Spend a Night in the Agafay Desert

On the day of the activity, we'll pick you up from your chosen meeting point in Marrakech to begin our adventure to the desert of Agafay!

After a quick 1-hour drive, we'll venture into the Atlas Mountain's expansive, arid landscapes and make our way to camp. Upon our arrival, we'll receive a set of luxury haimas along with a cup of Moroccan tea.

At this stage, depending on the time you choose to start the tour, you can either relax in the camp to watch the sunset or embark on a camel ride through the desert's dunes.

Later on, after everyone has arrived back at camp, we'll tuck into a delicious traditional Moroccan dinner, consisting of salads, chicken tajine, vegetable couscous and dessert. Along with dinner, we'll enjoy a fantastic traditional show, complete with belly dancing, fire-eaters and Gnawa music!

After an evening of delicious food, spectacular entertainment and wonderful views, we'll retire to our haimas to rest underneath the clear, starry skies of the tranquil desert.

In the morning, we'll watch the sunrise before enjoying a lovely wholesome breakfast and making our way back to Marrakech.

Its not a desert. Just deserted area. But i still loved every part of this trip <3 I also had a camel ride, and these camels were only camels i have seen treated well. They were not bound and their babies were on walk with them. Dinner with show was amazing and I slept like a baby in a tent. Abel was my guide and everything went well with him :)

Maravillosa experiencia en el desierto. Nos recogieron en el punto con una furgoneta que ponía Agafay. Nos recibieron con un té. Las instalaciones son de lujo, el paisaje es una pasada, la cena riquísima a la luz de un farolillo. Hicimos excursión en buggy y flipamos toda la familia. El guía encantador. La piscina es un lugar paradisíaco. Nos atendió David, súper amable y atento. Gracias David por el recibimiento y por tu cordialidad. Nos volveremos a ver seguramente. Muy recomendable. Translate this opinion into English.

A wonderful desert experience. They picked us up at the destination in a van marked Agafay. We were welcomed with tea. The facilities are luxurious, the scenery is breathtaking, and the dinner by lantern light is delicious. We took a buggy tour and the whole family loved it. The guide was charming. The pool is idyllic. We were served by David, who was extremely friendly and attentive. Thank you, David, for the welcome and your cordiality. We will definitely see you again. Highly recommended.

La experiencia fue excelente... Nos recogieron puntuales, el lugar muy bonito con todas las comodidades...el personal encantador y la comida riquísima... Si tuviera que decir algo malo, sería que si bien el paisaje es desértico, no es de arena... Totalmente recomendado! Translate this opinion into English.

The experience was excellent... We were picked up on time, the place was very nice with all the amenities... the staff was charming and the food delicious... If I had to say something bad, it would be that while the landscape is desert-like, it's not sandy... Totally recommended! Opinion translated. Show original.
