An exotic excursion! - A 2-hour camel ride in the Agafay desert followed by delicious couscous in a Berber tent.
The organization is top notch, as is our guide Moussa.
I recommend without hesitation!

Very pleasant experience - Thanks to all the staff, especially Mustafa, Moyssa and Youssef who took amazing care of us. Shakira and Mobro, the camels, were wonderful and the dinner was incredible. A great experience

A great family discovery - A beautiful, well-organized walk. From making contact, our discussions, the transport and the quality of our welcome upon arrival, everything was great!
A very friendly team. A great time with our guide Hicham. Thank you for our little surprise for the children.
We had some apprehensions about the treatment of camels when reading some reviews. Honestly nothing to fear, these animals are loved and respected.
Thank you.

Excellent family time at the gates of the desert - A very pleasant, timeless moment. We took the camel ride in the evening at sunset as well as the Berber meal. The camel driver was very pleasant and Youssef's meal was excellent (I even had his chicken and lemon tagine recipe) ❤️

Do not miss ! - Far from the hustle and bustle of Marrakech, this activity is exotic, we strongly recommend living this experience as a family. Everything is very well organized, a lot of kindness from the team and an excellent tagine served under the tent with a magnificent view of the Agafay desert. Moussa then accompanied us throughout the outing, we thank him for his availability and the pleasure he had in sharing his knowledge of camels with us, the children were captivated and will remember it for a long time!

Professionalism and friendliness - Top experience.
Super recommended tour operator: half day tour from Marrakech to taste the rock desert.
Small group tour, on camel back, for approximately 90 minutes.
If you are staying outside the Medina of Marrakech they will pick you up for a small fee
Delicious snack with freshly cooked scones at the end of everything
