Agafay Desert Buggy Tour from Marrakech – 2 Hour Off-Road Ride

Summary

Morocco Off-Road Buggy Adventure in Agafay Desert

If you’re after something more than just sightseeing near Marrakech, this buggy tour is pure fun mixed with local flavor. You’ll zip through wild desert tracks, pause for real Moroccan tea, and get stories straight from locals who know every corner of Agafay.

What’s the experience like?

The first thing that hit me was the dry, earthy scent as we rolled out of Marrakech—windows down, sun already warming the dashboard. By the time we reached the edge of the Agafay Desert, I could see the Atlas Mountains hazy in the distance. Our guide, Youssef, handed out helmets and goggles with a grin and a quick rundown on how to handle the buggies. The engines rumbled to life—honestly, it’s hard not to feel a little giddy at that sound.

Once we got going, the landscape changed fast: rocky patches gave way to sandy stretches where you could really open up the throttle. I remember hitting a bump and laughing as dust kicked up behind us—my friend tried to wave but ended up with sand in his teeth. We stopped for mint tea under a canvas tent; there was this faint smell of wood smoke and sweet herbs in the air. Youssef shared stories about Berber villages nearby and pointed out tiny lizards darting between stones. The whole ride felt like a mix of adrenaline and calm—wind on your face one minute, quiet views of endless hills the next.
