Private Excursion in the Agafay Desert
Description
A day from Marrakech, the Moroccan desert of Agafay is an easy alternative to visiting the Sahara desert further south. With this private tour, avoid the hassle of a self-guided trip and combine the Agafay Desert with a trip to the Atlas Mountains. Explore the Berber villages, drink a tea at home, go to an argan oil cooperative. Cross the Kik plateau, and finish with a 30-minute camel ride in the Agafay before finishing with a meal in a Berber tent. I have more than 42 years of experience as a guide, I can help you in all your excursion in Morroco. I live in the Atlas, near Marrakech city.

Enjoy beautiful panoramas during your ride from the plateau kik to the lake. Take a break and take pictures at the lake.

Return to Marrakech with stops planned to enjoy panoramic views and take pictures. We have time to stop anywhere you want, as we might pass next to traditional shops (artisanal jewelery, carpets, potery, ...)

An unforgettable experience in the Agafay desert. We took advantage of beautiful views of the Atlas before heading to the desert for quad biking through the rocky dunes. We ended the day with an authentic lunch in a Berber tent. Thank you Hamid for this exceptional program
Hamid organized a camel ride for us. We were about 1h on the road and had a lot of fun. Thank you.
A very nice experience. Hamid welcomed us very well at his house, the rooms are comfortable and very quiet. It is located on the route to Toubkal, allowing you to make excursions away from the chaos of Marrakech. The food at Hamid's is very good. I recommend:)
