The arrangements were quick and efficient despite being made on the day. It was amazing and Jawad is as good a photographer as he is a horseman. I am sure that the photos that he took will be the best on my camera. We did a two hour ride and would love to do it again when we next visit... More

our guide (i think his name was Jewed?!??) was the kind and gentle version of the moroccan john wayne! the 2 hours ride started at the range, leads us along the nice beaches and shown us as well some beautiful places in the sand dunes. without any regrets we would book it again!

I spent a very enjoyable two and a half days here. I opted for a half day beach trek then followed that up with a two day trek with an overnight camp. This was without a doubt, the most fun I have had doing an outdoor activity as a beginner. The instruction was excellent and I would not hesitate to... More

I was lucky enough to squeeze a ride with Equi Evasion into our very short trip over Easter and was captivated from start to finish. The horses and stables are in the very best condition and the ride itself was unforgettable, from the scenery to the relaxed way in which we rode (from walking through the bush to galloping in...

To begin, the horses at Equi Evasion are very well taken care of and it shows. They are clean and from my experience there, they are very well behaved. If it is your first time riding a horse, I would definitely recommend this place. You go in a small group with your friends or family and the tour is tailored... More

Whether beginner or experienced rider, you wil find yourself in the right hands here. We booked once and had to go again a second time, because we enjoyed the riding experience as well as the great company of our guide Jawad. A genuine Marrocan experience. Thanks to the crew - Claudia, Jawad, Hassan - for your heartiness. .

Riding an Arab stallion along a beach in Essaouira with three friends was a wonderful experience. Horses were obviously well cared for and matched to the abilities of the riders. Our guide was very friendly and took lots of photos of the ride for us. I would definitely go again.

My three friends and I did a ride along the beach at Essaouira and it was amazing. Some of our group were not experienced riders, the owners made sure everyone had a horse that matched their abilities. The horses themselves were beautiful animals, so well looked after and had lovely temperaments. The ride was great fun, wandering through the bush... More

Awesome owners went out of their way to make us feel part of their world. Couldn't imagine a better choice to explore this laid back place on Camelback.
