Private Agafay Desert Off-Road ATV Quad Adventure: Half-Day Tour

Soak up the cool and fresh mountain air as you leave the city and on arrival at the quad bike start point, listen to a safety briefing and driving instructions. You will be provided with equipment, including a helmet, gloves, goggles and a cheich (turban-style scarf). Then, once settled on your vehicle, take off behind your guide on a 2-hour tour, traveling at a pace that suits you and in a friendly atmosphere. Follow dusty country trails and drive into the famous Agafay Desert and Turtle Valley, soaking up views of the snow-capped High Atlas peaks and majestic Lake Takerkoust on route. Rumble through eucalyptus forests and Berber villages, and stop to enjoy a traditional Moroccan mint tea. Finally, before returning to the start point, stop on a high plateau that commands wonderful views over the blue waters of the 4.3-mile (7-kilometer) lake spread at the foot of the Atlas range. Be sure to bring your camera: it’s a must on this trip!
