Where to Eat, Drink, and Stay in Marrakech Right Now

"A stark, tranquil desert used for camel treks where silence is broken only by the clopping of camels and occasional exuberant celebrations; guests experience vivid communal moments at camp — including festive dinners — making excursions both peaceful and unexpectedly lively." - Brian Freedman

One of the best experiences me and the family have witnessed. Friendly tour guide. Quad bike was great even for first timers! Camels were greats. The landscape was Allāh Akbar! The dinner was lovely and the fire entertainment gave me goosebumps. Paid £15 per person. A must do for every tourist for sure!

We found a tour on the Getyourguide app. The tour included a camel ride, mint tea, quad bike ride, dinner in a Berber camp , sunset in the desert then fire show, dance around the fire with Berber live music . It is a must do, one of the lifetime experience. We liked that ,the people from all around the word danced together . It was uplifting. It was very good value for money. We paid around 600 MAD for all of the above for 2 adults and one child. They picked us up at 15:00 and we got back to Marrakech around 22:30.

The Agafay Desert near Marrakesh is truly a wonderful place and hidden gem! Its unique rocky landscape offers a serene and captivating experience, unlike the typical sandy deserts. Visitors often rave about the breathtaking sunsets and the tranquility of the area. It's perfect for those seeking a peaceful retreat or an adventurous day with camel rides, quad biking, or stargazing. The proximity to Marrakesh makes it an ideal getaway, allowing you to enjoy the best of both worlds—vibrant city life and the calm of the desert. Many travelers highlight the warm hospitality of the locals and the luxurious desert camps that blend comfort with an authentic touch. It's an unforgettable experience that captures the essence of Morocco's natural beauty.

The Agafay desert is located thirty kilometers in the South of Marrakech and extends over several hundred acres. This rocky desert, can be likened to a sand desert. Indeed, its white dunes stand and landscape are similar to the Sahara dunes. In the middle of the desert, is a surprising oasis, a haven of peace and tranquility, where the fauna and flora can easily develop. In this paradise, frogs and turtles live peacefully in the oueds, surrounded by water and rocks. Lost in the dunes are still some Berber villages that continue to exist in this austere but sublime nature.
