How to arrange a camel ride in the desert in Dubai?

Organizing a camel ride in the desert in Dubai is quite simple, as it is a popular entertainment. Here is a detailed action plan:

Decide on the type of trip:

Short walk: It is usually a 30-60 minute camel ride around the camp area. Suitable for beginners and those who just want to try it.
Longer safari: It can be a camel ride as part of a group for several hours with stops, possibly with elements of an entertainment program.
Private tour: A personal camel ride, which may include an overnight stay in a Bedouin camp.

Online Search: Start by searching the internet. Many companies offer camel rides, as well as desert safaris. Pay attention to the reviews, prices, and included services.
Travel agencies: You can contact travel agencies in Dubai. They often offer package tours that include camel rides.
Hotels: Some hotels in Dubai cooperate with tour companies or have their own offers.

Price: Compare the prices of different tour operators. They may depend on the length of the trip, the included services, and the level of service.
Reviews: Read reviews from other tourists to verify the reliability and quality of the company’s service.
Services included: Find out what is included in the price of the tour: transfer, food, drinks, entertainment (for example, sandboarding, photo shoot in national costumes, Bedouin-style dinner).
Security: Make sure that the tour operator complies with all necessary security measures, that the camels are well-groomed, and the guides are qualified.

Online: Book a tour on the tour operator’s website or through an online travel agency.
By phone: You can call the tour operator and book a tour by phone.
Personally: You can contact the tour operator’s office or the hotel and book the tour in person.
Specify the details: Specify the time and place of gathering, what you need to take with you (water, hat, sunscreen, comfortable clothes and shoes).

Clothing: Choose comfortable clothes that cover your shoulders and legs to protect yourself from the sun and sand.
Shoes: Wear comfortable closed shoes.
Sun protection: Do not forget a hat, sunglasses and sunscreen.
Water: Take enough water with you, especially if the trip is long.
Money: Take cash for souvenirs, tips, or extra expenses.

The best time to travel is in the morning or evening when it is not so hot.
Bargain: In some cases, especially in local markets, you can bargain a little bit about the price.
Book in advance: Especially during high season to ensure availability.
Learn about alternatives: If you are not sure about camel riding, consider other options like jeep or ATV safaris.

Listen to the guide’s instructions: The guide will tell you how to properly sit on a camel, how to control it, and what safety measures must be followed.
Be prepared for sand: There may be a lot of sand in the desert, so be prepared for it to get into your eyes or on your clothes.
Take photos: Take lots of photos to keep the memories of this unique experience alive.
