This is everything that you want in a camel ride. The camels were well behaved and friendly. Our guide Mohammed was fantastic. He had the camels trot for a while, we had a long walk, he took great pictures and even made a music video of us. He was knowledgeable about the Amazigh culture and answerd all our questions. It was a fun amazing time.

Good communication during pickup, they were absolute sweethearts. My mother had the greatest time. Thank you dearly.

Very easy and great for the kids. About a 40 minute ride from Marrakech. Super guide - Osamar.
Camels were lovely and we also got introduced to a bay camel

Excellent communication and service door to door. Driver was very friendly. Great experience. Well worth the price.

It was good on balance. Good points: amazing scenery, well looked after camels, decent length trek but not too long. Bad point: guide uninterested in anything other than staring at his phone on the trek vs telling us anything about the animals, the surrounding etc (which we’ve had previously).

Going from the buzz in Marrakesh it was a really refreshingly tranquil experience. We rode up and down on the hills with the snow covered mountains in the snow covered Atlas in the background. The goudes were very friendly and welcoming and took a lot of photos for us. The dromedars were nice too and there was a cute baby one too.

The pick up time was about an hour before the advertised time and we were informed of this only a few hours before. I didn’t check my phone so didn’t get the message on time. A bit stressful trying to reconfirm a later time but we did manage to. Would have been great if we were given a time the day before or at least first thing in the morning!!!
The ride into the dessert took about 45 minutes, which I found to be a little long for an activity which was only going to be for an hour!!
Mohamed took us with the camel and it was quite fun. He was very friendly and took loads of photos and videos for us.
All in all it was quite fun especially if you haven’t rode on a camel before.

Mohamed was a great tour guide. The driver picked us up right at our Riad and took us to the excursion.

We really enjoyed our time on the camels in the palm trees. The trip was well organized, we were picked up from our residence. Two others joined us, so there were just the four of us. Our ride was about 1 hour long, and very enjoyable and relaxing. The guide was very friendly. At the end, we sat down for some mint tea. It was about 2 1/2 hours in total , which was perfect.

Prompt pick up from our hotel, lovely young man/guide during the camel ride. Was informative and took lots of photographs for us.
Csaba_G, Oct 2025
We had a very relaxing experience. The pick up was on time and we knew beforehand what vehicle to look out for. Mohammed who took us for the camel ride was very nice guy and took a lot of photos and videos for us. Hopefully we will return in the future - probably the most welcoming people we met in Marrakech.
Thank you

We had an awesome time with the camels. Mohammed was a great guide and very kind to the camels. Highly recommend this activity to anyone. We also learned a lot about the history of the Land of God and the Dromedary camel (the ship of the desert)

Had a good time riding the camels, wasn’t too long to make our legs hurt. There were very nice views and the tea after was very refreshing and was served with some sweet crackers. The ride to the destination was maybe 20-30 minutes from the pickup point.

We had an amazing experience on our camel tour in the Agafay desert! I went with two friends, and it ended up being just the three of us, which made it feel very private and special. The owner was extremely responsive and helpful in arranging everything, and you can tell how much care goes into looking after the animals – they are very healthy and well-treated. The ride itself was beautiful and so picturesque, with plenty of time to take in the desert views.

We booked this camel ride as a last-minute activity on the same day. I contacted the organiser to ask about the pickup time, and received a reply very quickly via the app. We were picked up from the hotel and taken to the activity area. We were given traditional clothes and scarves to wear, and we were then started the camel ride which lasted almost a full hour. The guide offered to take plenty of photos and videos of us, which was highly appreciated. When we finished, we were offered mint tea, and we were taken back to the hotel. Overall, it was a fun experience, which I believe would appeal to people of all ages, who would like to come in contact with such amazing animals. We would highly recommend it through these organisers, who were communicative and very friendly.

The whole experience was amazing. From the hotel pick up to the excursion Khaled our tour guide was exceptional. Yassine lead the tour whilst on the camels and made myself and our family very comfortable at all times. Took loads of pictures for us and I truly truly truly recommend you book this excursion for yourself and family
Flora_K, Jun 2025
Absolutely amazing experience, one of the best things I have ever done. We were picked up from the pick up point which is very convenient and easy to find. We were provided with clothing, they took plenty of photos of us and tea and snacks after the camel ride. We had a fantastic time, I cannot recommend this experience enough.
Karen_N, Jun 2025
I had a wonderful time on this camel ride. The tour guide was excellent, friendly, knowledgeable, and explained everything clearly. The ride itself was smooth and enjoyable, offering beautiful views along the way. Pick-up was right on time, which made the whole experience stress-free. After the ride, we were served some delicious mint tea, which was the perfect way to relax and end the tour. Highly recommended!

This is a really nice experience. The driver and the guide were awesome. I'd recommend it to anyone.
Samuel_H, Apr 2025
Amazing experience, flexibility with pick up from Riad and the tour guide was excellent. He took photos and videos of us while we were on the camels.
Dora_N, Mar 2025
Everything perfect organised. Pick up on time. Super friendly people. Took care of us in the best way :)
ChrissyBnL, Mar 2025
Picked up in a nice modern vehicle by friendly driver. Took our group out to the desert. The camels are further than a lot of other groups so it’s quiet which we liked. Great ride, amazing photos, finished with tea and biscuits. Would recommend
Boris_C, Mar 2025
Very efficient pick up
Driver was prompt and very nice
The camel ride itself was very comfortable just what we were looking for
Definitely good option for the price
Cornelius_C, Mar 2025
Had an excellent time. Two of the best people that we met in Marrakech. Very hospitable. From beginning to end. From pick up at the hotel. He even took us to the Medina’s. We loved our experience with them and when we return we will definitely use them again.
Julie_R, Feb 2025
Great, fun experience. Our guide was super patient and answered all our questions. He went above and beyond and finishing off with a cup of tea in the palm grove was the icing on the cake. Highly recommend this trip. I also left my shoes in Khalid’s car and he returned them promptly which was really helpful.
Lucille_A, Jan 2025
Great experience! Short drive from the city about 25 minutes. Friendly driver. Hassan was a great guide.
