About this activity
Quad biking Agadir style means leaving the beach resorts behind and heading into the countryside, where rocky tracks, dry riverbeds and argan forests wait. This guided tour lasts about 2.5 hours in total and includes roughly 1.5 hours behind the handlebars of your own quad.
You are collected from your hotel in Agadir, Taghazout, Tamraght or Anza and driven to the quad base. There you meet your guide, put on a helmet and goggles, and get a safety briefing before the engines start. No driver's license is needed, because the ride follows off-road trails rather than public roads.
On the trail you pass through Berber villages and see traditional mud-brick houses and rural daily life. Higher points open up wide views over the countryside and out to the Atlantic Ocean. Later you stop for Moroccan mint tea and sweet snacks, then ride back to the base.
The tour suits first-timers and more experienced riders who want some off-road thrills and a look at the area around Agadir. Wear clothes you don't mind getting dusty.
