About this activity

Choose from a morning or afternoon buggy tour then, following a pickup from your Marrakech hotel, travel out of the city to the snow-capped peaks of the surrounding desert. Life ticks by at an altogether slower pace in the rugged desert outside bustling Marrakech, with ancient palm groves and welcoming Berber villages to explore.

Arrive at base camp and take the time to master the controls of your quad bike during a safety briefing. Then, after receiving all the protective gear you need, follow your guide along the dusty dirt tracks crisscrossing the desert and head off into the wilderness. Travel over rocky terrain and dry riverbeds to wild palm groves, and admire ancient volcanic formations in the landscape around you. Your guide will keep a close eye on your group’s speed to ensure the tour remains safe and enjoyable for everybody.

As the sun moves across the sky changing the desert hues through ocher and soft crimson, pull over with your guide in a traditional Berber village and enjoy a warm welcome in a local household. Replenish lost energy with a snack of hot pancakes and a pot of fresh Moroccan tea, and enjoy a little conversation with your hosts.

When it’s time to wave a fond farewell to the Berber villagers, hop back aboard your buggy and travel back to base for the onward journey to your Marrakech hotel, where your tour will come to an end.

Please note: Children aged 6 to 15 can participate as passengers. Drivers must be aged 16 and older. Each buggy is suitable for two people. If you require 2 vehicles for 2 people it's advisable to make 2 separate bookings.

Fantastic experience, really enjoyed the buggy tour. Good amount of training and time in the desert, followed by water breaks and a berber village visit. Would have been nice if the transport to the desert was air conditioned as it was not climate controlled as described, and extremely hot.

This was one of the highlights of my trip! My daughter drove a quad bike, while I was in a dune buggy. Our guide was wonderful! He made sure we were safe, and guided us through the desert toward the Atlas mountains. We had a nice Berber snack at a Berber village. The most exciting part of the tour was the ride up and down the sides of some dunes! It was so much fun!

Awesome day doing the dune buggy. It was really hot on the day and got quite dirty but I would definitively recommend. It was really really fun and the trip only had 2 other people with us on the day. Guide and team was very helpful. Team leader was brilliant and a really joyful cheerful guy. Food at the berber house was nice and was a good rest. The guys really take care of your safety and understand that. I would suggest to maybe have a room with AC and better seating for when people arrive as was slightly uncomfortable and sweating because of the heat a lot before even starting!
