About the Tour
Agafay is a stony desert of bare hills, with no sand dunes, between Marrakech and the High Atlas. On a clear day the mountains stand behind it, white with snow in winter. It is the closest place to the city where you can spend a night at a desert camp.
The camps here have large tents with proper beds and private bathrooms. A camel, quad or horse ride at sunset can be added.
