Itinerary
Day 1
Afternoon pickup in Marrakech, transfer to Agafay Desert for activities and evening dinner, then return to Marrakech.
Hotel pickup / Meet driver
Pickup from your hotel or arranged nearby meeting point in Marrakech. Driver will confirm exact pickup details via WhatsApp before departure. Look for a vehicle marked 'Oasis Sky'.
Tips from local experts:
- Be ready 5 minutes before the scheduled pickup time — driver will message on WhatsApp to confirm the exact meeting point.
- For Medina riads not accessible by car, plan to meet at the riad entrance or the nearest drivable street; have a small bag to carry to the vehicle.
- Carry a light jacket; desert evenings cool quickly — leave heavier luggage at your hotel for return.
Transfer: Marrakech → Agafay Desert (Oasis Sky area)
Air-conditioned vehicle transfer from central Marrakech to the Agafay Desert camp area.
Tips from local experts:
- Expect approximately 40–45 minutes' drive depending on traffic; use the time to relax and enjoy views of the city fading into open desert.
- If you're prone to car sickness, sit in the front seat and bring a small travel-sickness remedy.
- Keep your phone charged for the driver’s WhatsApp updates and for sunset photos once you arrive.
Welcome & Safety Briefing at Camp
Short welcome, safety briefing, and equipment distribution before activities begin.
Tips from local experts:
- Listen to the safety briefing carefully if you will operate a quad — follow the guide’s instructions at all times.
- Ask staff about restroom locations and the pool rules during the welcome so you can plan your free time.
- If you need a quieter seating area during the evening, mention it at arrival — hosts can usually accommodate couples seeking a calm spot.
Quad biking across the Agafay Desert
Guided quad ride across desert trails. Quads are shared as 1 quad per 2 people; participants alternate driving where required.
Tips from local experts:
- Wear closed-toe shoes and comfortable clothing you don’t mind getting dusty — goggles or sunglasses protect eyes from sand.
- Bring a small crossbody or secure pouch for essentials; loose items can fall off during the ride.
- If one person prefers not to drive, confirm with your guide how rider/driving swaps are handled to keep the pace comfortable.
Camel trek at sunset
A gentle camel ride timed for sunset with views across the Agafay landscape and the Atlas Mountains on the horizon.
Tips from local experts:
- Mount and dismount slowly — follow the handler’s instructions and hold the saddle handle for balance.
- Dress modestly for the camel ride and dinner that follows (shoulders and knees covered is typical local practice).
- Bring your camera or phone with a strap — sunset lighting is brief, so be ready to capture the view quickly.
Pool time — desert-view pool access
Short period to cool off and relax at the camp’s desert-view pool before dinner.
Tips from local experts:
- Bring swimwear in a small bag; towels may be limited — check with staff on arrival if a towel is needed.
- Shower facilities may be basic; plan to rinse off and change quickly before the evening meal.
- Keep valuables secured in the vehicle or with staff; avoid leaving phones or wallets unattended poolside.
Traditional Moroccan dinner with live music & fire show
Shared traditional Moroccan dinner including starter (harira soup or salad), main (chicken tagine, couscous), pastries and mint tea, accompanied by live Berber music and a fire performance.
Tips from local experts:
- If you have dietary restrictions, inform the operator ahead of time; at arrival remind your server so they can confirm suitable options.
- Drinks beyond the included menu are available to purchase — have a small amount of local currency ready if you prefer bottled drinks.
- For a private-feeling moment, ask staff about a quieter table with a sunset view when you are seated (couples often request this).
Return transfer to Marrakech & drop-off
Comfortable return drive to your original pickup point or nearest accessible drop-off in Marrakech.
Tips from local experts:
- Driver will drop you as close as possible to your original pickup point; for medina riads that are not car-accessible you may be dropped at the nearest drivable location.
- Keep any valuables you used during the evening with you for the short transfer back; re-check seating area before leaving the vehicle.
- If you want photos of the night sky on the return, ask the driver for a brief roadside stop where it’s safe — staff can advise if conditions allow.
