Start your Marrakech Camel Ride

Once there, your friendly local guide will help you dress in traditional Touareg scarves and robes, not just for photos but also to protect you from the sun — and yes, it makes you feel like a true desert traveler.
After a quick introduction to camel riding, hop onto your gentle camel and follow your caravan through dusty paths and palm-lined trails. As you sway with the rhythm of your camel, enjoy views of local farms and Berber villages where time seems to slow down. Your guide will share stories about the people who live in the area and how they’ve preserved their traditions.
Midway through the camel ride Marrakech, you’ll stop at a small Berber house for a refreshing glass of Moroccan mint tea. Relax in the shade, chat with your guide, and take in the peaceful desert vibes.
