Agafay Sunset Tour: Jeep of Road With Camel Ride and Tea in a Nomad’s Tent

This is a unique taste of Moroccan desert travel — the Agafay Sunset Tour (Off-Road Jeep with Camel Ride and Tea in a Nomad’s Tent) is perfect for those who want a glimpse of the Moroccan desert but are short on time. Leaving Marrakesh, the route heads southwest through green valleys dotted with olive and orange groves, passing small villages like Lalla Takerkoust and its lake. After some distance off-road in a 4×4 jeep, the landscape changes dramatically, revealing the Agafay desert — a vast stretch of light-brown plateaus reminiscent of the Sahara.

While Agafay has become more popular in recent years, our specific route stays off the beaten path and is largely unknown to most visitors, so you’ll avoid the crowds and enjoy the unique scenery and off-road drive in peace. Agafay isn’t a typical dune-filled desert; instead, it impresses with its quiet, almost musical stillness and its range of earthy tones. On our exclusive guided tour, you’ll take a camel ride through this striking landscape and enjoy Moroccan tea in a nomad tent as the sun sets. Afterward, we’ll drive you back to Marrakesh, leaving you with lasting memories of the desert’s charm.

For travelers who want the more classic image of the desert — vast dunes and sand fields — we also offer a 3-Day Desert Tour from Marrakesh to Merzouga, a contrast to the Agafay experience.
