Full Day Riding Adventure in Sidi Kaouki & Sunset Photoshoot
Your Moroccan dream begins with a full day of riding through some of the most beautiful scenery in the Essaouira region. We will explore majestic landscapes including:
- sweeping golden sand dunes
- wild and untouched Atlantic beaches
- hidden waterfalls and dramatic coastal cliffs
- romantic trails through argan forests and countryside
- charming Berber villages
There will be plenty of opportunities for long stretches of trot and exhilarating beach canters… and for experienced riders, thrilling gallops along secluded sandy shores.
In the late afternoon, the magic unfolds with a professional sunset photography session.
Gallop along glowing beaches as the sky turns gold and pink. Ride along the shoreline, feel the ocean breeze in your hair and let the photographer capture cinematic images of strength, elegance and pure freedom.
In the evening, relax and unwind with a delicious 3-course Moroccan dinner, freshly prepared from local products. The night comes alive with the rhythms of traditional Gnaoua music, storytelling drums and mystical melodies — the true spirit of Morocco surrounding you in warmth and atmosphere.
Day 2 – Friday, 22.05.2026
Sunrise Photography, Camel Adventure, Dunes & Essaouira Exploration
We begin gently as the sun rises over the ocean with a sunrise photoshoot, capturing peaceful early-morning beauty. Soft light, calm beaches and dreamy mood — the perfect moment for intimate portraits, emotional horse shots and cinematic silhouettes.
Afterwards, enjoy a delicious Moroccan breakfast, full of local flavors and homemade goodness.
Then the adventure continues…
We head into the dunes for a truly special experience:
a camel ride and photography session in the majestic sand dunes with the iconic “Castle of the Sand” (Dar Sultan ruins) as your backdrop.
You will also have the opportunity to wear a beautiful flying dress, traditional accessories or elegant outfits to create breathtaking, magazine-style images. Every moment is artistically captured so you not only live the adventure — you take it home forever.
Later we head to Essaouira Medina, a UNESCO World Heritage site full of colorful streets, artisan shops, spices, music and culture. Explore the historic city walls, visit the old fishing port, walk through vibrant souks and feel the relaxed bohemian soul of Essaouira.
Here you can enjoy fresh fish straight from the port, taste local delicacies, shop for souvenirs or simply soak up the atmosphere.
