An incredible experience even for beginners like me who has barely ever ridden a horse! Farid was an amazing guide who was very kind, accommodating and patient. The horses are beautiful and seem to be treated very well

Horses well treated and...

Horses well treated and nice ride through palmerie desert out riding for 1 hour , transfers included from your hotel to horses and back

Anas was a great host....

Endless_O, Nov 2025

Anas was a great host. This was my second time riding a horse. I got to ride the biggest horse and he taught me Arabic during the ride.

A lovely activity with some amazing animals

Alison_W, Oct 2025

A lovely little adventure. I had a horse called Lady. They give you a brief overview how to ride them. Make sure you have a correctly fitted hat and then take you out and around the ranch. Was kind enough to photos and videos for you too. All speak a little English, but they are great at speaking French too. Once finished, had a traditional Moroccan mint tea - the best I tasted whilst there too. Beware of the sore bottom at the end. I walked a little funny

Great experience, great...

Oussama_J, May 2025

Great experience, great reception and great work. Thank you. Good Service, we will come again thanks

Great experience!

Grainne_R, Jan 2025

Suitable even for beginners and lovely staff. Well organised and good value for money. I highly recommend it.

Fantastic and welcoming experience

Malky_F, Dec 2024

We had a fantastic time doing horseriding at the Palmeraie during sunset. The team was lovely and very accommodating. Pickup was smooth and pleasant. When we arrived, everyone was friendly and welcoming. My friend and I are at different levels of horseriding ability, but they managed to accommodate us so we both felt comfortable and able to enjoy ourselves. They also took great photos of us on our phones, as well as having an on-site photographer who took images of us that we could buy afterwards. When we were done, we finished watching the sunset and had tea with the team. It was a lovely way to finish the day and we're very, very grateful for the hospitality ! ❤ Malika Downsides - communication about pick-up was delivered very late. They also don't speak English so well.

Great afternoon activity with my daughter

Ellen_H, Dec 2024

Great afternoon ride. Driver was friendly as we're people at stables and the guides that walked with us were also great. Mint tea was lovely!

Horseback ride

Marian_M, Dec 2024

My guide was the best he ensured that I went at a pace that was comfortable for me. We ende with tea

The experience was...

Michaela_M, Dec 2024

The experience was absolutely stunning. Each group has it’s own guide for the ride. Staff in the stable was welcoming and horses were friendly. Definitely worth a visit.

Great riding trip.

Charlotte_D, Nov 2024

My daughter and I really enjoyed this riding experience. The horses are well kept and the stables seemed well organised. Our guide Sofian spoke good English and took some great videos. It was a highlight of our trip to Marrakesh. Thank you.

Fantastic experience for all

Steven_P, Oct 2024

We really loved this trip. Communication was excellent, even after a slight hiccup on pick up. The setting was very interesting and pretty. Horses looked healthy and well cared for. It was my first time riding and I was very nervous but it was okay because we were amazingly well looked after and felt very safe. My daughter has more experience and was able to do more trotting and galloping so perfect for a range of experience. A great was to spend a few ours outside of the city centre doing something different. Would highly recommend.

Wonderful excursion, must do!!

Aswila_K, Sep 2024

Amazing staff, specifically farid (apologies if we have the name wrong)! Horses were well groomed and looked after and looked healthy. Farid was patient with us despite it being our first time horse riding. Lovely experience so happy we did it.

Book it

Carmen_J, Sep 2024

Great experience! The horses were beautiful and the handlers were all very kind and fun. The tea at the end of the ride was also a nice touch!

Hope they give me a refund. Wanted me to ride a horse in the sandstorm

Nawaz_T, Sep 2024

There was a sandstorm in marrakech . So we tried to cancel as it was a health and safety risk . And dangerous as the vision was also minimal. However the company said as they have arranged this we can’t cancel even if our health and safety is at risk. 134 pound down the drain.

Do it just for the excursion guide

Victoria_V, Aug 2024

I have to say that the excursion guide for the horse ride was the best, he was very kind and asked us if we were ok, he walked with us all the way, and every time took pics of us and smiling, and also he taught us some words in Arabic language

Amazing Experience

Aysha_C, Aug 2024

This was an amazing experience. We went with a 7 year old and an 11 year old and they each had their own horses. Our guide was so helpful and accommodating. Our transport guy was also very friendly and punctual. Would certainly recommend this!

Amazing!

sarah_h, Jul 2024

Due to the location of our Riad, we had to walk to a meeting point which wasn't far away. The driver was prompt and pleasant. On arrival to the yard we were guided to the stables and got to see some of the horses, they were stunning and all looked after well. We were given hats and off we went! Our guide took one of our phones and captured some fabulous photos and videos that we wouldn't have been able to get ourselves. Our horses were lovely to ride and perfectly behaved. Our guide checked if we were happy with walking or kicking it up a gear, which we were, so we had a lovely mixture of walking, trotting, cantering and even gallops in the stunning scenery! What an experience! I would highly recommend. When back at the yard they gave us Moroccan tea while waiting for our driver to come back. My friend and I love horses which the guys clearly spotted and let us spend more time with the horses and brought an Arab out for us to meet and take some more photos! The guys were phenomenal riders, looked after the horses well, and were really pleasant and friendly!

Never ridden a horse but very fun to do.

Tihami_M, Jul 2024

Me and my 3 friends went. All basically had no experience with myself never ridden a horse before. But within 5 minutes I had decent control of the horse and we were able to independently ride the horses through the villages (with the instructors walking next to us if needed). Also let us gallop on the horses which was really fun. Instructors really good and took great photos of us.

Worth it!!!!

Anh_H, Jun 2024

It’s an amazing experience. My first time riding a horse and it didn't feel scary at all. The employees were very friendly and helpful. I would definitely come back to do it again.

Safe and great fun in beautiful landscape.

Xavier_P, May 2024

Excellent organisation : started with whatsapp contacts to fix time for collecting us at the hotel. Very professional team with nice and quite horses. We really enjoy the journey and our guide took great photos for nice memories. Thanks to all of you.

A wonderful activity.

Jos_S, May 2024

This was absolutely phenomenal. The stables and horses are beautiful, the landscape is idyllic. The palmerie area is captivating and it gives you a chance to observe Moroccan rural life. Our guide was fantastic, and let us have a great time on the horses that matched our ability as experienced riders. They clearly care well for their animals - we also saw their race horses and donkeys. Doing this as a private tour has been a wonderful highlight of our holiday and we would highly recommend it. We went at 0900 and it was cool enough to wear a helmet comfortably, so would recommend going in the morning.

Would recommend

Matthew_J, Feb 2024

The horses are well treated, and the tour was really nice. Would recommend! The group size is small.

Lovely day

Stephanie_G, Aug 2025

Sofiane and the team at the equestrian center have been very caring with us. The experience was magical. I highly recommend this activity with friends or family it is only happiness!

Trevligt

lilian_j, May 2025

Blev kontaktade via appen kvällen innan. En vit bil hämtade oss och chaffören var trevlig och körde försiktigt. Väl på plats var hästarna redo och vi fick hjälp. Det såg välskött ut och rent. Killen som hjälpte oss var snäll och förklarade bra. Sedan avslutade vi med te och blev skjutsade tillbaka

Entspannendes Erlebnis

Magdalena_R, Nov 2024

Wir sind zu zweit eine Stunde ausgeritten und es war wirklich entspannt und die Pferde hören auf jeden Pfiff. Wenn jemand ein bisschen mehr Gas geben möchte, empfehle ich 2 Stunden. Insgesamt ein schöner Ausritt mit gepflegten und gut gehaltenen Pferden. Man merkt es wird respektvoll mit den Tieren umgegangen.
