Excellent Value for Money - Both Ayoub and the driver were very friendly and helpful!
They collected us from the very centre of Marrakech and took us through amazing desert surroundings to the stunning location, from which we watched the sunset with an enjoyable meal. Afterwards, there was a party and fire show, which added to the fun evening.
We also stopped at a local co-operative en route, where we had the chance to learn about Argan Oil from the producers.
A very enjoyable trip with a bit of everything all in one evening!

Sunset desert trip - Ayoub our driver and guide was fantastic and so helpful. The evening was amazing and our food really nice. The drummers/singers were really entertaining and had everyone up dancing and the fire show was so good. We’d highly recommend booking this trip

Great alternative to a city evening - Even though this is not the real desert (as that would too far for a day trip), this experience is so worth it if you are in it for an afternoon of relaxation and entertainment. At Afafay park you are likely to see one of the most beautiful sunset you have even seen, followed by a well organized dinner, dance and fire show. Our guide Ismail was very nice, checking on us all the time and being very thoughtful. My friend and I really loved it!

Nice evening - Good communication before the excursion with our guide Ayoub who sent us a message to introduce himself and arrange the meeting place.
From the moment we arrived, he was very cheerful and pleasant throughout the evening.
The camp is very well decorated in local colors.
The meal was good (a little cold),
The service is fast.
Pleasant evening. small downside, we were expecting a longer folklore show.

Great value - Great value for money, visited a women's initiative for Argan oil the women were lovely (no pressure to purchase) and optional (free) camel ride. The camp in the desert was great fun. Our guide Mustapha looked after us very well 😊
The journey there took a long time with the two stops got to camp with just 15mins before sunset. I would suggest less time at the Argan oil place

Underwhelming - Not quite what we were expecting, the Argan oil cooperative was interesting but then when we got out into the Agafay we were left sat by ourselves for over an hour with very little explanation. No camel ride was ever offered despite being in the description. The tagine was okay, nothing special. The sunset was nice to see but then the desert show was more of a disco then a brief fire eating display.
We were overall left feeling fairly underwhelmed by the experience.
