Itinerary

1. 1

   15:00 · Pick-up in Marrakech

   Your driver meets you at your hotel or riad, or at the nearest square or gate if your riad sits in a car-free lane. The exact time follows the season's sunset and is confirmed in advance on WhatsApp. From the city you drive south-west for about 45 minutes in an air-conditioned vehicle to reach the camp on the Agafay plateau.

2. 2

   15:45 · Welcome tea and safety briefing

   At the camp a glass of mint tea and some snacks are waiting. Your guide then hands out helmets and explains how the quads work, how to brake and steer, and how the group rides together on the tracks. Quad drivers must be at least 16 years old, while younger children can ride as passengers behind an adult, so the whole family can come along.

3. 3

   16:15 · Quad ride at sunset

   You set off behind your guide for around an hour on the desert trails, climbing gentle slopes and crossing open flats with the Atlas peaks on the horizon. There are stops for photos along the way, and the ride is planned so that you finish as the sun dips behind the hills and the whole plateau turns warm shades of orange and pink.

4. 4

   17:30 · Free time and dinner at camp

   Back at the camp you can relax, wash off the dust and take pictures as the sky darkens. Around 18:00 dinner is served: a choice of Moroccan salads, a tagine slowly cooked over the coals and fruit or pastries for dessert, with water included. Let us know when booking if you need a vegetarian meal so the kitchen can prepare it.

5. 5

   19:15 · Live show by the campfire

   Once dinner is over, the musicians gather around the fire for a show of traditional Moroccan and Berber music, with drums, songs and folk dancing. It is a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, and guests are always welcome to join in the dancing. Bring your jacket to the fire, as the desert gets chilly after dark for most of the year.

6. 6

   20:30 · Return to Marrakech

   At the end of the show you climb back into the vehicle for the 45-minute drive across the plain. You are dropped at your hotel or riad at around 21:15, roughly five and a half hours after you set off, with time to spare for a late mint tea on a rooftop or simply an early night after the ride.
