For a change of scenery during your visit to Marrakech, there’s nothing quite like a camel ride through the palm grove. Experience camel trekking, a tradition practiced since the Middle Ages in the Marrakech desert, particularly in the palm groves.
So, if you feel you need a break from exploring Marrakech, and you’re ready for a change of pace after visiting the palaces, museums, and souks of the medina, and you’d like to follow the ancient caravan routes, then this camel trek in Marrakech is the perfect activity for you, your family, and your friends.
Children and adults alike find the experience of a camel ride in Marrakech delightful. They feel the gentle touch of the camels and are reminded of the days when camels were the primary mode of transport for trading caravans.
Children under 8 years old are advised to ride with an adult.
You can choose to experience this Marrakech camel trek as a half-day excursion in the morning or as part of the afternoon program.
Your driver will pick you up from your hotel or riad in Marrakech and take you to the palm grove where you will meet the camel caravan.
We provide you with a shesh (traditional shawl) to protect you from the sun. You’ll have time to take photos with the camels, mount your camel, and embark on your trek, where you’ll marvel at the palm groves, desert landscapes, dried-up riverbeds, and small villages. A cup of mint tea will be served to you in a Bedouin tent while you take a break.
After your camel ride in Marrakech, you will be taken back to your hotel or riad.
