My friend and I had so much fun on our camel ride. Dressing up in Berber clothing and having more delicious mint tea was one of the highlights of our trip. Abdul was a fantastic host. He greeted us near our Riad with his warm smile and welcoming personality. The guide for the camel ride that he had assigned to us was exceptional as well. Abdul even sent us a video of us returning on our camels. He ended our tour with a box of delicious treats for us to take back to our Riad. I would definitely book another tour with his company.

We went to Agafay...

LhoujerraMarie_B, Apr 2024

We went to Agafay yesterday and it was an impeccable experience for me and my girls. Plus our driver Abdul has successfully driven us to Agafay with kindness and hospitality. He was very thoughtful and considerate.

A great evening!

Lisa_S, Apr 2024

Wonderful from start to finish. My spouse convinced me to ride a camel, and this was a highlight of our Morocco trip. The sunset dinner and bonfire afterwards was very enjoyable, too. Very well organized, not too crowded. A great evening.

Cheesiest tour I've ever been on. Major tourist trap.

Marcia_S, Nov 2023

This tour went all sorts of wrong. First the tour operator forgot and asked us to reschedule the next day. We did but it messed up our itinerary. The stop at the argan oil place was interesting. The camel ride was a joke - the first camel stop was full so we went to the next camel stop which is where you also eat dinner. By the time we got there is was getting dark.. So what was supposed to be a 30 minute camel ride turned out to be a 15 minute ride and we all had to ride double on the camel. The dinner was actually pretty good but the show after was a hot mess. it was four young men pounding on drums, singing and dancing around very badly - not entertaining at all. I do not recommend this tour. Invest your valuable holiday time elsewhere.

Best stars in the desert, tasty food, well organised

Ali_M, Sep 2023

Well organised, we were picked up on time by very careful driver in a 4x4 who answered all our questions on the way to the desert. The camel ride was just the perfect amount of time for us since our priority was the sunset dinner. Do wear something you don’t mind getting dirty (dust and sand get everywhere) and bring a jacket or hoody (it gets chilly and windy after sunset). We took this tour after the devastating earthquake and to show respect there was no music show ( I totally support and agree). We gathered by the fire and shared travel stories and riddles instead. Thank you for having us, stay safe!

Amazing sunset tour, family of 5 with small kids

Ewa_W, Jan 2023

We had a wonderfull experience with Karim who was our guid. We got all the details including photo of the car before, and Karim replied to all sir questions on the way, gave us so many fun information , answered our kids questions ( 3 girls under 7). The experience itself is wonderful , the setting about 10 mins from a 100 people village , with local happy , well taken care of camels and local people helping. The tent, food and photo ops are stunning, and they even had a donkey so my little ones could play with him in the meatime. Over all great organisation and could not recommend it more! thank you guys!
