Meeting & Preparation
Your adventure begins at our Merzouga Magic Quads base camp. After a warm welcome, our professional guides will brief you on safety and give you all the necessary equipment — helmet, gloves, and goggles. You’ll also receive a quick lesson on how to handle your quad bike safely, even if it’s your first time.
Cross the Majestic Dunes of Erg Chebbi
Start your day by riding across the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi, one of Morocco’s most stunning natural wonders. Feel the thrill as you climb and descend the sand hills, surrounded by breathtaking views of the Sahara. Your guide will lead you through safe and scenic trails that vary from soft sand to open desert plains.
Explore Desert Villages and Nomadic Life
After conquering the dunes, continue your journey through the Hamada (black rocky desert). Visit small Berber villages like Khamlia, known for its Gnawa music, or Hassi Labied, home to traditional desert gardens and ancient irrigation systems.
You’ll also stop by nomadic camps, where families still live in traditional tents. Enjoy a cup of Moroccan mint tea while learning about their daily life and centuries-old traditions.
Lunch in the Desert
Around midday, you’ll stop for a picnic-style lunch or enjoy a freshly prepared local meal (tagine or couscous) in a Berber tent. Relax and take in the silence and beauty of the desert before continuing your journey.
Discover Hidden Oases and Scenic Trails
In the afternoon, ride along dry riverbeds and palm groves, following ancient caravan routes once used by traders crossing the Sahara. Stop at panoramic viewpoints to admire the endless dunes and capture incredible photos. The desert’s changing colors as the sun moves across the sky make every moment unforgettable.
Return to Merzouga at Sunset
Your adventure concludes with a beautiful sunset ride back across the dunes toward Merzouga village. As the sun dips below the horizon, casting golden light over the sand, you’ll understand why the Sahara is called the magical desert.
Back at our base, enjoy refreshments and relax after your incredible full-day journey.
