Should you do a quad or a buggy in the Agafay Desert — or both? Both are guided off-road drives on the same stone desert, 40 minutes from Marrakech, but they feel different: a quad (ATV) you ride solo and lean into the terrain; a buggy seats two side-by-side under a roll cage, so you can share the drive. Quad biking starts from around €30 and a buggy from around €50; doing both in one session is the ultimate half-day for adrenaline fans.
Quad vs buggy: which should you pick?
Choose the quad if you want to ride alone and feel every bump; it is nimble and great for confident first-timers. Choose the buggy if you are a couple, travelling with a teen, or simply want to share the drive and stay a little more comfortable. Can’t decide? Many people do a quad session and a buggy session back-to-back, then finish with a camel ride at sunset.
How the combo works
A typical half-day: private transfer from your riad, a safety briefing and gear, your quad and buggy sessions with a mint-tea break, then the transfer back — or add a camp lunch and pool to make it a full day.
What’s included & the price

See the ready-made quad, buggy & camel day, or message us to build a quad + buggy session for your group.
Who it suits
Great for friends, couples and families with teens. The buggy is the easier option if you’d rather not drive solo; the quad is the pick for hands-on riders. Younger children can ride along in the buggy with an adult driver where allowed.
Good to know
- Wear closed shoes, sunglasses and a scarf against the dust.
- Late afternoon is best — cooler, and you can finish at sunset.
- Bring your licence if required for the buggy; guides confirm on the day.
