3-Hour Desert Picnic – A Taste of Tranquility Under the Moroccan Sky

Escape the city and step into serenity with our 3-hour desert picnic experience just outside Marrakech. Surrounded by sweeping views of the Agafay Desert or palm-dotted landscapes, this experience is designed for those seeking calm, connection, and authentic Moroccan hospitality.

Your journey begins with a scenic drive from the city to a carefully chosen picnic spot in the open desert. Upon arrival, you’ll be welcomed with traditional Moroccan mint tea before settling into a beautifully set-up lounge area featuring low tables, Berber rugs, and cushions, creating the perfect atmosphere for relaxation.

Enjoy a delicious picnic spread featuring a variety of Moroccan flavours – from fresh salads and olives to grilled meats, warm bread, and seasonal fruits. Vegetarian and vegan options are also available on request.

As you dine, soak in the peaceful silence, the golden desert light, and the gentle breeze. There's time to wander, take photos, or simply lie back and gaze at the open sky – far from the crowds and noise of the city.
