About an hour from Marrakech, a particularly magnificent walk begins in the traditional village of Douar Oulad Elguern. Once in the air, you will pass through villages, farmland and see the Jbilet mountains from the top. Thus, savoring the unique experience of a hot air balloon flight over Marrakech can only be an experience not to be missed.

Exceptional equipment maintenance and careful planning combine to provide a magical hour of trekking above the millennial city of Marrakech.

Palm tree circuit - Drive slowly - Admire the scenery

La Palmeraie offers a quiet escape from the bustling souks and bustling streets of the old medina. The most prosperous district of Marrakech has often been nicknamed the "Beverly Hills". Calm and sunny oasis of palm trees and orange-lined boulevards, manicured rose gardens and expansive swimming pools, La Palmeraie is home to the city's most extravagant experiences.

The picturesque district is an interesting detour from downtown Marrakech, lined with 32 hectares of palm groves which provide a shaded setting for leisure activities. Walking, biking, horseback riding, and camel rides are popular pastimes, and there's also a beautifully located golf course next to villas, resorts, and hotels.

From camels to quad bikes, the Palmeraie has at least 163 circuits waiting.

Take a walk in the magnificent Mechouar of Marrakech, a shining page in the history of national resistance.

Renowned for its spas and remarkable sites such as Avenue Mohamed VI, Mechouar-Kasbah is a pleasant and relaxing region that has many surprises in store for you.

Since you don't want to miss a single detail, drive slowly to enjoy the dreamy landscapes.

Drive, enjoy the free scenery,

Get off the beaten track to discover Agafay, a stone desert. Discover the magic of an astonishing landscape made up of magnificent white dunes, just thirty kilometers from Marrakech.

This illuminated immensity offers many possibilities for walks, in addition to exceptional accommodation with a touch of nomadism. The Agafay desert, an escapade that will remain etched in your memories ...

Stop by the artistic works of painting for a photoshoot
For travelers coming to Marrakech, we often recommend leaving a little room for surprises. As you drive towards the Agafay Desert, you will notice a sign indicating "Tameslohte". Tameslohte became known after the graffiti art festival "The Tameslohte Street Arts Festival". The graffiti is spread all over the village, so your challenge is to capture them all. And don't forget to tag @visitmarrakechregion every time you snap one.

For gourmets, the camp cooks compose a unique daily menu for all diners. Typical Moroccan cuisine, refined and tasty. Scarabeo Camp favors seasonal fruits and vegetables to rediscover the authentic taste of Moroccan delicacies.

Camel ride in the desert and discover a hidden oasis
Riding a camel does not seem the same as being on the means of transport, it is a unique experience. As the camel rises, you will feel a rapid movement back and forth. However, camel rides are much safer than vehicles. During the ride, you can expect to feel unsteady, as you will need to be at an angle directly on top of the bump. The ride itself will be a bit bumpy, but likely smoother than most horses.

If you feel like the trip is fun, wait until you arrive at your destination. When you are in an oasis, few people on earth will be happier than you.

Rest in your beautiful tent
The hotel camp is made up of 15 accommodation tents, including 8 double suites, 2 twin suites and 5 family suites spread over a large area and lit by candlelight. It is possible to add additional tents for special occasions (weddings, birthdays, receptions ...).

Watch one of the most impressive sunsets in the Agafay Hills
The connection with nature, locals, animals, everything about your stay in Agafay is going to be magical. The stony desert with a splendid view of the hills resembling sand dunes will allow you to enjoy a spectacular view of the sunset while sipping a cup of mint tea.

We know how much you want to start out there in the desert, but we miss you here in Marrakech.
