What you get

Highlights

  • Barbecue dinner included
  • Drop-off at the village afterwards

The experience

What to expect

The ranch is inland of Agadir, so from Taghazout we collect you around half past five and you are back later than the city guests. The evening itself is unchanged.

You ride through eucalyptus and along the Souss river while the light drops, which is when the birds come in and the whole place looks its best. It is slow, and that is the point.

Then mint tea at the ranch while the barbecue is lit, and dinner at the table. It is a good option if you have spent the day on the beach and want something to do with the evening.
