The spirit of travel
Useful information for the quad biking section
Taking a quad biking tour in Morocco is simply a particular way to discover the territory. It is generally carried out with a guide, who is also on a quad, and support in a 4x4, with both connected by telephone when there is network coverage. Support is present at each picnic and each evening, or more if necessary. On average, daily riding time is 6 hours, with a slower pace on the first day. The selection of the route and stages depends on the weather and the duration of the circuit.
Useful information for the trekking section
With a guide, trekking is mainly adapted in duration and difficulty according to the wishes and fitness level of the people who want to do it. Some routes may require the use of a 4x4 to reach difficult-to-access but interesting points. If we choose to spend a night in wild bivouac, the agency will provide us with the necessary equipment.
Here is a tour that can be modified according to our preferences: just notify the agency.
The stages of your journey
Highlights
Day-by-day itinerary
Aglou Plage
Welcome at the Agadir Al-Massira international airport. We then depart by taxi to reach Aglou, a rural Moroccan municipality nestled in the Tiznit province. This journey can last up to 1 hour and 30 minutes.
Once there, we are accommodated at the Chant du Chameau, in immediate proximity to the Atlantic. An overnight stay in half-board, double room with bathroom awaits us there.
Quad day in the dunes
From Aglou or the agency's bivouac, we first cross trails along the ocean to encounter dunes, fishermen's caves, local cultures, typical villages…
Lunch is served in a guesthouse or as a picnic beneath eucalyptus trees.
If we're there in the right season, we can also observe birds frequenting the banks of a wadi.
After this lunch break, we drive on sand tracks before crossing an abandoned stone village. This is a suitable spot to see shepherds shearing their sheep in spring. It will be while admiring the breathtaking ocean views that we return to our camp.
Each evening, we can spend a night on half-board in a different and varied accommodation: fishermen's cave, guesthouse at Aglou beach, wild bivouac, guesthouse with swimming pool…
Quad day in the mountains
Heading towards the inland territories, we stop at a village well to observe herds quenching their thirst. Continuing the journey, we will first cross an old souk before arriving at the plateau where we picnic near an old sheepfold.
The afternoon is marked by the journey showing a mountain village and especially a magnificent canyon. At the top, we will first enjoy a breathtaking view of the Anti-Atlas before heading back down to our bivouac.
In principle, we spend one night at the agency's bivouac.
Day quad biking at the lake or dam
From the camp, we cross a palm grove before following a wadi towards a dam. A few magnificent landscapes may catch our eyes during this journey. In the afternoon, we take a sandy track called "the isolated tree trail" leading towards the seaside.
There is also a path that passes by a lake, but this route is very physical and reserved for more experienced drivers.
Night: accommodation with half board.
From sea to mountain
From Aglou, we take a taxi to Taroudant, a city in the south-west of Maroc in the Souss plain. Generally, the journey takes 2 hours and 30 minutes.
Depending on the agency's availability, we can do a brief visit of Taroudant: ramparts, souks, tanneries… For lunch, we stop at a small restaurant in the medina, the old quarter.
From Taroudant, we need 45 minutes to reach the Berber village of Afensou where the Jebel Aoulime mountain stands, reaching up to 3,500 meters in altitude.
We are welcomed to our guesthouse: Les Terrasses de l'Atlas.
Once settled, we prepare ourselves for a short hike to the Tamdousnous gorge. On foot or on the back of a donkey, we pass through the fields and along the stream. The adventure is marked by bathing in flowing waters and the passage, balancing, over irrigation channels.
We naturally spend a night at Les Terrasses de l'Atlas: accommodation in a double room with bathroom and terrace, half-board.
Trekking on Panoramic Ridges
We recommend joining the ridge line which is located opposite our guesthouse. This panoramic walk requires 4 hours of hiking. However, we need 6 hours in total to also explore the ridge line which is a magnificent place. This route can be extended according to your needs.
Upon our return, a traditional wood-fired hammam awaits us at Terrasses de l'Atlas.
After taking this relaxing, hot and humid steam bath, we are invited to taste homemade couscous.
Another night at Terrasses de l'Atlas.
Those who wish can instead sleep in wild bivouac, under tent or under the stars, on one of the ridges. Furthermore, they will enjoy a campfire and barbecue. Their luggage will be carried by donkeys.
High valleys of almond and walnut trees
With a 4x4 (or on foot for the sporty and brave!), the high-altitude valleys and gorges are accessible.
On site, customized for you, we explore on foot various locations: typical Berber villages, small waterfalls, high-altitude shepherds' huts heading towards the highest peaks in the area.
At the end of the day, we return to our guesthouse to learn how to prepare and cook Berber bread with Hafida. All together, we relax with background music, waiting for the moment to taste homemade tagines.
We always spend the night at Terrasses de l'Atlas.

The information below concerns travelers who are nationals of the European Economic Area (EEA), Switzerland and Canada traveling to Morocco for a tourist stay. Entry rules may change, so we recommend verifying this information with the official authorities before your departure.
Passport
To enter Morocco, your passport must be valid for the entire duration of your stay and include at least one blank page for immigration stamps.
The document must be in good condition (no damaged, torn or altered pages).
Nationals of certain EEA countries may enter Morocco with a valid national identity card in accordance with applicable bilateral agreements. However, it is advisable to travel with a valid passport to avoid any inconvenience.
Tourist stay without visa
Nationals of the European Economic Area, Switzerland and Canada benefit from a visa exemption for tourist stays.
This exemption allows a stay of up to 90 days from the date of entry into Moroccan territory. Beyond this period, authorization of stay must be requested from the Moroccan authorities.
The authorities may also request:
an outbound ticket (return or onward flight),
proof of sufficient financial resources for the duration of the stay,
proof of accommodation (hotel booking or invitation from a private individual).
Health and vaccinations
No vaccination is mandatory to enter Morocco from the EEA, Switzerland or Canada. However, it is recommended to ensure that routine vaccinations are up to date (diphtheria, tetanus, poliomyelitis, hepatitis A).
It is advisable to consult a doctor or vaccination center before departure, particularly for stays in rural areas or remote regions.
Traveling with children
Minors must hold their own valid passport covering the duration of the stay.
In certain European countries, when a minor travels without one of their parents, an authorization to leave the territory may be required according to the regulations of the country of residence.
