What you should know before renting a Buggy in Merzouga?

1. When driving a buggy in the desert, safety should always come first. Always wear your seatbelt, helmet, and goggles, and make sure you have closed shoes for proper grip and protection. Sunglasses and a scarf are also very useful, as they help protect your face from sand and dust carried by the wind. Even if you are going for a short one-hour ride, these precautions will make your adventure safer and much more comfortable.
2. If it’s your first time driving a buggy, it’s a good idea to start with a 1- or 2-hour ride. This gives you enough time to learn how the buggy handles and to feel more confident on sandy terrain. Once you are comfortable, you can join a half-day or full-day tour. Longer tours often include exciting stops, such as visiting nomad families, exploring hidden oases, or reaching panoramic viewpoints with breathtaking desert views.
3. Driving a buggy is not difficult, but it does take focus and energy. The ride can be bumpy, especially when crossing uneven dunes, and steering in soft sand requires attention. You might feel tired after a few hours, so if you have back or neck problems, it’s better to choose a shorter ride for comfort.
4. We offer flexible buggy options to suit your preference. You can drive your own buggy for a personal adventure or share one with a partner, friend, or family member. Riding double is a fun way to experience the desert together while still enjoying the thrill of the drive.
5. Your local guide is there not only to lead the way but also to keep you safe. They know the desert tracks, the soft dunes, and the safest paths better than anyone else. Always follow their instructions about speed, direction, and where to stop. This will help you avoid accidents, prevent the buggy from getting stuck, and make sure you get the most out of your experience.
