Must do in Marrakech

Rosa_P, Aug 2022

We booked this tour based on reviews. I have to say it was amazing! Said and Mohamed were very friendly and nice to us. Views are breathtaking. It’s a must in Marrakech. We had a great time!

Amazing Experience

Rachael_W, Jun 2022

We didn’t know what to expect from this tour as there were so few photos and reviews. We picked this tour as we took our 1 and 4 year olds with us and wanted to be dropped door to door. Our driver was friendly and helpful (he kindly helped us carry our 1 year old up the steps!). When we climbed the steps to La Dune at the top it really took our breathe away, absolutely stunning views and a nice breeze so not too hot and plenty of shade. The staff were really attentive and helpful. We were unclear what food was included but enjoyed a small spread of snacks and requested watermelon for the kids. Based on how far away our hotel was we concluded that this tour was really good value for money and as our driver waits for us at the bottom he was immediately ready when we wanted to leave. I wouldnt suggest going on the tour if you have kids under 4 year old as ‘views’ aren’t really very interesting for them. If your kids are the chilled out type this would be fine, we took a few small toys up which kept them occupied for a while but sadly missed the sunset as our 1 year old kicked off. Another suggestion would be to arrive early if you want the place to yourself, we got there first and it felt really special to be there alone taking in the views from every angle. As we were leaving lots more tour groups were arriving. Overall this was an amazing and unforgettable experience, you just have to see the views for yourself photos don’t do it justice.

Volveremos

Experiencia sunset en el desierto fantástica. Said nos recogió en el hotel que acordamos, fue atento y amable. Llegamos a la Duna de Agafay en unos 45 minutos, el lugar es idílico, una puesta de sol maravillosa. Lo recomiendo 100%, nosotros volveremos.
