Marrakech: Chez Ali Fantasia Dinner Show with Transfers

There's a reason Chez Ali has stayed a Marrakech classic for decades.

Under a lantern-lit caidal tent, a full Moroccan feast unfolds — and just as dinner winds down, the desert outside comes alive with the thunder of galloping horses.

This is the Fantasia show: riders in traditional dress, firing rifles in perfect unison, framed against the night sky. It's loud, dramatic, and unlike anything else in the city.

Good to Know Before You Book

• Dress warmly for the evening — desert nights get cool, even after a hot day in the city.
• The Fantasia show involves rifle fire — loud, but a normal and expected part of the performance.
• Vegetarian options are usually available on request — let us know when booking.
• This is a popular, touristy experience by design — go in expecting spectacle and tradition, not an intimate dinner.
• Book a few days ahead, especially during high season, as showtimes can sell out.
