  • 5Camel Ride with Khalid

    Great experience! Highly recommend going for a camel ride with Khalid while in Essaouira. Not only are the guides very friendly, the views are amazing and the camels are lovely - at least Cappuccino and Chocolat were :)

  • 5essaouira from a different point of view

    I highly recommend this tour if you want to take a leisurely, evening stroll by the water and explore the dunes of essaouira while benefiting from towering height of a camels back. Everything was arranged smoothly, easily and correctly by whatsapp with quick response times. They also took plenty of time for stops and helped take lots of pictures.

  • 5Unforgettable 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!

    It was an amazing experience! Hassan and the guide were great. And the camels were lovely and gentle. Cappacino is my favourite.

About Essaouira

Essaouira is a windswept Atlantic port in Morocco, a walled medina of blue boats, ramparts with old cannon and craftsmen working in thuya wood.

Essaouira was laid out in the 1760s under Sultan Mohammed III, who had a European engineer design a fortified port with a grid of streets inside high walls, now a UNESCO World Heritage site. The Skala de la Ville, a rampart lined with bronze and iron cannon, looks over the Atlantic, and the harbour below is crowded with blue fishing boats and screaming gulls. Orson Welles filmed scenes of Othello here.
