Top ride - This excursion was one of the most beautiful experiences of our stay in Morocco. The guide picked us up in front of the hotel, on arrival we had a short briefing on the use of the quads and on safety measures, then we started a long quad trip followed by a photo break (special dedication to our guide who took our photos with real involvement). We then took the circuit back to the camp, where we could rest and enjoy a traditional tea and snack, then set off on the quad bike back to base. We were brought back to the hotel 3 hours later. I highly recommend this activity, my first time on a quad is just memorable. Go for it!

Superb sunset in Agafay by quad - Very good activity with great value for money. I had a pleasant time, thanks to Fouad who guided us throughout the walk and took our photos. And thank you to Youssef, the driver, who took care of picking us up from the hotel accompanied by his good humor. After a long time on the quad, we were able to relax over tea and some snacks before returning to the hotel.
