Yes — the tour departs from Marrakech with private pickup and return by air-conditioned 4x4 or minibus as described in the booking details.
The typical camel ride is about 1 hour at a relaxed pace timed for sunset; shorter or photo-stop-only options can usually be arranged on request.
Luxury tents include private bathroom facilities; amenities are comfortable but can be more basic than urban hotels, so expect limited hot-water pressure at times.
