Choosing activities for your group

For an adventurous half day, choose a quad or a buggy. For something calmer that suits every age, a camel ride. For a moment to remember, a balloon flight at sunrise. And to recover from all of it, the hammam.

For a full day out of the city, see our excursions from Marrakech. Restaurant tables, private chefs and transfers are arranged by our concierge team.

Questions guests ask

Can we combine several activities in one day?

Often, yes. A camel ride and a quad or buggy session fit well into the same afternoon, and a hammam is a good way to end a day that started with a balloon flight. Tell us what interests your group and we suggest a plan.

Are the activities suitable for children?

Camel rides and the hammam with a parent suit most ages. Quads, buggies and balloon flights have age and size requirements set by the operators, which we confirm when you book.

Is transport included?

Tell us where you are staying when you enquire, whether it is one of our villas, a riad or a hotel. We confirm how you get to each activity, and whether a transfer is included, with your quote.

Planning activities for your group?

Tell us your dates, the number of guests and the activities that interest you. We reply with a plan and a quote.
