From Marrakech: Sunset Camel Ride in Agafay Desert with Dinner & Music
journey into the serene Agafay Desert for a magical evening of adventure and culture. Ride camels through moonlike landscapes at sunset, then unwind with a traditional Moroccan dinner under the stars, complete with live music and warm hospitality.
Just a short drive from the vibrant streets of Marrakech lies the tranquil beauty of the Agafay Desert — a rocky, golden expanse where time slows and the horizon stretches endlessly. This unforgettable experience invites you to discover Morocco’s desert magic, just an hour away from the city.
Your journey begins with a comfortable pickup from your accommodation in Marrakech, followed by a scenic drive through rural landscapes, Berber villages, and olive groves. As you arrive in Agafay, you’ll be warmly welcomed at a peaceful desert camp with Moroccan mint tea and pastries, setting the tone for a night of wonder.
Next, dress in a traditional blue turban and gandoura, and embark on a camel ride across the rugged terrain. As the sun begins to set, the desert transforms into a canvas of warm colors — a truly breathtaking moment. Pause for photos and take in the stillness of the landscape, with the snow-capped Atlas Mountains in the distance.
Back at camp, settle in for a three-course Moroccan dinner served under the stars. Savor local favorites like tagine, couscous, fresh salads, and mint tea — all prepared with love and care. As night falls, the ambiance comes alive with live Gnawa or Berber music around a glowing fire. Enjoy the rhythms of traditional instruments and the spirit of community, laughter, and joy.
Whether you're looking for a romantic escape, a cultural experience, or a peaceful retreat from the city, this evening in Agafay offers something truly special. It’s not just a tour — it’s a memory you’ll carry long after your journey ends.
