About this experience
This journey is filled with the atmosphere of an Eastern fairy tale: it is painted with colors of the Egyptian sunset and the shimmer of stars, the crackling of the campfire and the aroma of tea, the rustle of sand and the majestic gait of camels. We will ride the desert ships in the rays of the setting sun, have a break with a hookah, and on the way back, we will enjoy the silence and velvety darkness of the southern night.
What to Expect
🐪 Desert Sunset. Swaying gently on camels, we will head into the desert just as the sun is setting. With the 'ships of the desert,' you will witness a magical sunset: see how the shades of the sky change from pink to velvety blue, how the sun slowly descends behind the mountains, and how desert foxes head to their burrows. By the way, the photos here turn out magical!
☕ Bedouin Camp. When it gets dark, we will stop and set up camp. We will light a campfire, sit around it, and enjoy Bedouin tea or coffee, just like true desert dwellers. And if desired, we can even smoke a hookah. And all of this in the silence of the sands, under the dome of the endless starry sky.
🌌 Camel Ride Under the Stars. When the campfire burns out, we will mount our two-humped friends again and head back in complete darkness: only the Milky Way above us will provide some light. But don't worry—the experienced guide will show the right path even on the darkest night.
Logistical Details
- Transfer from your hotel is available at an additional cost (from $5 to $20 depending on the distance). Camel ride, tea, and hookah are included in the price.
- Children can ride a camel independently from 10 years old. If a child wants to ride with a parent and their combined weight does not exceed 100 kg, they can ride together on 1 camel (hence, the cost will also be for one camel).
- It is advisable to bring warm clothing and comfortable attire.
