A memorable ride. - If you want to tick the box, camel ride at sunset, then you won’t be disappointed. The area is not like the true desert, but is only a short drive away from the city centre. The camels look well taken care of and you can see the owner really adores his camels. The staff are really friendly and they take you for a long walk around, and also take excellent photos and videos for you. Would highly recommend the experience

Amazing - This was a fantastic experience from start to finish. We were picked up by our driver Marwan at our chosen destination, he was chatty and told us lots about Morocco and even stopped to get us water on the way! The camel ride was so much fun, we got lucky and it was only the 2 of us on the ride. Hamzaha our guide was hilarious and made the experience unforgettable!! We rode Pablo and Vicky and could tell they were well loved. Stopped for some tea and bread in a village as well. Definitely recommend this to anyone wanting a little trip out of the busy city and wanting to spend time with the loveliest animals! Great value for money

One of a kind experience! - Truly a one of a kind experience! Marwan was an excellent driver, very punctual, and very knowledgeable about Marrakech. Hamza was our guide on the camels and helped make it a memorable experience. He made sure to stop for all the best photo ops and made us a fun souvenir from some palm fronds that we’ll have forever. The stop at the Berber tent was great, we had delicious mint tea with olives and bread. Again, a very one of a kind experience I would recommend to anyone visiting Marrakech!

One of a kind experience! - Such a wonderful one-of-a-kind experience! Marwan was our driver and very knowledgeable about Marrakech. Once we arrived, Hamza was our guide during the ride to and from the Berber tent. He made the experience memorable and made sure to stop for all the photo-ops. Once at the tent we had delicious mint tea, olives, and bread before heading back on the camels. The ride finishes while the sun is setting, such a beautiful back drop! Can’t recommend this tour enough.

Amazing experience - We were lucky enough to find Marouan as a driver, who is great. He dropped us off at the palm grove, then we met Hamza and Jamal who accompanied us throughout the walk. Very good exchange with Hamza, who taught us some Arabic words. He also took several photos/videos. Jamal guided the camels at the front and made us pretty rings out of palm leaves. It was my best experience during my stay in Marrakech. Choukran bezaf Marouan, Hamza and Jamal!

Very nice experience! - We had already done an activity with Attractive Tours. What a pleasure to find Marouan again! Arriving at the palm grove, we meet the two guides, Jamal and Hamza. They put on a Tuareg dress and a cheich. After a 30-minute camel ride, we take a short break in a Berber house where we taste olives and mint tea. We leave for a 30-minute walk with the sunset. During the trip, Hamza takes photos and videos of us and Jamal makes us a ring in the shape of a camel with palm leaves. Once again we had a great time in the company of Marouan as well as Jamal and Hamza. Thank you !

What an excellent excursion! - Jamal, Hamza were amazing guides, Marwal an excellent driver. Pickup was timely which was greatly appreciated. Then it was a ~15 minute ride into the palm grove, where we were dressed into berber clothes (optional), followed by a 30-minute camel ride to a tent where we were served some delicious mint tea and snacks. Then back on the camels again, this time for almost an hour, to ride in the sunset. Time flew by as we took in the beautiful scenery and the sunset. Hamza and Jamal both took tons of pictures on our phones. Very highly recommended!

Nice experience - Nice experience to do when in Marrakesh. We all had a dromedar each and rode to a house where we had some tea and snacks before heading back in the sunset.

Palm Grove Marrakech - We enjoyed this excursion, Marwan our driver waited for us at a meeting point that was convenient. Marwan stopped quickly at a local shop and even bought us two waters before arriving in the Palm grove. We went around 6pm so the views were very nice and not too hot. The tea and bread in the village was also very nice, thanks again to our Camel guide Hamza, he took photos of us and made sure we were taken care of.
