Proposal guide
How to Plan a Surprise Desert Proposal in Morocco
Why Propose in the Moroccan Desert?
A desert proposal feels completely private: no crowds, no neighbouring tables, just the two of you, a beautifully styled setting and a sky that turns gold at sunset. It is a moment your partner will never forget, and the photos are just as unforgettable.
The Perfect Spot Near Marrakech
Our proposals take place in the Agafay desert, about 40 minutes from Marrakech, so the surprise fits easily into a city break. If your trip includes the Sahara, ask us about proposals in the dunes around Merzouga.
Keeping It a Secret from Abroad
You plan everything with us by WhatsApp or email while you are still at home in Europe, the UK or the USA. We prepare a cover story, such as a simple sunset dinner in the desert, so your partner suspects nothing. On the day, our team handles the transfer, the decor, the musicians and the hidden photographer.
The Best Time to Pop the Question
The best moment is golden hour, just before sunset, for soft light and beautiful photos. Spring and autumn offer the most comfortable temperatures; in winter, bring a warm layer for the evening.
Practical Tips
- Keep the ring in your hand luggage when you fly.
- Tell us about any allergies or dietary needs for the dinner.
- Share your partner’s style and favourite colours so we can match the flowers and decor.
How Much Does a Desert Proposal Cost?
Our proposal packages start from €1,200 for two (about £1,040 / $1,380). Extras such as a sunrise hot air balloon flight, a camel trek or a quad excursion can be added. Contact us with your date and we will send you a personalised quote.

What is the most popular place to propose in Marrakech?
The Agafay desert at sunset is one of the most popular choices, along with riad rooftops and palace gardens. The desert, about 40 minutes from the city, gives you the most privacy, with a setting prepared only for the two of you.
Can we hold hands or kiss in public in Marrakech?
Discretion is advised in public places in Marrakech, especially in the medina, where open displays of affection can draw attention. Our private desert camp gives you complete privacy, so you can enjoy the moment freely.
Do we need to be married to share a room in Morocco?
No. Foreign couples are welcomed as guests at hotels and desert camps across Morocco, including our private camp. Rules can be different when one partner is a Moroccan citizen, so we advise those couples to contact us first.
How do you keep the proposal a surprise?
We plan everything with you privately by WhatsApp and prepare a cover story, such as a sunset dinner or a desert excursion, so your partner suspects nothing until the moment you propose.
Is it cold in the Agafay desert at night?
Yes, in winter the Agafay desert gets cold after sunset. We provide heaters and blankets so you stay warm and comfortable all evening.
Can we bring our own photographer?
Yes. Just let us know when you book, so we can plan the timing and the hidden spots for the surprise together. A hidden photographer is included in our starting price, and we can also arrange a videographer for you.
How far is the Agafay desert from Marrakech?
The Agafay desert is about 40 minutes by car from Marrakech. We organise private transfers from your hotel or riad.
Can you arrange our flights from Europe or the UK?
Yes. We arrange flights to Marrakech from across Europe and the UK (Paris, Milan, Rome, Madrid, Barcelona, London and more) through our partner travel agency, as well as your stay in Marrakech. Our prices exclude flights, so they are quoted separately.
Do you speak my language?
Yes. Our team and guides speak English, French, Italian and Spanish, so your family and guests can enjoy every moment in their own language.
