The Camel rides in Giza are one of the best ways to enjoy and take in one of the most iconic landscapes of our world today. These rides combine luxury, comfort, and thrill to allow you explore the Giza plateau that has been a substantial part of desert travel for centuries.
To start with, your day begins when our driver picks you up from your hotel room, and you are driven in comfort to the Giza area. From here, you will meet the guide who has been assigned to you. These camels also come with a handler that has been trained to monitor their movements, so you are not moved at an uncomfortable pace, or accidents occur.
As the ride continues, you will get an unmatched outdoor experience, which is then coupled with the views of the popular pyramids of Giza, the desert terrain, and every other thing jumping at you in the locality. What you have is a connection that cannot be achieved with an indoor car ride. We want you to touch the sands of time, too, with those who have lived before us.
During the ride, you get a close and exhilarating outdoor experience with the stunning views of the Pyramids of Giza. The surrounding desert terrain, the beautiful sand dunes and sand waves, and the open horizon that has come to define this particular experience. This particular connection cannot be achieved by traveling by car, so we have prepared the camels to provide you with an authentic connection to the lives of those who lived on the land long before we did.
During the ride, your guide will assist you with the following:
Choosing the routes for the best views and photos
Making sure you are safe and comfortable at all times.
Our guide will also share with you deep insights about the area and all other aspects of traditional desert life.
Finally, depending on the program and your preference, the camel ride can be scheduled for the day or at sunsets when your pictures are almost guaranteed to come out perfect.
Generally, this experience is perfect for travellers who want the following;
A traditional desert activity close to Cairo
Memorable photos with the pyramids in the background
Those who are tired from earlier tours and do not want a full day, but just an important moment with nature.
At the Traviaz Group Tours, the main focus is to make sure that you get the best out of your visit. We want you to have the best experience, the culture of the people, and not only the logistics.
