The Long Table · Agafay
Forty minutes from Marrakech, the Agafay plateau offers two experiences designed specifically for retreat groups: a full immersion day and a private evening under the stars. Both are entirely managed, all-inclusive, and private.
All-inclusive · One group per session · 2 to 40 participants · Partner commission available
Day Experience · 10h to 16h
The day begins in the hands of local artisans: a pottery session in the traditional manner, forming clay under quiet instruction in the Agafay light. From there, a camel ride carries the group across the plateau, the stone desert stretching in every direction.
A guided desert hike follows through the ochre terrain, with group activities woven into the afternoon to connect and ground the retreat. Then comes the feast: a whole mechoui slow-roasted over open embers, Moroccan meze, fresh bread, and pastries served under the open Agafay sky. Private transfers from Marrakech are included throughout.
What is included
Evening Experience · Sunset to Midnight
As the afternoon cools, camels carry the group through the golden light of the plateau at the hour when the desert changes colour. The whole mechoui has been slow-roasting over embers since mid-afternoon: the scent reaches the group long before the table comes into view.
The feast unfolds with Moroccan meze and the mechoui carved tableside, accompanied by live Gnaoua music that deepens as the evening progresses. When the last light fades, a professional stargazer guides the group through the constellations: the Agafay plateau is among the darkest skies within forty minutes of a major city, and on clear nights the Milky Way is fully visible with the naked eye. Private transfers from Marrakech are included.
