Sunset Camel Ride en el Palm Grove de Marrakech

Nicely organised friendly excursion Fun to do was within 20 minutes of Marrakesh great experience but not the prettiest of views

The driver never showed up. We confirmed with a phone call the day before and waited but they never showed up to collect us

I was very nervous as it was my first time doing a camel ride and I found how tall the camels were slightly intimidating. Our lovely guide Hamza made me feel safe as his knowledge of the camels was abundant and the animals were very well kept. I didn’t want to ride the camel on the way back because although I am very glad I did it once I didn’t want to get back up on the camel. Hamza was very kind and let my mum and myself lead the camels back and I really enjoyed this too.

If you want to ride a Camel, this is the best experience! The ride is not too long and the people in charge are super cool! The lady serving tea is the loveliest and very kind! Thanks guys!

While in Morocco, my friend and I decided we wanted to try a camel ride. We definitely did not want to do the 4+ hour camel ride into the desert; that was too long for us. We just wanted a taste of riding a camel. This excursion was PERFECT for just that, and at the right price. The whole thing was about 2 hours (including pickup/drop off) and was only $38 per person. We rode the camels for about 30-40 minutes (more than enough time in my opinion, b/c my bum started to get sore towards the end). Note, you are not riding in a desert technically. You ride through the "Palm Groves" which is a giant sandy area with palm trees that is between hotels and Berber neighborhoods. So, if you are wanting a ride thru the Sahara desert, that is not this. Our guide (Zechariah? Zalaryia?) was AWESOME!! You'll see him in the green hat in the pictures. He was energetic, kind, helpful, and made sure we all a) stayed on the camels, and b) got amazing pictures. He took turns using all of our phones to take fantastic pictures of our group so we came away with great memories. He also made us a little souvenir camel out of grass (see pictures). We got mint tea and cookies in a little tent in the middle of the ride. I highly recommend this excursion if you are just wanting a 'sample' of camel riding.

Our guide was very welcoming and extremely charismatic. He kept cracking jokes and making sarcastic comments. Though the route was not very scenic, the sunset was nice and our guide took lots of pictures. Definitely an experience worth having. The mint tea and cookies at the end were also a nice touch.

This tour actually met my expectations, which are generally too high. A van picked us up with blasting air conditioning. The tour was private with just my group so we felt comfortable taking silly pics and enjoying ourselves. The guide was super kind and friendly, willing to engage in every Insta moment. The host family also very sweet. Because the ride was at sunset, the temperature was tolerable and very enjoyable. The duration was perfect. I would not have wanted it to be any longer. Don't forget to tip the guide and the host family. I saw people before us not tip, and I was like how tacky. I wish I could review other tourists... ;-)

Excellent evening. The staff were super. The camels were well looked after. The pick up was on time. Everyone had a great time. A must in Morocco!!

Very nice excursion worth living. Our guide in the palm grove a was great! Small downside regarding the punctuality of the driver who arrived very late and the weather because we did not have a sunset that evening! Otherwise very nice visit.

The guides were very welcoming and informative, a good experience if you want to escape the city for the evening. The location of the tour isn't great, lots of hotels are being build obstructing the view a bit. Still a really good time and would recommend!
