What you can expect

Climb aboard a “ship of the desert” on this fascinating tour through the incredible palmgroves of Marrakech. Trek with a dromedary camel through authentic villages and oasis-like landscape. Then enjoy a delicious glass of mint tea in a Berber home.

Leave the hustle and bustle of Marrakech behind you and go on a half-day adventure. According to legend, this area was the site of a military camp, where in the evenings, soldiers ate dates that had been carried from the pre-Saharan oases. The discarded pits fell into holes left by lances that had been thrust in the ground. Thus, the palm groves of Marrakech were planted.

Donning your cheich (protective turban veil), you and your sturdy new one hump dromedary friend trek safely through the palm groves past villas, deluxe properties, and Berber homes. Sit back with a refreshing glass of mint tea at the home of one of the local Berber families before heading back to the city.
