approach

  • They fly with Riner.
  • They also use motobox services that include motorcycle transport.
  • Example given: a route from Spain (Malaga) into Morocco.
  • They mention a similar option exists, but the price may differ.

Ferry

  • They used a longer ferry route, which ended up cheaper than the faster option they compared against.
  • They stress that ferries/transport are likely the biggest expense, “almost half” of the total budget.

Lodging

  • They typically booked hotels day-by-day or near-term (often via Booking or local arrangements).
  • Many stays included breakfast.
  • They often negotiated that dinner would be included as well.
  • For the first couple of days, they booked lodging in advance.

Border timing / travel pace

  • They emphasize it’s better not to rush at the start, because arrivals and border processing can take time.
  • They also mention reaching the border early morning and waiting there.

Mobile data / SIM cards

  • They bought Moroccan SIM/data plans right across the border.
  • Typical data amounts: ~12–20+ GB, depending on the plan.
  • Very low cost: about 170–200 dirhams.
  • Activation required receiving and entering an SMS code, which could take time.

Food and daily rhythm

  • Dinner: often tajine; after several days it becomes repetitive, though they still enjoy it.
  • Breakfast: described as relatively consistent (e.g., bread/marmalade and similar items).
  • Lunch: often chosen in nature rather than cities; they sometimes buy supplies and eat outside.
  • They also discuss routine spending like coffee/cake stops and water purchases.

Refueling / fuel costs

  • For two motorbikes, they typically refueled about 10 liters total per session.
  • Fuel cost estimate: roughly ~30 CZK per liter (based on their experience).
  • They ride a lot—around 300 km per day—so they say eating out more often is less feasible.

What isn’t included (and insurance notes)

Not included in the trip price:

  • Vaccinations
  • Insurance
  • Some protection services

Insurance concern:

  • Standard insurance may not apply well because they ride off-road/unpaved routes.
  • They recommend proper motorcycle/off-road coverage.

Gear / devices rental

  • They mention renting/using communication/navigation devices (e.g., Garmin / radio-style equipment).
  • Some costs were covered via Settle Up, and/or equipment was rented after splitting into subgroups so each subgroup had coverage.

Alcohol and “tourist pricing” reality

  • Alcohol availability and price vary by location, and it can be limited.
  • They describe situations where tourists pay more (e.g., a premium for beer when access is harder).
  • Overall, they felt the trip costs stayed reasonable because they didn’t drink heavily.

Problems during the trip

  • They report no major issues:
    • no serious motorcycle breakdowns
    • no punctures
    • no health emergencies
  • Because of that, they didn’t learn much about rescue/assistance costs.

Final takeaway

  • Their headline figure again: ~42,000 CZK per person total (all-in).
  • They invite viewers to comment on what their Morocco trips cost.
