The staff was friendly and entertaining. One of the guides was singing for himself and I found it quite fitting for the whole atmosphere. Another guide made small camel models out of palm tree leaves, which the kids loved😀

Fun experience

Julie_T, Nov 2024

We really enjoyed this camel ride across the palm groves, it was well organised and the staff were very friendly. Our guide took lots of photos and a video and there was little pressure to tip etc so we did and handsomely, it was very appreciated.

Give this a go - it’s well worth the money!

Demi_S, Jul 2024

Best excursion in any country I have ever booked or paid for. Very much worth the money! You are given protective clothing for your head and your clothes again the sun and sand, and the mint/green tea after the camel ride is sweet and flavourful! Cannot remember the name of our guide, but he made us rings shapes like camels and took countless videos and photos of us completely free! Wish we had given him some extra cash as a thank you!

Camel Trek

Mathilde_C, Apr 2024

We both had a great time camel trekking around the Palmeraie. Our guide was very friendly and took some fun pictures of us on the camels. Overall a great experience which we recommend to join.

Camel trekking

Devonlouise_S, Mar 2024

Booked this as something we both have always wanted to do. It was a fun experience and we laughed from start to finish and got some great photos

Fun affordable experience

Beth_P, Dec 2023

Fun short, affordable camel riding experience. Exactly what we were looking for. Our guide, Abraham was a delight. Funny, patient, kind to the camels and us and took lots of photos for us!

Excellent camel ride

Sophie_F, Sep 2023

Wonderful experience. Our driver was waiting for us at the meeting point in a lovely air con car and drove us to Palmerie. Once there our Berber guide was so enthusiastic and fun and the camels looked in very good condition. We had a long walk around the Palmerie area led by the guide who took photos for us and even added a soundtrack. After dismounting the camels we are given mint tea and could chat together before being driven back to the meeting point. I highly recommend this trip as it was such a relaxing beautiful experience.

Wonderful camel trek

Juliana_Y, Jul 2023

Fun experience. Our guide was very nice and took amazing pictures and video of us while we rode. You get to wear traditional Moroccan clothing and headscarfs during the ride which is very helpful with keeping the sun off of you.

Loved this experience.

Harry_J, Jul 2023

Absolutely loved this camel ride experience. So chilled out and relaxing. Our guide, Aziz, was lovely. He was singing the whole time and made us these woven camels out of palm leaves. Got lots of photos and videos for us and couldn’t have done anything more. 5* you need to do this.

Great experience!

Stephen_F, Jun 2023

Excellent and very hospitable! The trip was booked last minute and they were happy to accommodate. Everything was on time without issue!

Ibrahim - best host

Mary_O, Nov 2022

Thanks to Ibrahim, we had a great time. He was great host and made us feel welcome and the ride interesting, highlight of my trip!

Basic camel experience just outside town

Francesco_M, Oct 2022

Friendly staff but location quite honestly felt artificial. Also the experience felt rushed and schedule changed at short notice

Marrakech camel ride

shawn_A, Oct 2022

The camel ride operators! They were funny, friendly and helpful. It was just an hour not too short not too long, just right!

Best experience ever

Elizabeth_E, Oct 2022

Could not upload images but if I could they wouldn’t have done this amazing experience any justice. Absolutely incredible from start to finish, excellent transfers in a mini bus with air con, friendly and helpful hosts. Clean outfit to put on upon arrival, and the camels were so friendly! Plenty of ride time and our guide was so helpful and friendly and took 100’s of photos for us! Half way round he took a small leaf and made it into a camel and it was such a kind gesture. Didn’t want to leave I could of stayed there all day, mint tea was provided upon arrival back from our ride and the opportunity to meet the other camels and have photos with them too.

Wonderful

ayeni99, Oct 2022

Fun

Cheryl_T, Sep 2022

Very friendly tour guide and made us camel shaped rings out of leaves. He played music during the camel ride.

Fab camel ride

JYOTI_P, Aug 2022

Hamid our guide was brilliant. He sang whilst doing our camel ride, he took more than enough photo’s for us & lastly made wonderful keepsakes out of plants for the children. Would highly recommend :)

I would not recommend it

Silvia_S, Aug 2022

The 50eur were not worthy. We took this activity for the reviews but it was just one hour ride on a dromedary in a place full with palms.

Camel ride in the palmerie

simonecorrine, Jul 2022

Camel Ride

Jennifer_A, Jul 2022

Camels were amazing, so well look after. We rode for approx 1 hour, plenty of time for photos and finished with tea. Was a lovely afternoon. Only downside was minibus transport had no aircon which made it very hot.

Best excursion

Charlie_G, Jul 2022

All round amazing trip. 10 minute drive to camels from hotel (be live collection) an hour on camels where they stopped every so often to take pictures for you ect. One of the men made little handmade keep sakes on the way around and the other man sang. All around best trip for us.

Amazing!

Daisy_K, Jul 2022

Really fantastic experience! The guides that took us around were really friendly and was nice to hear all about the camels, you can tell they are very well took care of. Would absolutely recommend.

Excellent experience.

Alma_J, Jun 2022

Personnel were very friendly. That treat animals very well. Having a family of camels walking with us was precious.

Great experience

Rachael_W, Jun 2022

We were picked up from our hotel and taken right to the camels which was very convenient given the heat and because we were travelling with kids. The camels were being fed as we arrived and as we left which made us happy they were well looked after. The camels were really well behaved and the kids (age 1 and 4) loved riding them. Our guide was incredibly friendly and willing to answer the millions of questions about camels from our 4 year old. Thanks so much! We had a blast!

This was a fun experience...

Samuel_W, Jun 2022

This was a fun experience and good value for money. The guide was friendly and even made us some palm leaf souvenirs. My main feedback is the pick up was confusing - I didn't get confirmation if we would be picked up at our Riad or cafe de France which it said on the ticket. Maybe in future this could be made clear to avoid confusion? Overall a great excursion.
