Good emotions and discoveries - Welcoming, security and explanations for 2 parents and 2 teenagers all beginners, 3 hours of quad biking in the dunes, the beach and the steep paths. Very stirring but a lot of emotions.

Everything perfect! - An amazing and fun experience. Rashid and his team were incredible. Well organized tour, sanitized equipment and ride on the breathtaking dunes. They also made us a beautiful surprise for our friend's birthday. Not much to say, just perfect!

Brilliant fun and a professional friendly team. So glad we chose Palma Quad. - Excellent team and bikes, so glad we chose 3hrs! Great dune riding and forest trails. We travelled at least 10k down the coast. We had 3 guides, so professional and nice. We split us into 2 groups, one faster and the other more normal to cater for our various abilities. It was so much fun. It was my birthday, they saw this on the sign in forms and we came back to an amazing band playing, patisserie cake and mint tea! Made it so unexpectedly special. They all spoke great English that really helped too. Would definitely recommend to use Palma Quad.

Excellent experience - I did 3 different experiences with PalmQuad- 3 hours Quads, 1,5H Camel ride and Bike rental. They have exceeded themselves in all 3. They are very professional, helpful, explain well and they are very committed. This is defenitley a place you want to arrange your trips! If you go to Essaouira you will see plenty of quads, bikes and camels so what's is differentiating Palm Quad from the others? 1) Camel- The guide is the person who takes the pictures, which have an excellent quality + he has a talent for pictures. The sunset ones are simply stunning You dont have to worry about it and you get all of them the moment you come back to the office. You get dressed up by the company- a large tunic and a shawl on your head. There are very strong winds and sand gets everywhere. I have seen plenty of people getting on camel without this in; thirsts/ dresses etc as other companies allows it- this is highly irresponsible + super uncomfortable 2) Quads- Again pictures done by the company + you receive a full equipment not only a helment but a antiwind jacket + a shawl. They do put at first your well being/ protection rather than money so you need to have long trousers and ideally sneakers. In other companies i saw people on quads wearing dresses/ no proteciton etc. this can simply be dangerous. In Palm Quad they explained everything, i went with my daughter and we were alone with 3 guides for us to help and assist. We felt very taken care of. You receive water and some chocolate as well. You dont actually need to worry about taking anything as they take water etc for you. And of course the views etc everything was amazing 3) BIkes- we rented 3 hours bikes- again we received water which was nice. The bikes were very good quality. I dont know about bikes but i got stooped twice by other tourists asking about this bikes as they new the brand of the bikes, this must mean something :) All in all exceptional treatment, great experience and lovely people working in Palm Quad. Thank you very much for everything

Nice experience - Great! Beautiful sensations Very good organization, professional and serious team A little long 3 hours for novices and a 13 year old teen ... but memories full of mind , my daughter realized her dream to drive 1 quad and ride in the dunes . The only downside, which does not depend on Palma Quad: the many rubbish on the beach and in the dunes ... it is a sad sight. I recommend this company!

Highly recommend - This was fun! :-) We were four families, ranging in age from 16 to 55, and everyone had a great time. The staff were professional, friendly, and made sure everything ran smoothly. We truly enjoyed ourselves.

To be done and done again without moderation - Great experience from start to finish. Warm welcome from the team. Full equipment. Walks in the dunes and by the sea with breaks "drink". Breathtaking scenery. We were only 4 quads, homogeneous group, no need to wait for latecomers, so very nice!! Kindness of the guides and icing on the cake, they offer us to address by email graciously all the photos taken by the guide during the tour. To highlight! I'll do it again with great pleasure.

Excellent quad tour experience in Essaouira! - Excellent quad tour experience in Essaouira! Palma Quad offered a fantastic and well-organized experience. Everything was super hygienic and clean, from the equipment to the helmets and suits. The tour started with a clear and helpful safety briefing, which made us feel confident and well-prepared. The small group size was perfect — no crowds, just a personal and relaxed ride through beautiful landscapes. Our instructor was very friendly and professional, always attentive and made sure everyone felt safe and had fun. He also took great photos of us during the ride, which we received after the tour — such a nice extra touch to remember the experience! Highly recommended for anyone visiting Essaouira and looking for a fun, safe, and high-quality quad tour!
