How much does a quad tour in Merzouga cost?

Short answer: €35 for one hour on a single quad and €55 on a double quad, all inclusive, paid in cash at the end. For longer routes we quote per group on WhatsApp, usually within a few minutes. Here is what sits behind those numbers and how the same ride ends up costing more elsewhere.

The price list

Our hourly prices are per vehicle, not per person. A double quad carries a driver and a passenger for €55, which is why couples almost always take one.

  • 1-hour dune ride — €35 single quad, €55 double quad
  • 2-hour Erg Chebbi exploration — quoted per group
  • Sunset ride — quoted per quad, price confirmed when you book
  • Half-day nomad area and Khamlia — quoted per group

What the price includes

Everything needed to ride. There is no separate charge for the guide, the fuel or the safety gear, and no park or access fee in Erg Chebbi.

  • Guide riding with your group from start to finish
  • Fuel and a quad checked before every departure
  • Helmet for every rider, goggles in wind, gloves in winter
  • Bottled water and photo stops
  • Sandboarding on the one-hour ride
  • Hotel, riad or camp pickup across Merzouga and Hassilabied

What it does not include

Tips are appreciated and never expected. Anything you buy in Khamlia or at a nomad camp is yours. Pickup from well outside the Merzouga area may carry a small fuel contribution, and we always tell you the amount before you agree.

Why marketplaces cost more

GetYourGuide, Viator and Civitatis list Merzouga quad tours run by local operators like us and add a commission of roughly twenty to thirty percent. You get a booking voucher; the ride, the guide and the quads are identical.

Booking direct on WhatsApp gets you the price on this page, a named person to talk to and the ability to change the time the evening before.

How to pay

Cash at the end of the ride, in euros or Moroccan dirhams at a rate agreed beforehand. No deposit, no prepayment. Bank transfer in advance is possible if you prefer — ask and we send details.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a quad tour in Merzouga cost?

Is the price per person or per quad?

The one-hour dune ride price is per quad, not per person. Longer routes are quoted per group.

Is there a deposit?

No. A WhatsApp confirmation holds your slot and you pay after the ride.

Can I pay in dirhams?

Yes, euros or dirhams, at a fair rate agreed before you ride.

Are there cheaper quads in Merzouga?

There are unguided rentals. They come without a guide, often without a helmet, and the sand is unforgiving to people who do not know it. We do not recommend them.
