About this experience
The Agafay desert is Marrakech's closest authentic-feeling desert experience. Just 45 minutes from the city, the landscape opens onto a rocky 'stone desert' (hammada) with sweeping views of the snow-capped High Atlas. Our Agafay Desert Experience combines a camel ride, optional quad-biking, and a Berber-tent dinner with live music under the stars — all returning to your Marrakech riad the same evening.
Highlights
- Private round-trip transfer from any Marrakech hotel
- 1-hour camel ride at sunset over the stone desert
- Optional 1- or 2-hour quad-bike circuit
- Berber-tent dinner — tagine, salads, dessert, mint tea
- Live Gnawa drums and a fire under the stars
- Return to Marrakech by 11 pm
