Camel ride with dinner

Camels, often known as “ships of the desert,” are a peaceful way to experience the Palmeraie’s serenity while enjoying traditional Moroccan tea and pastries. You’ll pass through traditional Berber villages, see distinct regional houses, and meet some residents along the way. Don’t forget to take a break for a cup of Moroccan tea and take in the calmness.

Visit Jemma el-Fnaa

At night, stay away from Jemma el-main Fnaa’s square, as you don’t want to be caught off guard by a man throwing monkeys or snakes charmer for a photo; instead, arrive soon after midday, when the shops have all opened up, and you’ll have a better sense of who is trying to entertain you. The snakes are charmed, the monkeys are doing their tricks, and the traditional street dances amuse the children.
