Most booking platforms sell the Agafay camel ride with a hidden 20-30% commission — you pay more for the same ride. Here, the price shown (€35) is the final price, booked and paid directly with the local operator running it, not a middleman.
My name is Aziz. I've been running camel rides in the Agafay Desert since 2012, from my hometown of Tameslouht, 12 km from the site. Here's exactly what the ride includes, no surprises.
The Camel Ride Agafay costs €35 per person in 2026: 1 hour on camelback, round-trip transport from Marrakech, Berber guide and tea break included. Two time slots available each day (morning or late afternoon).
