A 4.4 rating in a category where we have reviewed camel rides scoring 4.8 and 5.0 is a genuine warning sign. This Agadir sunset camel ride with barbecue dinner costs EUR35 - more than double the EUR14 option that scores 4.8 and includes a flamingo river route. The maths here does not work in this tour’s favour, and we are going to be honest about why.
What actually happens
The experience follows the standard Agadir camel ride formula: hotel pickup, a camel ride through the beach or dune area south of Agadir, timed to coincide with sunset. You stop for mint tea and Moroccan cakes, then sit down for a barbecue dinner prepared by a chef. The sunset timing adds genuine atmosphere - watching the Atlantic horizon turn orange from the back of a camel is legitimately beautiful. The whole experience runs 3.5 hours, which is longer than most competitors. The barbecue is included in the price rather than being an optional upgrade.
Our honest take
The 4.4 rating is below our recommended threshold, and at EUR35, this costs significantly more than better-rated alternatives. The EUR14 camel ride with flamingo river scores 4.8, and several other Agadir camel experiences in the EUR25 to EUR35 range score 4.8 or 4.9. When cheaper options consistently outperform a more expensive one, the pricing is not justified by the quality. The included barbecue might explain the price premium, but it does not explain the lower rating - if the food were excellent, reviews would reflect that. The 4.4 likely signals inconsistency: some guests have a lovely evening while others encounter disorganisation, subpar food, or camels in poor condition. At EUR35 for 3.5 hours, the experience is not terrible - a 4.4 is still broadly positive. But in a market this competitive, there is no reason to book a 4.4 when a 4.8 costs EUR14.
Who should book this
- Honestly, we struggle to recommend this over the alternatives
- If you specifically want barbecue included in the price rather than as a separate booking, this bundles everything
- Travellers who have already booked and want to know what to expect
Who should skip this
- Anyone comparing Agadir camel rides - several cheaper options have significantly better ratings
- Budget-conscious travellers - the EUR14 flamingo river option is objectively better value
- Quality-focused travellers - at 4.4, this is below the standard set by competitors
- First-time visitors who want to ensure their camel experience is genuinely good

Rating: 4.4/5 from 40 verified reviews
Our recommendation: Book the EUR14 Agadir Camel Ride with Flamingo River (rated 4.8) for the ride itself, and spend the EUR21 you save on a separate dinner at a restaurant of your choosing. You will have a better camel experience and better food.
Practical tip: If you have already booked this, go with realistic expectations. The sunset itself will be beautiful regardless of the tour quality. Bring a warm layer - Agadir evenings cool down quickly after sunset, and sitting outdoors for a barbecue in a light breeze can get chilly.
