When it comes to exploring Morocco off-road, travellers often ask the same question: what’s the best vehicle? A jeep for comfort, a quad for agility, maybe even a camel for tradition? At A2A Tours, we’ve tested them all — and we choose buggies. Here’s why.
Buggies vs. Jeeps
Jeeps are robust and familiar. They handle highways and gravel tracks well, and they carry more passengers. But on narrow mountain trails or soft sand, their weight works against them. A jeep expedition is often about sitting in the back seat while someone else drives.
A buggy raid is different. You are the driver. The machine is lighter, more responsive, and built for technical sections — dunes, serpentines, rocky plateaus. Two seats, no barriers: you feel the road, the wind, and the terrain in a way a jeep simply can’t deliver.
Buggy vs Jeep Morocco? If you want comfort and asphalt, take a jeep. If you want to lead your own off-road journey, take a buggy.
Buggies vs. Quads
Quads are fun for short spins — light, agile, easy to rent. But they are not designed for long-distance raids. After 20 or 30 kilometres, the lack of suspension and storage space becomes a problem. Add desert heat or mountain cold, and the ride quickly turns into survival.
Buggies solve this balance. They have the agility of quads, but with proper suspension, safety equipment, and the endurance for multi-day expeditions. You can cover 150 km a day, carry what you need, and still step out smiling at the end.

And what about camels?
Camels are part of Morocco’s heritage. They belong in the Sahara, carrying caravans for centuries. We respect them deeply — but we don’t confuse tradition with adventure. A camel trek is a cultural experience; a buggy raid is an expedition. Both are valuable, but they are not the same story.
The raid format
What makes buggy travel unique is not just the vehicle, but the expedition style. We ride for days, across regions: cedar forests to high passes, hammada to dunes, canyons to the Atlantic. Each morning begins with a briefing, each evening ends with stories around dinner. You are not a passenger — you are part of the team, part of the journey.
This is why we say: a buggy is not just transport, it’s the right tool for the road Morocco offers.
