If you’re looking to escape Marrakech for a night, the Agafay Desert offers a setting unlike anywhere else. Just 45 minutes from the city, this rocky wilderness—often called the “stone desert”—unfolds into rolling hills, wide horizons, and a calm that feels worlds away. Here, you can ride camels at sunset and share a traditional Moroccan dinner under a star-filled sky.

What the Experience Includes

Your evening begins with a pickup in Marrakech, followed by a short drive out of the city. On arrival, you’ll meet your camels for a gentle ride across the desert trails—an ideal chance to enjoy the scenery and capture photos in the warm evening light.

Afterward, you’ll be welcomed into a desert camp. As night falls, long tables are set among the dunes and a full Moroccan dinner is served: fresh salads, steaming couscous, and slow-cooked tagines that carry the flavors of the region.
