- Duration:
Camel riding is a part of all Dubai desert safari packages and lasts a minute or two. - Seating:
Camels usually accommodate two riders per seat, sitting sideways with a handler leading the animal. - Came riding ticket options:
Unlike other activities, Camel riding is short and part of most packages to connect visitors to the desert from the get-go. Although it is a short activity, there are different activities visitors can enjoy with these "ships" of the desert.
Classic Camel Ride: This 1-2 minute journey is your standard desert safari inclusion. Relax, soak in the scenery, and feel the rhythm of the dunes beneath you.
Camel Farm Visit: Go beyond the ride and visit a working camel farm! Learn about these fascinating creatures, see their routines, and even feed them. Add this as a pre-booked extra to your safari.
Double the Dunes?: Craving more camel time? Many safaris allow a second ride, often with a break in between. Check your package or ask about add-on options!
Standalone Camel Rides: Not planning a complete safari? You can book your camel ride session at the location with us!
