Who should skip what
If you only want dunes, choose a board-only trip: the desert adventure starts at €10.20 and the guided experience at €10.20 per person. For quad combinations, the Takate tour starts at €16.01 and the four-hour adventure at €16.68 per person. For Taghazout stays, both board-only descriptions offer pickup there, and the Takate listing names Agadir, Taghazout and Anza. The four-hour Sidi Toual itinerary names Agadir. Confirm the exact pickup point for your selected option. The four-hour Sidi Toual adventure excludes children under 3 and pregnant women; under-16s must ride with an adult as passengers, and no driving licence is required. The Takate tour excludes pregnant women and people with back problems. Check child eligibility and passenger arrangements for the other tours before booking.
Our recommendation: the five-hour sandboarding tour with canyon. It puts the dunes first, with Colors Village and the canyon as additional stops.
