Marrakech activities: Camel ride tour Marrakech
Description
Kids and adults alike can enjoy camel riding just a few minutes’ drive from Marrakesh. Camels, known as the ‘ships of the desert’ are remarkable animals and offer a relaxing way to enjoy the peace and quiet of the palm grove in Marrakesh. On this 3-hour camel ride adventure, you will escape the city of Marrakesh and explore the countryside, following in the footsteps of caravans that have done so for centuries. Don a traditional scarf (protective turban veil) and ride through authentic villages and green palm groves, where you will get to observe how the locals outside the Marrakesh city center live. Along the way, stop for a break to enjoy sips of lovely mint tea, surrounded by the unique landscape of sand, palm trees, and grass.

This is perfect for anyone who wants a short and fun ride on a camel. Although not in the desert the surroundings are adequate for great photos. My host picked me up at the train station and waited to return me to my Riad.
The good news: the camel ride itself was great. Absolutely a fantastic and interesting experience. The bad news: they say the price includes pickup in Marrakech, but they wanted to charge 100 dirham (10 euro) extra because I don't stay in the city centre. After my maroccan friend discussed with them, they waived the extra costs, but they changed the time (booked at 10, they said they could only add me to the 15u group). They arrived 45 min late to that later time, for pickup, without communication, and without us being able to reach them. All of this changing the agreement after booking was quite stressfull, and without my maroccan friend who could discuss things in their own language it would have been drama. The camel ride itself was only 1 and a half hour, which was fine, but not the 3 hour ride that was advertised. I can absolutely recommend a camel ride as an outing, once I was on the camel it was great fun. But getting to that point was a drama.
Hello Why lying to the audience when you book a 00h00 activity Youvwere outside our pick up zone by almost 8km so its clearly that you will have to pay the extra fee We even suggest you to be pick up from the medina since you didnt want the xetra fee but you refused Paying just 100dirhams its logicaly with you outside the medina and far away from palmerie (the camels place) will certainly look a far distance for you
Alae was an excellent driver Chair was a very friendly guide. And the restaurant also had good food. And the visit to the ramparts is very beautiful. It’s a shame that not everyone can benefit from the benefits of tourism.
he is a good guide tour and is on time super hood and is very nice and is a very excellent driver clean car
Memorable wonderful moment. They provide traditional costume, and our guide was very helpful, two thumbs up.
Very good day under the sun, nothing wrong, a little thought to our driver Zaza of a kindness and availability that deserves to be emphasized
Amazing experience! Our driver was excellent! We had a wonderful journey. All round we would highly recommend! Thank you 😊
