This was a fantastic trip and we thoroughly enjoyed it! Although there was an initial problem whereby we were expected to be picked up from the hotel, this was sorted out. We were collected at the time that we were advised. The driver provided water and explained what we would be doing and at what times. The camel ride was good, everyone was friendly and when we went to the camp for the evening, the staff were really quick to cater, the food was lovely, and the atmosphere great. Fun music and dancing followed by a fire show. One tip - take a jumper - it can get chilly in the desert at night! Overall really great value for money and a lovely way to spend the last night of our holiday. throroughly recommend!
Well organized, friendly guide. This is the trip to be like.
Agafay Desert Sunset and Camel Ride with Dinner from Marrakech. This is the trip we took. It was great fun. Not sure camel ride is for eberyone but I am 74 and i survived the camel. Our guide was excellent he took us to a lake to watch the sunset before going to our camp for dinner and show. Great value for money.
The task is very different from the description. The Agafy desert is now covered with grass and therefore has very little of the desert sand. the camel ride is a walk of very few meters just to take some pictures and nothing more. While we saw in the distance other camel tours more adventurous in the desert. Dinner is joined to many other groups arriving at different times so we finished that there was still light but we had to wait for everyone to eat and dine about 2 hours after we had already finished dinner. The show lasts 10 minutes and started after 2130 when the departure was for 21. If you go with children (I was with an 11-year-old son) the risk is that they will not eat anything they bring because it is too spicy and particular.
Excellent trip, loved everything about it, well organised and guide couldn't do enough, entertainment was great and food as good as I had eaten in Marakech
Amazing experience,the tour guide hassan and the driver were so nice and knowledgeable the car specious and everything went well.
This was a fantastic experience. Our guide Ilyas had great communication and ensured we were kept informed for each part of the tour. He regularly checked we were happy and having a good time, which we were. We stopped at a place that produces Argan oil, which was really informative and interesting, then had our camel ride and got some great photos of the desert. We arrived in time for the sunset and had some lovely food with great entertainment. There was a lovely atmosphere and it was really great value for money. A very well organised tour. Also a special thanks to Ilyas for ensuring we got back to our Riad safely.
an unforgettable experience, together with family and friends, a spectacular sunset in the desert, rich food, listening to typical music, until we danced at the end, the ride in Camel very well, with beautiful views of the atlas mountains, our driver Said was very attentive and very friendly, highly recommended , excellent cost-benefit
The trip was perfect! We agreed w girls it was best part of being in Morroco. Guide Ilyass was super nice and fun. With whole team they take super care of us. From start to finish we felt spirit of Morrocan culture. Thank you guys for having us, we will for sure come back !
I had such a fantastic time with ILYAS’ team for this full day tour. Can’t recommend it enough for anyone who is visiting Marrakech with friends or family looking for activities outside of the city.
