Additional Information
Children
Children aged 5-8 years are half-price and must share a camel with a responsible adult guardian. Children aged 8 and over are charged full price and can ride their own camel at their guardian’s carefulness. camels There is no charge for children under the age of 5. We do not recommend overnight safaris for very young children, but are happy to recommend our half day tour. For safety reasons, children under the age of 5 will not be permitted to ride camels, even when accompanied by an adult, as both parties need to be capable of holding on to the saddle horn/ropes for the duration of the ride. They must remain in the jeep and be accompanied by an adult guardian at all times.
Camp Fire
Campfires are lit during the winter months (approximately November – February, dependent on the weather). We do not light a campfire during the summer months as the light can draw insects.
