Description
Escape to a beautiful place in the rocky desert of Agafay. Stay overnight at a peaceful desert camp. Pass through wonderful sights and landscapes. Ride a camel as the sunset lights up the desert.
Start your adventure to the amazing rocky desert with a hotel pickup in Marrakech at 10:00 AM. Ride in comfort with a professional, kind, and bilingual driver in an air-conditioned car. Drive outside of the city through Tahnaoute. Take in views of the surrounding olive groves and orange and lemon trees before reaching the gateway to simple and beautiful, Berber nature.
Settle down for a while in a beautiful place called Asni, one of the most stunning countrysides around Marrakech. Take a break to enjoy views of the Atlas Mountains and the warm company of the Moroccan locals. Proceed to the Plateau Kik, the gateway to the Agafay Desert and an area that promotes the feeling of freedom and inspiration. Stop for a traditional Moroccan lunch at the lake, enjoying a moment surrounded by wonderful scenery.
In the late afternoon, embark on a sunset camel ride. Like in the "Lawrence of Arabia," travel to another era as you admire the earth’s unspoiled beauty. Arrive at your destination at the Agafay Camp, where friendly staff will be waiting to warmly welcome you in Moroccan style. Enjoy a delightful dinner with your friends or family in the desert. Settle in for the night in comfortable and tastefully-designed bivouacs below a bewitching sky.
Wake up for a leisurely morning in the desert. Enjoy the sunrise and a typical breakfast at the camp. Start on the road back to Marrakech at around 10:30 AM and enjoy completely different views than on the way there. Take in vistas of the High Atlas Mountains. Feel free to ask your driver to stop for photos before arriving back at your accommodation in Marrakech.
