THE reason to return to Essaouira - I once again had an absolutely wonderful experience with Horse Essaouira! Horses - all stallions - are great and perfectly trained. Guides always know how to choose the one that best suits you. Me, I always do several days of riding during my stay, because for me, it is really THE reason to come back to Essaouira. And with Cheval Essaouira, it’s always a real joy.
Horseback riding is fantastic, the scenery is unforgettable, and the beaches offer endless stretches where you can gallop and trot freely.
I loved galloping in the forest with Ayoub, as well as Amine’s expertise and professional attention. Thank you too, Amine, for the wonderful memories in photos.
Horses are really loved, and Mohamed and his team are always incredibly welcoming, professional and experienced.
Thank you again, and I hope to see you soon!

Beautiful route and great guide! - After the Sidi Kaouki trek of 3 days with our group of friends, we made a separate ride of 3 hours, led by Hamza. This outside ride was incredibly cool! It was a varied ride through woods, dunes and over the beach, with great horses. We enjoyed it, thanks Hamza and Cheval Essaouira!

Perfection! - I went to Morocco for my first solo trip, and I’m so glad I did. I went for a 3-hour trek and a sunset ride(s), and both were absolutely unforgettable. Meeting Mohammed was another highlight — warm, professional, and simply wonderful. He made me feel welcomed and safe from the very first moment. I returned again in the same year because the whole experience felt magical… and the second time was even more so. Mohammed encouraged me to try riding bareback — he gave me just the right amount of courage and spark I needed — and I’ll forever be grateful for that. Thank you so much, Cheval Essaouira. I can’t wait to be back soon! 💛🐎🌅

As a horse lover, I'd say definitely! - Last September I enjoyed an outside ride through the woods, dunes and on the beach in the area of Diabat.
My guides were HàMza and Ibrahim and both riders showed me the beautiful places and gave me an unforgettable experience.
They were kind and patient, they talked about the horses and what we all saw along the way. The horses are well cared for and treated and I was treated with respect.
I would definitely recommend them and I will definitely be back at Cheval Essaouira ..❤️🏇

Tragic - My experience at Cheval Essaouira was honestly shocking. The owner was unbelievably arrogant and completely out of control — yelling, disrespectful, and acting in a way no professional should. The behavior was so aggressive and unprofessional that it ruined the entire visit. I left feeling stressed and appalled. I strongly advise people to stay away from this place.
