      I loved it. Beautiful animals on a beautiful beach. Our gentle camels took us along the beach, through the shallow surf and back. Our guide Mustafa took lots of great photos and videos. Would recommend it - a really chilled way to spend an afternoon

      Mathieu_M, Jun 2026
      The tour was originally booked as a 1h camel ride, but decided to switch to the 3h experience; and I’m so glad I did! Mustafa was an incredibly friendly and knowledgeable guide, sharing local history throughout the ride. We enjoyed the best tea in Essaouira, along with olives and homemade bread and pastries prepared by his mom and sister. Mustafa also took amazing photos and videos that turned out incredible. Such an authentic, personal experience. A must-do!

It means a lot to know that you enjoyed discovering Essaouira’s landscapes, history, and local traditions with Mustafa. Sharing a moment of Moroccan hospitality with tea, olives, and homemade treats prepared by his family is exactly the kind of authentic experience we love to offer our guests. Thank you also for appreciating the photos and videos — we are glad they helped you keep beautiful memories of your time with us. We hope to welcome you again in Essaouira for another unforgettable adventure. 🐪🌅

      Julie_G, Jun 2026
      We have chosen the 1-hour option on a camel, which is more than sufficient. An experience to have; the guide was very kind and took beautiful souvenir photos. We do not regret this activity.
