Quad or buggy?
- Quad: more freedom and adrenaline. Choose a 1-person quad (€50/hour) or share one with a partner (€80/hour).
- Buggy: side-by-side seats, a roll cage and more stability — ideal for couples (€120/hour) or families and friends (4 seats, €300/hour).
Is it safe?
Yes, when done properly. You always ride with a local guide who knows where the soft sand and steep faces are. We give a short briefing first and adapt the route to your level.
Best time
Late afternoon is perfect: cooler temperatures and the golden light before sunset. In summer, ride early in the morning.
What to wear
- Closed shoes and long sleeves.
- Sunglasses and a scarf or turban against the sand — we will show you how to tie it.
Combine it with a camel ride and a night in the desert camp. All Merzouga prices: things to do in Merzouga.
