What to expect

The heat of the day is gone by six in the evening, which is the right time to be on a camel. This is the sunset version of our camel ride, and it ends at a table rather than at the hotel gate.

You ride out through eucalyptus and across the scrub toward the Souss river, where the light goes orange and the birds come in. The pace is slow and there is time to look around. Camels are measured about walking; nobody is asking them to hurry.

Back at the ranch there is mint tea and a barbecue, cooked while you sit. You are dropped off afterwards, usually around half past nine. It suits anyone who wants the ride without giving up an entire day.

Frequently asked questions

How long is the ride?

Around an hour and a half of riding, within an evening that runs 18:00 to about 21:30.

Have I got to have ridden before?

No. The camels are steady and a handler walks with you. It is slow and there is nothing to learn.

What is for dinner?

A barbecue at the ranch, with mint tea. Tell us about allergies or dietary needs when you book.

What should I wear?

Trousers you can sit in and closed shoes. Bring a layer, because the temperature drops after sunset.

Is it suitable for children?

Yes. Children ride with the handler, and the early evening timing suits them.

Is this the same as the daytime camel ride?

It covers similar ground, but it starts at six for the light and ends with a barbecue at the ranch.
