Quad Biking in Marrakech: Palmeraie vs Agafay, Prices and Safety Tips
Planning to go quad biking in Marrakech? Compare the Palmeraie and the Agafay desert, see what's included, what to wear, safety tips and approximate prices.
About an hour of quad biking in the Agafay desert at sunset, then mint tea, a Moroccan dinner and a live show at a desert camp. Hotel pickup included.
Quad biking, dinner and a show in the Agafay desert, about 40 km south-west of Marrakech. The Agafay is a stony plateau of rolling ochre hills with the High Atlas on the horizon, only a 45-minute drive from the city.
After hotel pickup and a welcome mint tea, you get your helmet and a short briefing, then ride a quad bike for about an hour on desert tracks behind your guide, finishing as the sun goes down. No experience is needed.
At the camp, dinner is served: Moroccan salads, a tagine and fruit or pastries. The evening ends around the campfire with a live show of traditional music, drums and folk dancing before the transfer back to Marrakech.
