Camel Ride Agafay Desert Everything You Need to Know

Your Camel Ride in Agafay Desert begins the moment you arrive at our camp, located just 30 km south of Marrakech. Our team welcomes you with traditional Moroccan mint tea before introducing you to your camel. Our experienced Berber handlers assist you in mounting safely and comfortably, whether you are a first-timer or have ridden before. Once in the saddle, you set off across the rocky plateau of Agafay, following ancient Berber trails used for centuries by nomadic traders. The ride typically lasts between 30 minutes and 1 hour, depending on the package you choose. At the camel's slow and steady pace, you have time to absorb the silence of the desert, admire the bare hills sculpted by erosion, and take in the panoramic views of the High Atlas Mountains. The sunset session is particularly magical. As the sun drops behind the Atlas peaks, the rocky landscape turns golden, then deep red. It is, without doubt, one of the most photographed moments our guests experience. Our guides are always on hand to capture photos for you throughout the ride. Prices start from 200 MAD per person. The Camel Ride is available as a standalone activity or as part of our full desert packages. Children are welcome from any age.
