Note
Please note: This tour involves a moderate amount of riding over bumpy and uneven surfaces, with a few steps to negotiate to get on/off the coach. This tour is recommended for guests in good physical condition. This tour is not suitable for pregnant guests, guests with a fear of animals or heights, guests with back and/or neck problems, guests with limited mobility and guests who utilise a wheelchair. Guests must be agile and flexible enough to board the camel, which involves lifting their leg high enough to climb aboard the saddle and place their feet in the stirrups on either side. The camels are quite wide; once you have boarded the camel with assistance from your guide, the camel will rise up from the floor and stand. The camel will roll forward and then back, causing a slight jolting movement as they stand. Guests must hold on tight to the saddle and not lean to either side. Each camel can accommodate two riders. The maximum weight for participating on this tour is 90kg per person and 160kg per camell (based on two riders). Long pants or trousers and sun protection are recommended. Space on this tour is very limited; we suggest you book in advance to avoid disappointment.
