Agafay Desert Sunset: Quad, Camel Ride & Dinner Show

Agafay Desert, 40 km from Marrakech7 hoursSmall group

Overview

Agafay is the closest desert to Marrakech. It is not a sand sea like the Sahara but a wide, quiet landscape of golden stone hills, with the snowy High Atlas on the horizon. It is the perfect place to feel the desert without a long drive.

This trip mixes adventure and relaxing. You start with an hour on a quad bike, then slow down on the back of a camel while the sky turns orange. When it gets dark, the camp lights up with lanterns for dinner and a show around the fire.
