Camel riding & treks
Ten minutes around the camp or half a day across the ridges with a Bedu guide.
The camel is still the honest way to see the sands. Short rides at the camps cost a few rials; longer treks leave at dawn, cross two or three ridges to a hidden oasis and come back by the light of the sunset. The guides sing Taghrud on the way, as their grandfathers did.
💡 Tips
- Wear long trousers
- Mount from the left, lean back as the camel stands
- Speak softly: camels remember rude guests
