Activity description

Explore Agafay desert and mountain ranges on this amazing quad bike adventure. This exhilarating excursion takes place just outside of Marrakesh, across dry, arid landscapes and winding gravel roads.  

Dunes & Desert offers you a quad ride during a half day or a full day, around the most beautiful cities of Morocco, which takes you through surrealist landscapes: rocky hills at the foot of the High Atlas mountains overlooking the city, passage along the wadis (dry river beds, typical of North Africa)...

For half a day or a full day, go on the tracks of the AGAFAY desert, located 45 minutes far from the ochre city Marrakech, with a specialized team that will ensure your safety. This is an opportunity for you to discover the authentic Morocco: between Berber villages, Oasis, rocky desert and the breathtaking view of the Atlas Mountains.

You will discover the thousand-year-old dwellings and traditional hammams of the region. Among the hidden treasures of this arid land is a symphony of tastes, flavors and countless shades of ochre constantly changing in the light.

A break is planned at the inhabitant's house, to stretch your legs and enjoy the Berber hospitality with a real mint tea or a tajine !

Depending on the time available, the guides will take pleasure in showing experienced riders their favorite tracks and spots!

A moment frozen in time that will surely be one of the highlights of your stay. So don't hesitate any longer!
