Quad biking in Merzouga is one of the most exciting ways to explore the desert. Whether you have just an hour to spare or want to spend almost the whole day riding, there are many options to choose from. You can begin your adventure directly from Merzouga village, or if you are already staying in a desert camp, we can pick you up right from your tent, so you don’t miss any time on the dunes.
For travelers who want only a taste of the desert, a short ride of one or two hours is a great choice. These tours take you straight onto the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi, where you will feel the thrill of riding across the soft sand. The guide usually leads you to some of the highest dunes, where you can stop for a while to take photos and enjoy the incredible views of the desert stretching endlessly around you. A short ride is also perfect for people who are new to quad biking and want to try it out in a safe and fun way.
If you have a little more time, you can choose a medium tour that lasts about three to four hours. These tours go beyond the first line of dunes and take you to the far side of the desert. Along the way, you may stop to meet nomad families who still live in tents and move with their animals, just as their ancestors did. Spending time with them is a special cultural experience, as they often invite visitors for tea and share stories about life in the desert. On this tour, you also get to see different landscapes, from wide open plains to hidden dune valleys that most visitors never reach.
For the most adventurous travelers, a longer quad biking tour of five to six hours offers a deep journey into the heart of the desert. On this ride, you leave behind the busy areas near the village and ride far into untouched parts of Erg Chebbi. One of the highlights of the long tour is reaching an oasis in the middle of the dunes. Here, you can rest under the shade of palm trees and enjoy a traditional lunch prepared for you. The long tour also includes more time for fun activities like sandboarding, where you can slide down the dunes on a board, adding an extra layer of excitement to the day.
