Amazing!! - I had a wonderful opportunity of doing the camel ride as the sun set. The tour guide was very funny and takes plenty of pictures for you. The camel ride time wise was great for me as it can get quite uncomfortable if your on there for too long. We stopped off for some tea and nibbles and then took a ride back to where we had started. I would definitely do it again :)

Great way to start your morning. - Went on the early morning slot (9am pick up) driver was punctual and friendly. Got to palm grove shortly after. Everything was well run and the camels seemed well looked after. The ride itself was great fun and the staff were brilliant.Would definitely do it again.

Moroccan Camel Ride - Got to wear Moroccan berber clothing. Camels were docile and the guide was lovely. He made us a camel from palm fronds as we went round (see picture). Great experience though the area (Palmerie) was not very inspiring.
