    Essauria camel ride

    Clare_S, Oct 2025
    Great experience along the beach. They provided clean, fresh traditional clothing. The guide took great photos as well

    Professional service....

    Thai_N, Aug 2025
    Professional service. Efficient communication via WhatsApp. Picked us up at the designated place. The camel ride by the seaside was a pleasant one, very exotic for us. The guide was great, took great pics and video clips for us. We were also provided with the traditional attire to protect from the sand. Totally recommended in Essaouira!

    A must do in Essaouira

    Colleen_A, Apr 2025
    This is a must in Essaouira! Wow! What an amazing experience. They were on time to pick us up. Ahmed communicated with me every step of the way. I even had to change times for our camel trek and it was so easy. Emil our guide was fantastic with a great sense of humor and photography ability. This was one of the most fantastic experiences of our entire trip!!!

    A lovely ride along the beach with views of the beautiful coastal town of Essouira. Friendly camel man and driver. Meeting point was easy to find.

    Nice guide and camel ride, good communication.

    Marijke_v, Dec 2024
    Nice guide and camel ride, good communication via WhatsApp about where to meet. The camels where very sweet and my son(8yr) was able to ride his own camel too.

    The best!!

    Natasha_B, Dec 2024
    Amazing experience! Our guide was so lovely and an awesome photographer, by far the best photos we've had all trip. He was so great when we wanted to make an unplanned stop so one of our friends could propose to his girlfriend, then helped us get some memorable pics of that. Best money we've spent all holiday.

    Wasn’t Sure, But WOW

    Marcus_O, Dec 2024
    I wasn’t sure about doing a camel ride, seemed touristy and kinda lame. Turned out being quite the opposite. We rode at sunset with the beach and islands as a backdrop and it was beautiful. Our guide, Ahmad, took wonderful photos of us, told a few jokes, wrapped us in Berber clothes, which accentuated the experience. An hour was the right duration for the experience. Would absolutely recommend to friends and family.

    Friendly guides, lovely terrain and relaxed experience.

    Jose_S, Nov 2024
    We were picked up promptly at the agreed location and time. Ahmed was super helpful with all the arrangements. Our guide Ihmed was also very helpful, friendly and took lots of amazing photos for us. The terrain was lovely and peaceful as the waves crashed on to the shore.

    Great experience getting to ride camels for an hour! We did this as a group of 6 and it was perfect as we were able to enjoy it as our group and get photos together etc. our guide was very friendly and helpful.

    Healthy camels, great experience

    Kate_P, May 2024
    Very nice experience - camels seemed healthy and well treated and the guides were friendly and took great photos for us. Would recommend. Safe, fun and a beautiful setting

    Magical experience on a camel at sunset

    Sharon_B, Apr 2024
    Incredible experience from start to finish! Communication was quick and easy and the pick-up and drop-off was seamless. We were provided with authentic attire which really made the camel trip come to life, especially in photos. We went right at sunset and had amazing photos taken and truly enjoyed a magical experience. Our tour guide was friendly and was making sure we were happy the whole time. Highly recommend!!!

    Great 1 hour trip at the beach

    Emil_A, Apr 2024
    Amazing trip! Had an entire hour by ourselves with a camel convoy. The camels were well behaved, looked healthy, well-tended to, and most of them were talkative. The camel behind me walked right next to me and loved getting scratches during our ride. We got a lot of great photos of us and the camels during sunset by our guide, Iman (as I recall his name).

    Wish Fulfilled

    Jesus_T, Sep 2025
    A wonderful experience, we took the time of 19:00 and we could see the sunset taking a camel ride along the beautiful beach of Essaouria, during the trip we have done more camel rides and certainly this has been the most spectacular, when we return we will repeat without a doubt!!
