This adventure is not only exhilarating but also a sustainable way to connect with the natural beauty of Marrakesh. As one reviewer noted on January 10, 2025:
“This was an incredible experience. We were picked up close to our riad and then taken on quadbikes by Osman. Just 2 of us following him. We had a fun hour with a stop half way through for sweet mint tea and bread and honey. Then the camels led by Abdul. Our camels were beautiful animals, mostly well behaved, stopping occasionally to grab some palm leaves. We loved it- thank you.”
Discover the Serenity of the Agafay Desert

Just 30 kilometers outside of Marrakesh, the Agafay Desert provides a stunning backdrop for a traditional Moroccan dinner.
