About ADCRC

The Region’s First Dedicated Camel Riding School.

Arabian Desert Camel Riding Centre is Dubai’s first licensed camel riding centre. It was founded to teach camel riding as a real discipline, not a novelty experience.

We use traditional Emirati handling methods alongside modern animal welfare standards. This means every ride follows a clear, structured approach focused on learning.

ADCRC is located in the heart of Dubai’s camel farm district. It offers an authentic setting for riders to learn and progress. This is not a tourist attraction. Instead, it is a calm, grounded space where riders build confidence, skill, and respect for the camel.

With guidance from experienced instructors, riders move beyond common stereotypes. They learn a skill deeply rooted in the heritage of the UAE.
