2.Marrakech Palmeraie: Camel Ride at Sunset

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 835 reviews · 2 hours · from $20

You’ll be collected from your Marrakech hotel or riad and taken to the Palmeraie for a one-hour sunset camel ride. Guides such as Hassan, Hamid, and Mohammed help with the traditional jilbab and Saharan scarf, take photos, and explain camel travel. Expect a relaxed outing, mint tea afterward, and a city-edge setting rather than open Sahara dunes.

“Absolutely amazing experience! Driver picked us up from the hotel very promptly and the trip was just a 10 minute drive away which we were pleased about. The camels were so happy and looked really well looked after. The camel ride itself was just long enough and we even saw some other camels free roaming. The guides took photos of us and answered our questions. Sunset was amazing got some brilliant photos. We had some tea at the end and some more photos with the camels. They were so lovely and friendly you could pet them and they genuinely seemed so happy. One of the best trips I have done…”

“If you come to Marrakech you should certainly do this trip and if you are lucky enough to get Hafid as your guide then it will make the experience even more pleasurable. He was always in hand throughout the trip to provide guidance and advise as well as make the journey to and from the Desert great fun with his choice of music in the bus. The camel ride is incredible a must do to make your desert experience complete. Add that to the food and entertainment and the trip is excellent value for money.
