About this experience
Despite Sharm El Sheikh being a modern city with a developed economy, you can still see the tents of the Bedouins - Arabic nomads in the Sinai desert. A caravan of camels will take you directly to their village: observe the daily life of the locals, try traditional tea, and enjoy the fantastic views of the desert along the way.
What to Expect
Ships of the desert
Rested in Sharm El Sheikh, you should definitely head to the desert to get closer to the camels. Under the guidance of professional herdsmen, these animals are obedient and tame. You can pet and feed them. Be sure: their kind eyes under the shadow of long lashes will charm you!
After the briefing, an unforgettable safari awaits you. You will ride through the sand dunes, discover fantastic landscapes and unusual vegetation, conquer the sand dunes, and take photos against the backdrop of rocks. If you arrive at sunrise, you will witness unreal views of the enchanting desert, and the excursion in the rays of the setting sun will be remembered by a campfire stop, silence, and starry sky.
Bedouin Village
The camel caravan will take you to a Bedouin village, where you will observe the preparation of food, try authentic Arabic tea, and get acquainted with the life of the nomads. You will learn about the role camels played in the lives of Egyptians and Bedouins, what they produced from their hides and wool, what is made from nutritious camel milk, and what these resilient animals symbolize.
