We had an amazing camel ride experience! Everything was smooth and well organized from start to finish — we received a clear confirmation, the pickup was exactly at the agreed meeting point, and we were taken safely to the destination. The camels were real and well taken care of. Even though it was just the two of us and the weather was a bit unpredictable (sun and rain), everyone involved was truly engaged and did their best to make our experience as positive as possible. Highly recommended!

Our experience was fantastic! Ilias (our driver) was super punctual, kind, helpful, and precise. The quad experience was thrilling and adventurous, we had a ton of fun! When we got to the dinner spot, we had to wait quite a bit before eating, but then the dinner was tasty and authentic. After that, we enjoyed the fire show and traditional dances. Even though the experience lasted over 7 hours, since it gave us some time to relax, Ilias waited for us and was very attentive, always checking in to see how we were doing and making sure we felt comfortable. We loved this experience and suggest everyone give it a try!

We did a half-day quad ride in the Agafay desert. Our driver Ayoub Belgot safely drove us from the city center to the desert, where we hopped on the quads. He was super welcoming and gave us a nice ride. In the desert, we rode the quads and enjoyed a cup of tea in the camp. The views were stunning! Definitely recommending this for anyone looking for a bit of adventure during their time in Marrakech and a quick getaway from the city.
