Agafay Desert Sunset Dinner and Show
Overview
This is the easiest way to enjoy a desert evening without leaving Marrakech for long. In the late afternoon you drive to a camp in the Agafay Desert, about 45 minutes away, settle in with mint tea and take a short camel ride as the sun sets behind the hills and the Atlas turns pink.
Dinner is served at the camp, usually with Moroccan salads, a tagine or couscous and dessert, followed by live music around the fire. The atmosphere and the show vary from one camp to another, so we confirm the program with you. You return to Marrakech later in the evening.
