The Agafay Desert
Golden stone hills, vast skies and the Atlas on the horizon — the closest desert escape to Marrakech.
The Agafay is a rocky desert rather than a sea of sand dunes, and it lies under an hour’s drive from Marrakech. That makes it ideal for an afternoon, a sunset dinner or a night at a camp, without a long journey.
Camps range from simple to refined. We help you choose one that matches your style and arrange private transportation there and back.
