Quad biking, camel trekking, Moroccan lunch, and a pool in the rocky Agafay Desert.
About this experience
Experience the rocky, lunar-like landscape of the Agafay Desert, located just 30-40 minutes from Marrakech. Unlike the Sahara's sand dunes, Agafay is a stone desert with dramatic rolling hills and plateaus set against the backdrop of the High Atlas Mountains. This 5-5.5 hour adventure includes: a 30-minute or 1-hour quad bike ride across the rugged terrain (shared by 2 people per quad), a 20-minute peaceful camel trek for authentic photos, a traditional Moroccan Tagine lunch served with mint tea, and access to a luxury desert swimming pool overlooking the dunes. Many tours also include a brief stop at an Argan oil cooperative to learn about traditional production and taste local products. Round-trip transport from Marrakech is included for accommodations within 7 km of the city center [citation:2][citation:9].
Insider Tips
