Kamelritt in der Wüste von Marrakesch

Best day out on the whole holiday. We had a great walking tour of the atlas mountains with an amazing lunch in a local home, the best Tagine you can get. Followed by a camel ride at sunset, absolutely magical. Our driver Ali was so friendly and helpful and was happy stopping every now and again for a panoramic photo opportunity. He even went out of the way to show us the best view he knew of and wow.... incredible!

A little nervous being a lone parent however I was put at ease the moment I contacted Muhammed before we arrived in Morocco. I contacted him by email to ask about the meeting point, best way to get there and costing etc and he was very quick to reply and very helpful in his response. We were kindly met at our hotel for a reasonable fee. Consider uk taxi rates for a 20 minute drive and back and this was very very well priced. I was conscious about our attire and wishing to be respectful as possible to the locals so we were pretty covered however we were dressed gowns and head dresses so next time I will likely wear shirts and vest or t-shirt rather than trousers given the temperature We arrived at the camels, very excited to see the calves also. After dressing in the gowns and headwear, Myself and my 5 year old were able to share one and my 11 year old went on one solo behind ours after the staff took plenty of lovely photos for us on my phone. Off we went with Diile our guide. I wish I knew more Arabic or French to express how happy we were. It was lovely to see many other camel parties on our ride around the Groves. There was a man ok a motorbike with a lovely pro camera offering to take lovely large photos with morocco flags and writing on the print for 20 dirhams. Unfortunately I only brought enough for my taxi, otherwiseni would have purchased one. We could see the mountains in the background. There was a lovely breeze to cool us down a bit also. The ride itself was very comfortable and I even had the camel behind by my leg so I could give it a nice pet ???? Diile stopped to take some more photos for us which was very kind. Before we headed back to our patch. We arrived after 1hr and removed our lovely traditional clothing, sat down and enjoyed the tea. I had 3 lots and my children weren't keen. I personally enjoyed it. It was sweet and reminded me of a Minty honey like texture and flavour. I would definitely get in touch with this provider next time we visit morocco ???????? Thank you for the most amazing experience

Fantastic camel ???? ride experience this morning with Tilila travel. Great guide and lots of photos and videos. Highly recommended
