60th Birthday Celebration - It was my 60th birthday celebration. The price was reasonable, being that I was paying for 16 friends and family that traveled with me to to Morocco to celebrate me. We truly enjoyed ourselves. The camel ride, the sunset dinner, entertainment and the beautiful sunset was great. I would recommend this.

Best experience - This tour was truly incredible! Ayoub, our guide, was fantastic—he provided thorough explanations and made sure everything ran smoothly from pick-up to drop-off. The dinner featured an array of delicious Moroccan dishes that we thoroughly enjoyed. We also visited an argan oil factory, where we learned about the production process and were treated to Moroccan tea, jelly, peanut butter, oil, and bread. The camel ride and ATV adventure were both exhilarating, and I'd recommend dressing comfortably as things can get a bit dusty. The vehicle was spacious, air-conditioned, and very comfortable. Thank you for an unforgettable experience Ayoub!

Value for money trip to the Desert. - I went along with my partner and we had Rabiaka as our host. It was a really nice easy afternoon. There was nothing to worry about as Rabiaka communicated pick up and made sure everything was organised throughout the day. Day started with a pick up from 3:45 not far from our Riad. We stopped off at an Oils and herbs place which was great to break up the drive a bit. We then headed to the desert where we had a short canal ride. The rest of the group went on a Quad bike ride, we opted to sit and relax by the pool. Dinner was very nice with a good environment. Would recommend

Camel ride, lovely food and fire show! - We received a text to say the driver was waiting for us outside the gate of the hotel as they would not allow him in to pick us up. We then walked to the gate entrance and was greeted by a friendly young man, could not speak English very well but advised us we would be driving for about an hour to pick up 2 other couples. We drove into some very busy, scary roads and mopeds weaving around to pick up the two other couples who were Spanish and could not speak to us as I had booked an English tour. We were taken to a side café/shop and asked to sit down upstairs where a lady poured some tea with breads and dips and then we had a demonstration/talk about Argan oils. Set off again to a place in the mountains, where the camels were. Were directed to get on the camels and had a ride on a dirt track up and down small hills which was scary but fun, with the sun setting over the mountains and the camel man took photos for us. We then left to go to a place where we were asked to sit down and was brought water, a tagine meal with chicken and vegetables which was tasty, followed by a further tagine of cous cous and vegetables then a lemon cake dessert. We then moved our chairs to a field with a fire in the middle to watch the fire show. The beginning was strange, audience asked to get into a circle and sing and dance around the fire before the fire show started. We then went home with our guide and dropped off the other couples again at their hotel. We had set off 5pm and got back to the hotel at 11.30pm, not the 4 hours described. All in all, it was a great adventure although we would have liked someone to tell us in English where we were going or what we were doing next as it felt a bit of a mystery all evening. Overall, we enjoyed our adventure but were very tired afterwards.

Not great. Do your research - I booked this experience mainly for my young children as they had been longing to ride a camel for a while. I dont know if i have just been spoilt with experience in the past but ive done some fantastic camel rides across the sahara and various other deserts, leading to small intimate camps where dinner was cooked in front of us and a campfire was lit, with berbers singing and playing traditional music. If that is the sort of thing you are after then this is not it. This was completely the opposite experience of what i wanted my children to have. On arrival to the camp there was loud R&B charts music playing throughout really busy camp, could barely through the amount of people. People swimming in the pool but the water looked gross, had litter floating in it and slime on the top of the water. We were sat at a table with no shade until our camel was ready, and then we were hurried on to the camels and when i say hurried, the camel man literally shoved me on, no time to take photos or chatter, ushered me on saying Go Go Go. He took my phone to take some picture for me but i wanted to do this myself before getting on to be honest. Camel trek was less than 15 minute in total, and packed in a line of about 20 other people. Was meant to be a sunset ride but it was no where near sunset, still had about an hour to go. Driver picked us up from hotel and stopped at yet another argan oil place en route but our baby was asleep in the car and none of us wanted to get out and see more argan so we told him to carry on to the camp. We were told dinner was chicken and rice, no veg only options and 4 of us dont eat meat. The music was just awful, couldnt stand it any longer, so we made the decision to leave and go back to our hotel for dinner. Also had to buy drinks out of a vending machine. But the point being there shouldnt be a vending machine in the desert, just takes away from the feel of it all. I wanted our children to experience the fire show and traditional berber music but it just felt like more of a nightclub in a scruffy part of the desert, really nothing appealing about it whatsoever. We took what nice photos we could of the sun setting, and our driver was lovely, even stopped to let us take some photos of the sunset on the way back to the hotel, but the whole thing was so tragic that we just skipped the meal and evening altogether. Not a nice experience. Pay extra for something more intimate and if you want a proper sandy desert you need to take the sahara trip not Agafay.
