Guided camel
The drive to Agafay usually takes 30 to 45 minutes depending on the pickup point and traffic. The stone desert begins where the city ends, with the Atlas Mountains as a backdrop.
The guide helps each participant onto their camel, then leads the group at a walking pace across the rocky plateaus of Agafay. The pace is slow and calm, the opposite of a motorized ride — a different way to take in the scenery.
Return to Marrakech after the ride, with memories of the desert captured at the camel's pace. Direct transfer to your hotel.
