Experience in the desert
antov762, October 2026
It was a wonderful experience.
The entire organization was perfect.
Hotel pickup is available.
Two pit stop more interesting for a buy a argan oil e for a picture on the desert.
But the last pit stop was wonderful because in the middle of desert we were dinner and after the dinner with sunset, we has watch a show of music and the show with fire.
Ilias (the us guide) it's a gentleman.
Thanks for all.

Wanderlust4897, October 2026
Itinerary:
1)Met Ilias near Medina approx 3/4pm.
2)Picked up other groups
3)Stop 1 - Women's Coop selling herbal medicine, oils and almond butter
4)Stop 2 - Agafey desert view - mint tea served
5)Stop 3 - Dinner location on hill edge with views of sunset.
6)Included : Starter - Soup, Main - chicken tagine and couscous. Drinks - water
Soft drinks also available at additional price.
7)Entertainment - During dinner - traditional berber musicians
After dinner - mini disco and fireshow.
8)Return - around 9.30pm.
Review - Arguably the best £18 I have ever spent. I was nervous about what we would be getting for this price but the evening did not disappoint. Ilias was great at keeping us informed about meet up points before hand and also on the day. He came round and checked in on each mini group regularly (but not invasive) and then even whatsapp'd at end of night to make sure our group had returned to hotel ok as we had asked to be dropped off at a different location.
Women's Coop - great opportunity to learn how products are made. Absolutely no pressure to buy anything though.
Entertainment - top notch from the dancing at the disco to the fire show and the traditional music. Again, no pressure to tip (but we did!).
Food was served efficiently and hot.
Communication - we got a WhatsApp night before to confirm details of the trip. Then clear updates about where exactly to meet. Then ensuring we were all ok at each point. Excellent customer service overall.
We went in with very low expectations given the price. I feared it would feel a bit "touristy" as this seems to be THE thing to do on a trip to Marrakesh but I was surprised at how well organised it all was. Given the landscape of the dinner location, you didn't feel on top of each other and so our group felt we had a nice intimate space and enjoyed the beautiful sunset. Plenty of opportunities to "join in" with dancing and traditional music but respectful if you said no.
A definite recommendation if you are looking for a trip out of the city and don't want to do a very long trip out.
