In the Sinai

Exploring the South Sinai Desert by Camel or Foot

Thumbnail description:
Host Id Abu Ali is a Bedouin of the Muzeina tribe, one of the largest tribes in South Sinai. He has been guiding camel and jeep tours for over 15 years. On his tours he introduces not only the desert but also his people. With us he offers tours of 3 to 10 days in length, traveling either by camel or foot, and he is happy to design tours with your special needs and interests in mind.

Camel Riding School

Thumbnail description:
Host Id Abu Ali, introduced above, also coordinates activities at a local camel riding school. The school teaches guests how to ride and care for a camel while learning about the traditional Bedouin way of life and survival in a desert environment. Also you'll learn about the flora and fauna of the desert. The camel riding school aims to bring business to the local Bedouin community. Note that the classes are given by regular Bedouins who are NOT professional teachers! A lot will depend on the participants and the interest shown in the subjects.
