100% Tailor-made | Private | Off the beaten path | All inclusive
Cruise through the unreal landscape of the Agafay stone desert outside Marrakech with its berber villages and gorgeous oases. Discover the 16th century coranic school still inhabited by the descendants of its holly founder and wrap things up with a delicious lunch in a luxurious camp in the middle of the stone desert facing the Atlas mountains.
Hit the road to reach a small quaint village located 20km south of Marrakech. Between the majestic snow-capped Atlas Mountains, a truly spectacular landscape passes in front of your eyes before reaching this very spiritual place.
A now private former Koranic school, a 'Zaouia', founded in 1584 is your first stop of the day and if you happen to ride on a Friday, take a stroll in the maze of the local souk.
End your adventure in the Agafay desert with a local lunch in a glamorous camp overlooking the Atlas Mountains before going back to your hotel by the main road.

We had the great fortune to have Nabil as our guide and driver. He arrived early and took our tour a bit longer - he was in no hurry to leave. Nabil was born to be a tour guide, as he had so much info. And he has been on motorcycles for half of his life - so no problems with his driving, either! We had many great conversations about the world and Morocco and Marrakesh, and he took us out to the Agafay Desert on the trip of a lifetime. It is unforgettable. We off-roaded quite a bit, which made it so fun.
Lunch at the camp in the desert was delicious, plentiful, and leisurely. Nobody was in a hurry to rush us out. Nabil was so patient and kind - we had to share a rough, barely-there paved road with buses and other vehicles, and Nabil was always the nice guy who made room for them rather than the other way around. He talked and talked - he has mountains of wonderful information about everything. There was never a quiet moment, and we never wondered what to say next - the stream of conversation just flowed. We had a lot of laughs and saw the most beautiful desert landscapes. Whenever we were interested in something, he would pull over to explain and so that we could take photos. What an outstanding human being! Nabil is the best! And this tour was the best we had in all of Morocco. If you are hesitating - stop it, right now! Just book it - you will be so glad that you did.

We went on an exciting sidecar journey to the Agafay desert, accompanied by Hamza who is both a super agile driver, and an excellent tourguide. What an amazing way to explore the wonderful scenery just outside the city of Marrakech.
Highly recommended !

Wonderful ride into the mountains outside Marrakech! Saw villages and glamp where we had a traditional lunch (included).
Best part was riding with Hamza, who shared his own experiences and insights on Morocco and the Arab and Islamic world. He was effusive and generous with this time and words. Highly recommend booking with him!

Exceptional day in the Agafay desert. A big thank you to Hamza for introducing us to these extraordinary landscapes and for his perfectly mastered driving on the slopes. This is the third time that I have taken a side car ride with Marrakech Insiders and each time it is a unique, unforgettable moment.

An exceptional and unforgettable day with the great “desert ride” of Marrakech Insiders! An absolutely wonderful team (hello to my driver #Mehdi) who made us have the best day of the stay. With that scent of adventure that only the sidecar can bring to this day. It's great... Don't hesitate..
