Luxury holidays in Agafay Desert

When to go

Summer is sweltering, but spring and autumn hit the sunny sweet spot – October, November and February are when the in-the-know go.

Getting there

• Planes

  Marrakech Menara Airport is a 15-minute drive from the city centre. Fly there directly from London, Paris and other major European cities. From there, it’s a 40-kilometre drive to the desert.

• Automobiles

  It’s only a 40-kilometre drive from Marrakech; arrange a four-wheel-drive tour from the city and hop on an all-vehicle (including hoofed) excursion through the dunes once you’re there.
