The Buggy Trip Marrakech experience — buggy & quad in the Agafay Desert
Our story
Buggy Trip Marrakech has been operating since 2019. A local team, a fixed base at Station Afriquia on the Amizmiz road, and the same rule from day one: a guide on every tour, vehicles serviced between rides, and the price you're quoted up front.

The Agafay Desert (and why not the Sahara)
Unlike Merzouga's sand dunes (10 hours by road), the Agafay sits about 25 km from Marrakech (roughly 25 min by car): a stony desert of ochre plateaus and dry oueds, with the snow-capped Atlas as backdrop for much of the year. It's the right terrain for a half-day buggy or quad tour without spending two days of your trip in transit.

Frequently asked questions
Is the ride private?
Yes — every ride is 100% private. Your group gets its own dedicated guide (or guides) and rides at its own pace; we never merge separate groups together.
How long is a half-day or full day?
The half-day includes up to 3h of driving (about 5h on site with photo stops and a meal). The full day: start between 8 and 9am, return between 4 and 5pm, up to 5h of driving.
Do I need to know how to drive?
No, our guides brief you on driving before you set off. Driving a buggy requires a valid driving licence; quads remain open from age 16.
Is there a minimum age?
A valid driving licence is required to drive a buggy. Quads can be driven from age 16, accompanied by an adult. Children can ride as passengers from age 6 on 2-seat vehicles.
What if the weather is bad?
In dangerous conditions we reschedule free of charge to a date of your choice.
Is transfer included?
Transfer is not included. We can arrange it through partner drivers as a paid extra, on request (price confirmed with your quote, Medina, Hivernage, Guéliz). Otherwise we recommend a ride-hailing app — usually simpler.
