As the evening progresses, all through the dinner, various folklore troupes pass through the tents dancing, singing and generally animating the evening. This impressive evening comes to a fitting finale with the Fantasia show. Watch acrobats on Arabian horses firing rifles and demonstrating traditional forms of military combat. Then follows horseback acrobatics, a belly dance and suddenly up in the night sky a Sultan and his favorite fly to the stars on their magic carpet, as the evening comes to its end.As you watch the performance, enjoy a sumptuous meal of authentic Moroccan food, comprising of Harira soup, Mechoui (slow roasted lamb meat), Couscous with fresh vegetables, and a platter of fresh fruit served to you under traditional Caidal tents.

The evening is a traditional multi-course dinner including:The place is a bit of a Disney version of Morocco but fun and reasonably priced. A good evening out especially for families and groups of friends. "Yes it is kitsch and a pastiche of traditional Moroccan culture, but the clue is in the name 'Fantasia'. It's not meant to be an accurate anthropological study, but a 'fun' evening of entertainment."
