The organizer usually tells you when and where to pick it up. It is best to pick up your luggage no later than three hours before sunset in Marrakesh. This leaves plenty of time in the camp to see everything before the sun starts to enchant the landscape.
The tour operators usually have meeting points near Jemaa el Fna. The trip takes place in comfortable off-road vehicles or minibuses. It takes about an hour to get there. Transfer to Agafay Desert. If the conversations with the driver run out of steam, then sounds from the radio set the pace of the journey.
If you don’t like Berber music, we recommend listening to the Moroccan hit parade on Hit-Radio Marrakech. Sometimes they sing songs from their own country, but in Arabic.

With music playing on the radio, the many construction sites of the city fly by to the left and right. Even though the building sites look bleak, large advertising signs say that there will soon be a new standard of living here. Donkey carts, rickety bicycles and mopeds with up to four people on them are still part of the street scene. Just like the olive and orange groves and eucalyptus trees farther away, outside of the new buildings.
