Camel & Horse Riding

Camel and horse riding can be done in many areas in Jordan. In particular, the desert area of Wadi Rum lends itself superbly to trekking by camel and horseback. In Petra you can try a short camel ride or ride by horse back down to the entrance of the Ancient City.

For something different and perhaps for the more adventurous, we can arrange 1 or 2 day camel excursion in the desert. Horse riding is also a great way to get around and you can have a couple of hours in the saddle or go on longer full day rides. Our ground agents can arrange camel and horse rides to explore areas off the beaten track.


Trekking through the desert by camel, as the locals did thousands of years ago, can take you to isolated places where other visitors cannot get to.
