Great time with Amine! - Great experience even for a beginner. Amine was a great guide and helped me and my friend get comfortable on the horses. He also took a lot of nice photos and video for us to remember the experience, which I really appreciated a lot. It was a lot of fun and a great memory. I would definitely do it again in the future the next time in visit Essaouira and I would recommend to others!

More than riding – an experience for the heart ❤️🌅 - Galloping beauty, free as birds. I can heartily recommend this inspiring experience. The horses are excellently trained, beautiful and very well maintained. You can immediately feel the special connection and communication between them – simply impressive! My daughter and I had the opportunity to ride several horses. I was so inspired that I even wrote a poem about Balios and whiskey ❤️‍🔥 The ride was perfect, and the boys from the stable – once again a huge THANK YOU for your warmth, professionalism and hospitality! 🙏 We weren't treated like tourists or customers, we were treated like friends. This made our stay in Essaouira even more memorable.

Rookie! - Booked a two hour sunset ride. They asked how much experience I had riding (which was VERY minimal) and paired me with Oscar, who anyone is lucky if they get him. I started the tour with the group and felt my feet weren’t in properly, so the guide, Hamza, was kind enough to stop and help immediately. Up until this point I thought I wouldn’t be able to do it. So happy I stayed with it because best experience on the trip! I was very lucky to have Hamza and a “private” experience with just the luck of my booking. Hamza helped me SO much with teaching me how to properly ride Oscar and was very patient with me (same with Oscar :) ). A great mix of walk, trot and galloping. I was able to gallop a few times, but Hamza would always make sure I was ready and comfortable and never pushed me too hard! Overall amazing experience with Hamza and Oscar and absolutely breathtaking views they take you on. Worth every penny. Thank you!!!!

Most amazing experience 🏇🌊🌅 - An absolutely unforgettable experience! Riding along the Moroccan beach at sunset felt like a dream — galloping into the golden light with the ocean beside us was pure magic. The whole experience was beautifully organized, and the photos and videos captured every special moment perfectly. I hadn’t ridden a horse in 20 years, yet by the end I was confidently galloping along the shore. A very special thank you to Hamza, who was incredibly kind, attentive, and supportive throughout the entire ride. He made sure I felt safe and comfortable at every moment. Everyone was welcoming and helpful, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Essaouira — truly a once-in-a-lifetime memory! 🪽💖🌊🏇

Thanks, Anass! - Thank you Anass for your kindness, we had a great time with some beautiful galots in the dunes and especially the beach. I am struck by the beauty of horses in Essaouira.

very nice - superb if you are an advanced rider. they ride out with you and let you freely gallop on the beach. take beautiful pics and videos. if you are a beginner or with kids - less fun as you have to go at a slow pace with a guy walking and holding the horses the horses are amazing !
