Chez Ali – Something Magical

A fairy-tale setting has been created in a desert landscape on the outskirts of Marrakech.

Berbers in traditional costumes serve local specialties under canopies with soft pillows, while we enjoy the music and dances of the various tribes that have inhabited Morocco for centuries.

Next, we witness equestrian competitions and horse races featuring purebred Arabian horses, reminiscent of the sheikhs of the Orient.

Torches flicker as belly dancers sway to the rhythm of the desert.
