Marrakesh Horsebackriding Marakesh?
Posted: Mon February 11, 2008 03:14 PM UTC
I would love to go horsebackriding in Marakesh. I've heard that one can ride arabians through the souks? I would love to have a beautiful horseback experience. I am a good rider. Any recommendations?

I doubt very much you can ride Arabians through the souqs. I certainly saw none of that whilst I was there. The souqs themselves are, in the main, very narrow passageways with lots of people. Mopeds, yes; the odd mule on the wider passageways, yes. Arabians - not from my experience.

Ok, Agree with the other postings - No Way can You ride a horse through the souk in Marrakech! The odd donkey might get through with difficulty!!!

Try Googling 'Marrakech Horse riding' - You'll find some riding schools in the Palmeries, plus treks into the Atlas mountains, which I'm sure would be a great experience. If You do this You'll find something suitable for your needs.
Best Wishes,
Sue
