To get to know a country and live experiences where adventure will be your ally and you will be the protagonist, the best thing you can do is a 4x4 route. While you enjoy a wonderful climate in which in January it will be around 13ºC and in July it will be around 25ºC, you can travel kilometers of fun at full speed.
Feel the adrenaline of driving an all-terrain vehicle and you will see that the desert is much more exciting than at first seems. Some places in which the dunes and mountains, as well as other orographic phenomena, will become the main obstacles to overcome.
A totally desert environment makes this means of transportation essential to get from one place to another, which gives it greater excitement. It will depend, however, on the level of experience you have or what you are willing to do to enjoy a unique adventure.
active tourism is one of the best options to get to know a country in which cultural diversity makes it even more striking. It is necessary that you choose good professionals to accompany you on the trip, especially if you have never driven a 4x4 or do not know the country.
The necessary recommendations to be able to carry out the activity will be given to you by the instructor with whom you are going to develop it, but it never hurts to know what steps you have to follow. Below you can read some small tips:
- Dunes. One of the issues to keep in mind is that they are everywhere and that when facing one of them you have to do it directly, never diagonally because you can tip over. Choose an ideal speed, neither too slow because you could get stuck, nor too fast because otherwise you could fly over the crest.
- Fuel. It is very important that you carry gasoline in a separate container, since consumption in the sand is much greater and even more so with the inconvenience that the off-road vehicle can get stuck.
- Material. Bring spare wheels, as you never know if you may need them, but remember that it is not advisable for the tires to have too pronounced tread, as they dig and can sink more easily. The best are those that have a mixed pattern, that is, neither smooth nor rough, as it will adapt to the better terrain and they also don't have many chances of getting a puncture. On the other hand, it would be convenient for you and your team of friends to bring an air compressor, pressure gauge, inflatable jack...
- Driving. In areas where sand is everywhere, 4x4 traction is best, with the engine revs high. In the event that we realize that the car is slowing down and slowing down, we will have to quickly reduce the revs to, again, bring them up again. If we see that the car is stopping, it is very important to get out of it and remove the sand from the front wheels with a shovel, otherwise if we accelerate the car would begin to sink more.
It is very important that you take the appropriate precautions so that the activity develops in the best way and you can make the most of your free time thanks to a 4x4 excursion. Without a doubt, it is an experience that will also bring you closer to other cultures and see life from another perspective. I'm sure that when you travel to Morocco you won't want to return home!
