Start with hotel pickup, then ride a well-cared-for Barb Arabian horse for 90 minutes along the golden beaches of Agadir or Taghazout. Guides such as Hassan and Mustafa match horses to ability, help nervous beginners, and take photos along the coast. Sunrise brings cool air and soft light, while confident riders may get a chance to canter or gallop.

“It was amazing. I did the 18:00 one and honestly, I loved it so much. I dragged my dad to it aswell and he was unsure but he can’t stop going on how much he loved it as well. I recommend it!! Special thanks to Hassan, I was particularly scared at first and by the end I was running briefly and felt confident. The horses are all well trained and well treated!!! Again highly recommend, such nice people aswell!”
