Camel tour worth trying - Short but fun trip. 30 minute walk in the sand dunes. Minstemann thought this was very fun. 10 Euro for children, 15 for adults.

Get there early, we... - Get there early, we waited over an hour. You go to the desk buy a ticket or show your ticket and they give you a piece of paper with a time and number. You wait till your time and the number is called. Lack of signage took us Abit to find it

Camelos - The walk went very well.
30 minutes is the time needed to enjoy the landscape, I would not like more.
The staff takes us a photo at the start of the tour but does not warn us, so it is normal for us to get bad in the photos (the staff must be more attentive)

Something different - This was something different to do that we have never done before and we booked online the day before before following the signs and showing up at the location. The location itself is a little rundown however it does the job. We waited around 20 minutes and then both seated side-by-side on a camel.
All of the camels are tied to each other and move off in a single file. The walk itself through the dunes is more of a trail than what you may imagine going up and down on some tunes to be but it’s still quite pleasant. It is at a slow pace and the views that you may having your head are not necessarily born outin the experience.
There’s a fun little side event for Doctor a great deal of money but don’t get your hopes of thinking it may be something earthshattering really brilliant.

Worn with poor structure - Was no guidance at all which was missing, would have been fun with info before or after if it is not given during.
Very hard to know what time to be there, we arrived about 11.15 then we had to wait until 14:00 which is a bit too long with two small children.
I had planned to spend a maximum of one hour there, now it was almost the whole day, we were not back at our hotel until 15:30 so bad that you can not book a specific time when a whole vacation day was spent and much was just to be expected.
When it became 2 pm we didn’t leave anyway for at least 20 minutes.
The experience was good price on but you could not get more island to sit on a camel that went in the downs.
And they're not camels, they're dromedaries.
The toilet had no toilet paper.
Really need an update alkt plays on the last verse. Feels very neglected and that you squeeze out the last pennies.

Horrible. - Don't go do that animals are being mistreated. I'm sorry I went. They are attached to each other all day to carry tourists on the same route in full sun.

Animal Abuse - The animals look so poor!! Please do not go on this trip. We decided to wait outside as soon as we saw the poor camels. They threat them like trash. Please be aware of this

Inhuman - It is the worst thing you can do you are encouraging the confinement and abuse of these animals that are super good and meek and have them here even bleeding (can be seen in the photo below) and the camels cry and get angry every time they go for a walk the truth could not describe the anger I feel. The views are the same as if you take the car and take a tour around the island and the price is not worth going in 2 very hard chairs.
