Mustapha shares with us his love for Morocco and animals. Gentleness and nothing else to guide his camels, who respond well to him. A day out of time and a night under the stars.
We had booked a day dromedary ride with an overnight stay in a Berber tent and were able to ride on the Mogador and Atlantic with Mustafa as our guide. On our way to the eucalyptus forest, Mustafa pointed out many native plants. We took a relaxing break in the shade of the trees. Mustafa had prepared two delicious salads and grilled fresh chicken skewers for us over an open fire. There were even bananas and apples for dessert. The way back along the Atlantic offered us a beautiful view but we were pretty exhausted when we reached the ranch again (a total of around three hours of dromedary ride was more strenuous than we thought). From the ranch we drove with other travelers to the Berber tents (each travel group had its own tent) with a view of the Atlantic 🤩 In the evening, since we had already had chicken for lunch, we had a really delicious tagine with beef and vegetables (the other groups each had a tagine with chicken and vegetables, they really thought about it here) and we were also served the typical delicious mint tea, orange juice and fruit. The atmosphere in the tent was only topped by the campfire with a full moon and (drum) music. The toilet tent was a little adventurous. We slept very well in the tent at night, our worries that it would be cold at night were completely unfounded! In the morning there was a delicious breakfast with a large selection. Mustafa and his colleagues were very friendly, accommodating and reserved. If we come to Essaouira again, we would book the overnight stay in the Berber tent again (and a short dromedary tour ;) ). :) thank you very much for this great experience :)
Excellent experience! We highly recommend this ranch, clean, pleasant, with attentive, helpful and experienced staff. The walk was memorable, the guide Mustapha remarkable, very gentle with the animals, excellent photographer and funny! Services far above other ranches in Diabat. We found the night in the tent very pleasant, the bed surprisingly comfortable (Moroccans are very good at bedding!), the evening meal and breakfast excellent. This is THE ranch to choose in our opinion.
We had a very nice ride with the dromedaries across the coast line. Amazing views. Dinner and breakfast were delicious. Definitely would recommend!
It was an unforgettable experience. Mustafa, our attentive and experienced guide, wanted to entertain us with his extensive knowledge of flora and fauna. The welcome was warm, we met one of the owners, who was very friendly. The trips were well organized and efficient. The little touch of Westfalia was great 👌 An activity to do again!!
Magical moments thanks to the Diabat ranch team, the camel, the quad in the dunes, an unforgettable bivouac thanks to Mustapha!!! The whole team is adorable and gives us unforgettable moments. On vacation in Essaouira you must pass by this ranch for your activities. Thanks to them !!
Our guide was wonderful. He took a lot of pictures of us and made sure we were comfortable at all times. The food was delicious. Spending the night at the camp was a once in a lifetime experience!
Very enjoyable trip. Our camels were very well treated and gentle. The dinner was excellent - the best tagine I have ever tasted. The environment, both the ranch and the camp, were nicely presented. Definitely worth the cost. I accidentally left my keys and they were returned to me very promptly. A lovely group of people.
Beautiful experience with Mustafa. He is a beautiful person, very respectful of his animals and with a lot of knowledge. We love learning from him and spending a night with him at the Berber camp. The rest of the staff were very very friendly too! For the camel ride, plan a sweater because when the wind blows it is not hot!
This was our first trip to Morocco and Essouria was the perfect location While there we did the 3 hour dromedary and overnight stay. I cannot say enough kind words about our experience. Everyone was gracious and the ranch itself was beautiful. The dromedary ride was peaceful and Mustapha was extremely knowledgeable and eager to share and answer questions. The overnight experience was superb. Just an amazing experience and I highly recommend!
