Short answerBefore paying for an Agafay tour, confirm: is hotel pick-up included, how long you actually ride, whether helmets are provided, how big the group is, what dinner includes, and the cancellation policy. A good operator answers all of this clearly in writing.

10 questions to ask

  1. Is return transfer from my riad included? Some offers start from a meeting point outside the medina.
  2. How long is the actual ride? “3-hour tour” may mean 1 hour of riding plus transfers.
  3. Are helmets and scarves provided? They should be.
  4. How many people per group and per guide?
  5. One person per quad, or shared? Prices can be per person or per vehicle.
  6. What does dinner include? Menu, drinks, show, vegetarian options.
  7. What is the cancellation policy? Weather and illness happen.
  8. How do I pay? Deposit, cash on the day, card?
  9. Is there insurance? Check your own travel insurance too.
  10. Who do I contact on the day? A WhatsApp number that answers.

Booking direct vs platforms

Big platforms such as GetYourGuide or Viator are convenient and have reviews, but often resell local operators with a commission. Booking direct with a local company usually means more flexibility on timing and pick-up, and a direct line to the team on the day.

Red flags

  • No written confirmation
  • Price changes once you arrive
  • No helmet or briefing
  • Pressure to buy photos or extras
