Unforgettable Sunset Camel Ride!
Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and an incredible photographer who captured amazing moments throughout the trip. The camels are calm, strong, very comfortable to ride, and love affection and treats.
Starting around 4:30 PM (late September) was perfect—the sunlight over the ocean made for stunning photos without waiting for complete sunset. The route along the beach, over dunes, and through the bushes was peaceful and uncrowded. Traditional clothing and turbans are provided, which look great in photos and protect against the wind.
A 2-hour relaxed, highly recommended experience!

Fantastic 2 hour sunset camel ride lead by Hassan. Excellent communication via WhatsApp with Khalid to book and confirm date/time/location. Fabulous photos taken for us by Hassan. Well cared for camels named Sultan, Cappachino, James Bond and Blanco were our rides. Highly recommend.

A wonderful family memory
While on holiday in Essaouira, I messaged Khalid on WhatsApp to enquire about the possibility of an hour ride with my 4 year old daughter who had her heart set on riding a camel. Neither my husband nor I had ever done it before so we did not know what to expect! Khalid messaged back immediately and was so kind and helpful from the beginning. The ride itself was so much fun and the camels we rode were lovely. We are home now and my daughter is still talking about it and asking when we can go back. Thank you Khalid for a great experience and fun memories!
