Guided quad and ATV rides are one of the most common outdoor activities sold in Tangier, in Morocco's Tangier-Tetouan-Al Hoceima region. Operators such as Tangier Day Tours run sunset ATV rides in the countryside hills outside the city, with hotel pickup, a roughly 40 minute drive to the riding area, a safety briefing, helmets and a guided route on dirt tracks. Some tours add a medina dinner afterwards. Riders do not usually need prior experience, but a valid driving licence may be requested, and minimum age rules apply, so these should be confirmed when booking. Dust is part of the experience, so closed shoes, long trousers and a scarf or sunglasses are advisable. Routes are slow to moderate in pace and led by a guide. Prices on booking platforms are about MAD 1,200-1,300 per adult for the sunset-with-dinner package. Because quad operators in Morocco vary in safety standards, visitors should check that helmets are provided, the vehicles are maintained, and the operator carries insurance. Cancellations for wet weather are common because dirt tracks become slippery after rain.
