2-Hour Agafay Desert Buggy Tour from Marrakech

What To Expect On The 2-Hour Agafay Buggy Tour

Marrakech Agafay Buggy Tour

Departure From Marrakech

To get to the desert, you will not need to put in any effort of your own to make transport arrangements; your guide will see to it that you are collected from your accommodation. The way is made easy for anyone in Marrakech wanting a buggy tour of the Agafay Desert with this provision.

As one drives out of the city in the direction of Agafay the terrain begins to dry and open up. When you arrive, the guide will be on hand to put you in order for the ride.

Buggy Briefing

Before you take the wheel, there is a briefing to cover safety and how the controls work. No previous experience is required, so if you are unaccustomed to buggies, you can use the time to familiarise yourself with the vehicle and ask us any questions. Those who have driven before will still find value in it, for off-road is a different proposition than being on the road. We want to leave you at ease with the machine when the adventure commences.

The Agafay Landscape

The group will then set off on the trails. Do not expect the soft dunes of the Sahara here; Agafay is a stone desert with its plateaus and uneven tracks, which is what lends the tour its character. Your guide takes the lead, and you can give your attention to the views and to driving. In many ways, it is an exercise in exploration as much as covering ground. This is your opportunity to put in some time behind the wheel of a buggy in the Agafay Desert instead of being a mere passenger.

Stops For Photographs

You will come across vantage points on the route well suited to a photograph. Feel free to have your camera or phone to hand, but stow it in a case or bag when you are driving; dust is part and parcel of an off-road excursion.

A Bit Of Culture

We also like to put aside some time to immerse ourselves in the local culture. Dealing with the nomadic communities and their traditions will provide a depth to the day that a drive by itself cannot.

An Agafay Buggy Experience

For the traveler who would rather be involved in the journey than sit passively, this is an appealing choice. Being so close to Marrakech, one can relish the open country without the bother of planning a trip over several days. Two hours is sufficient to have a good time with the buggy and yet not be tied up all day, making it ideal for those with other commitments in Marrakech.

What You Pay And What Is Included

We prefer to be upfront about our prices so you do not encounter any surprises at the point of booking. The cost of the tour is €60 a head. An experienced guide, the professional buggy, all requisite safety equipment, your refreshments, any cultural interactions, and the round trip from where you are staying will be taken care of. The 2-hour Agafay tour is designed to have everything one needs for the experience, vehicle and transport included.

In Marrakech, there are plenty of desert activities to choose from; we would suggest you look beyond the headline number and see what is really on offer. Other operators put together their packages in different ways, with some variance in the fine print when it comes to riding time or if a cultural stop is part of the equation.

Agafay Buggy Tour: A Good Fit For The Uninitiated?

It is. You do not need to have been behind the wheel of a buggy before. First-timers can make themselves at home with the vehicle once the guide has gone over the controls. Those with more experience might want to ask him some questions about the route. Once you are off, drive as you like and let the guide set the pace; no sense in vying with the rest of them.

Attire For The Agafay

Specialist clothing is not called for. Make sure you are in something breathable and comfortable to allow for easy movement. In such an exposed environment as the desert, put on your sunglasses and apply sunscreen. You may wish to have a phone or camera to hand for a picture, but stow it away properly when driving. And as the off-road track is dusty, wear shoes and clothes that you are not fussed about soiling.

Is It Safe To Be Out In The Agafay Desert On A Buggy?

We make it our priority. A seasoned guide and the proper equipment will have you in good hands. We ask that you stay with the group and pay attention to what is put forward in the pre-drive briefing. There is no point in putting speed before responsible driving on such uneven ground. If there are any physical limitations or medical conditions to be aware of, we suggest you speak with us before making a booking. As for the weather, we monitor it closely and are not above canceling or rescheduling when safety is in question.
