Marrakech: Agafay Desert Quad and Camel Ride, Dinner & Show

Absolutely shocking. We have travelled the world, having visited well over 30 countries and done 100's of tours. This one, by far, was the worst experience ever. Our guide, if that's what you'd call him, was nothing more than an usher. "Go in bus, sit down" that's pretty much all we got from him. He spent the majority of his time on his mobile phone. No narrative from him on what was actually happening and when. That in itself, whilst poor, was acceptable however the bus trip itself was not. We were ushered onto a bus with so called "air-conditioning". What a lie that was. It was 52 degrees inside the bus for what was supposed to be a 40 minute journey. Our journey, well over an hour, closer to one and a half. He had his driver pull up at a hotel some 20 minutes into our trip and then inform us "we wait here for 5 minutes". No narrative on why at all. The bus, already a sweat box, had 16 passengers at this point, 16 adults waiting in a non air-conditioned bus, not for 5 minutes because it turned out to be 15. In searing heat for 15 minutes, only to learn he now wants to load tge bus up with another 4 passengers. Fine under normal circumstances but with no air-conditioning and then adfing anither 4 humans wiukd only exacerbate the temperature. We had a go at him and told him to get us water, a request he did not want to execute as he was well behind schedule by this stage. It was only when more than 10 of us were yelling at him to stop the bus so we can get water, did he do so. If he had his way, he'd of kept us sweating for the entire trip. He blaned the weather for the heat and denied the air-conditioning was not functioning. Upon arriving at our destination, our guide basically did zero other than to ask us if we wanted to do the camel ride, he gave us nothing narrativly. Outside of the above, it seemed his role was to servebus our meals, he did do this with very little love. To top it off, after our meals were finished/eaten he then provided us with bread. Really, bread now? I actually asked him if that was our desert. It was basically a useless and very poor tourist tour, absolutely atrocious. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY. I also called the tour guide operator, who was not interested at all in our feedback, so much so that he hung up on me and never called back, just shows you how professional this business is. Tread with caution.

Hello, I chose your service to avoid being too touristy (double the price compared to guetyourguide), yet we waited over 1.5 hours before the quad tour with them. Some even rode the camel, which was not included in their excursion... my son almost didn't get to ride the quad with us because there were no more spots available. As for Khadija, there were no issues except for the uncommunicated wait time on her part.

Great guide! Abdul was fantastic! Great bus and communication. Be aware, this is really evening only. We booked for 15:00 and got rescheduled for 16:30. Others on the tour booked for 12, 13, etc, but we were all grouped together at 16:30. Be advised in your planning they may switch your tour time.

Very good experience! We loved the dinner and the fire show. We would repeat again, no doubt!

Although we enjoyed the day very much and felt it was great value for money, we agreed that if we’d had a better idea of the venue then a degree of transparency would have lifted the rating to a 5*. The venue was a large area out in the ‘desert’ area with a beautiful backdrop. This venue also hosted the camel ride, the outdoor restaurant of which about 50% is covered. It also provides the location for the live local music/dance and fire show. The day we visited was a very busy day, at least 10 mini buses and a number of coaches. Over 200 tourists enjoying the experience. It was very crowded and on one occasion with our guide tempers were raised. Possibly over booking. However our guide handled the situation very well and very professionally. Our group ate outdoors which wasn’t a problem. Sadly, shortly after the singing and dancing had started the day was brought to a halt due to a massive thunderstorm. It was a good day, good value but areas for improvement we felt.

The gypsy was magnificent, we had a great time and the tour guide Aya was very kind and always very helpful, sure we will return in the next few days to live a new adventure with this company. I strongly recommend anyone to rely on them.

Trip was exactly as described. 20 minute camel ride, 40 minute quad bike ride and an excellent traditional banquet including musicians, dancing and fire eating show. Staff were all friendly especially our guide Khalid. Recommended!

This was such an amazing experience! Our guide was so engaging and nice. I remember being so cold that I wanted to skip the fire show and he gave me his jacket so I won’t miss it. I 100% recommend this tour!

From the day before the trip, a thoughtful message and reminder was sent giving me clarity and knowledge of who would be looking after me on the trip. Khalid was a fantastic guide fluent in English and French. He was humorous and considered all the needs of the part. The visit to the women who make Argen Oil was a treat, the camel ride was my first and enjoyable. Tarek was a phenomenal guide for the quad bike and so attentive and friendly. All the team at the dinner and fire pit with the singing and dancing plus the amazing fire show was just the perfect evening. I loved the swings and watching the sunset too. So many little unexpected surprises arose on this trip - nothing rushed just brilliant in every way. I wholeheartedly recommend this company and their team, such a fantastic experience for such a small cost. I would have paid double to have the experience as it was. 10/10 and 7 stars! Thank you Tarek and Khalid and our driver ! Merci Beaucoup

A superb experience a very decent price nice meal a big plus for the fire-breathing show ns a we love thank you yaya for your kindness tt the day
