Mustapha, the man who whispers to the camels!
Mustapha shares with us his love for Morocco and animals. Gentleness and nothing else to guide his camels, who respond well to him. A day out of time and a night under the stars.

An overnight stay like in 1001 Nights
We had booked a day dromedary ride with an overnight stay in a Berber tent and were able to ride on the Mogador and Atlantic with Mustafa as our guide. On our way to the eucalyptus forest, Mustafa pointed out many native plants. We took a relaxing break in the shade of the trees. Mustafa had prepared two delicious salads and grilled fresh chicken skewers for us over an open fire. There were even bananas and apples for dessert. The way back along the Atlantic offered us a beautiful view but we were pretty exhausted when we reached the ranch again (a total of around three hours of dromedary ride was more strenuous than we thought). From the ranch we drove with other travelers to the Berber tents (each travel group had its own tent) with a view of the Atlantic 🤩 In the evening, since we had already had chicken for lunch, we had a really delicious tagine with beef and vegetables (the other groups each had a tagine with chicken and vegetables, they really thought about it here) and we were also served the typical delicious mint tea, orange juice and fruit. The atmosphere in the tent was only topped by the campfire with a full moon and (drum) music. The toilet tent was a little adventurous. We slept very well in the tent at night, our worries that it would be cold at night were completely unfounded! In the morning there was a delicious breakfast with a large selection. Mustafa and his colleagues were very friendly, accommodating and reserved. If we come to Essaouira again, we would book the overnight stay in the Berber tent again (and a short dromedary tour ;) ). :) thank you very much for this great experience :)

Highly recommended, the best ranch in Diabat in our opinion
Excellent experience! We highly recommend this ranch, clean, pleasant, with attentive, helpful and experienced staff. The walk was memorable, the guide Mustapha remarkable, very gentle with the animals, excellent photographer and funny! Services far above other ranches in Diabat. We found the night in the tent very pleasant, the bed surprisingly comfortable (Moroccans are very good at bedding!), the evening meal and breakfast excellent. This is THE ranch to choose in our opinion.

Excellent trip
We had a very nice ride with the dromedaries across the coast line. Amazing views. Dinner and breakfast were delicious. Definitely would recommend!

Super Magnificent
It was an unforgettable experience. Mustafa, our attentive and experienced guide, wanted to entertain us with his extensive knowledge of flora and fauna. The welcome was warm, we met one of the owners, who was very friendly. The trips were well organized and efficient. The little touch of Westfalia was great 👌 An activity to do again!!

3 hours Camel Ride in Essaouira with Dinner and Overnight in Berber Camp: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Essaouira.
How much does 3 hours Camel Ride in Essaouira with Dinner and Overnight in Berber Camp cost?
+
Prices start at $209 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Essaouira usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 3 hours Camel Ride in Essaouira with Dinner and Overnight in Berber Camp take?
+
Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Essaouira is not rushed.
Is 3 hours Camel Ride in Essaouira with Dinner and Overnight in Berber Camp worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 17 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable family friendly in Essaouira, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 3 hours Camel Ride in Essaouira with Dinner and Overnight in Berber Camp?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is 3 hours Camel Ride in Essaouira with Dinner and Overnight in Berber Camp suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 3 hours Camel Ride in Essaouira with Dinner and Overnight in Berber Camp?
+
Around 6 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Essaouira can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Essaouira and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 3 hours Camel Ride in Essaouira with Dinner and Overnight in Berber Camp start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Essaouira within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Essaouira?
+
On Outty we rank every Essaouira experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include 3 hours ride on camel at sunset, 3-hour camel ride at sunset, Essaouira: 2-Hour Beach & Dunes Quad Tour with Tea. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Essaouira?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Essaouira?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
