Located just 30–40 minutes from Marrakech, the Agafay Desert is an often-overlooked treasure offering vast arid landscapes with rolling white dunes that resemble the distant Ergs of Morocco's southern Sahara. Framed by the breathtaking High Atlas Mountains, this serene desert is dotted with small oases and inhabited by families who thrive in its stark beauty.
Embark on a one-of-a-kind adventure with Agafay Experience. Start your journey with a hotel or Riad pick-up in the early afternoon, heading towards the tranquil silence of the desert. Upon arrival, quad bikes and camels await, offering an exhilarating mix of exploration and relaxation. Glide across the dunes on a quad or enjoy a peaceful camel ride as the sun sets over the desert's golden horizon.
Nestled in a dry valley, the Agafay Desert is home to hidden gems like a serene wadi inhabited by frogs and turtles. As the evening unfolds, nomadic-style tents welcome you with warm Moroccan hospitality. Begin with traditional mint tea, and let the enchanting ambiance of the desert take you to the heart of Morocco’s nomadic traditions.
As night falls, enjoy a delicious dinner under candlelit tents adorned with traditional decor. The menu features authentic Moroccan dishes, including an assortment of fresh salads, flavorful chicken or meat tagines, seasonal fruits, and aromatic mint tea.
The entertainment begins with live desert performances, including hypnotic Gnaoua music, belly dancing, and captivating animations under the starlit sky. Campfires light up the night as the experience immerses you in the magic of the desert.
