Agadir or Taghazout beach horseback ride with hotel pickup, small groups, and guide photos at golden hour. 90 minutes.
“The best end to our holiday. Very friendly ranch with horses that were obviously well cared for. Welfare for them is clearly a big focus. The ride was brilliant. As a rider I was able to gallop whilst the members of our group who hadn’t ridden were supported to walk and trot if they wished. Time and effort taken into capturing incredible photos and videos on the beach and a nice small group. Would definitely recommend to anyone whether you ride or have never ridden.”
Ride quad bikes in the Palmeraie, then slow down on camels with hotel pickup, safety gear, and traditional dress for about 3 hours.
“We began our trip with the quad bikes. There was only me and my partner there which made the trip a lot more personal, we had a brilliant ride through the desert and through dirt tracks. Our transfer then took us to the camel rides where again it was only me and my partner, our guide was brilliant, we had a great laugh and he even gave us personalised nicknames lol. He took lots of great pictures and videos that will last a life time. Would definitely recommend for anyone, couples or families this was a brilliant experience. At the end of the camel ride we got a cup of…”

“This was my first time surfing aside from trying it once as a child and Abdul made it so fun and and easy to learn, just gave the basics and let us go and try and checked in throughout to see if we had any questions. If I had more time in Essaouira I would be going back here for sure. Beginner friendly as well as experienced surfers!”
Ride a 125cc quad along Essaouira’s Atlantic beach and big dunes at Cap Sim, with gear, snacks, and free guide photos included.
“This was a great activity. The staff gave a great training demo & it was clear they took safety seriously. Our instructor was excellent & took photos the whole 2 hrs which were sent to us free of charge. If there was one downside, it was the beach rubbish. You name it we saw it. If only all the beach operators, buggies camels, motorbike, horse excursions (there are a lot of companies profiting here) got together & organised a beach clean every now & then I'm sure would make a huge difference to their clients experience.”
