Before you go
I have never driven a quad. Is that OK?
Yes. Most of our riders are first-timers. You practise on flat sand first and your guide stays with you.
What is Gnawa music?
Gnawa is spiritual music with drums and iron castanets, brought to Morocco centuries ago. In Khamlia families still play it for visitors.
