Camel Encounters
Our Camel Encounters offer meaningful ways to connect with camels and desert culture beyond the saddle. Designed for beginners, families, children, and those seeking a calmer, more immersive experience, these sessions focus on learning, interaction, and connection through hands-on workshops, discovery experiences, and guided encounters in Dubai and beyond.
Camel Groundwork & Connection Workshop
Build Trust, Presence, and Awareness
Discover a deeper connection—with camels, and with yourself.
This 90-minute workshop is designed for anyone seeking a calm, meaningful experience rooted in animal connection, conscious leadership, and emotional presence.
Whether you are new to camels or an experienced rider, this non-riding workshop introduces you to the gentle art of being with a camel—on the ground, in stillness, in movement, and in mutual respect.
What to expect:
Quiet observation of camels as they roam freely—learn their body language, personalities, and expressions
Practice calm, respectful approaches and haltering techniques
Explore physical comfort zones and desensitize fears around size or posture
Engage in obstacle course leading exercises based on pressure & release, trust, and intention
Reflect and integrate your experience with group sharing and facilitator guidance
These sessions are ideal for:
Individuals seeking a peaceful, grounding experience
People curious about camel behavior and communication
Riders wanting to deepen their bond with their camels before riding
Teams, who are looking for a different type of team building workshop outside, in nature.
Swim with Camels
At ADCRC, swimming with camels isn’t just a beautiful moment of connection—it’s part of their training.
In the world of camel racing, water plays a powerful role.
Race camels are routinely taken to the sea to support their athletic conditioning. Swimming offers a low-impact, high-benefit workout that improves cardiovascular health, strengthens muscle tone, and gives the joints a break from the stress of the track.
This unique activity lets you step into that world—side by side with these incredible athletes.
What to Expect:
Learn how swimming benefits camel conditioning and post-race recovery
Meet our trained racing camels and observe their comfort in water
Gently enter the deep sea with the camels—no riding, just letting yourself be pulled along
- A true cultural experience that is unique and authentic to the UAE
Who is it for?
Camel lovers and racing fans wanting to see the sport from a new angle
Anyone curious to share a rare and heartwarming interaction with these gentle giants
- Join our monthly sessions or book a private day as per your preference.
Why Swimming?
Like human athletes, camels benefit from aquatic cross-training:
Cardiovascular conditioning without joint strain
Salt water helps cleanse the skin and relax the muscles
Improves stamina and recovery post-racing
But beyond the physical, there’s an emotional dimension:
When you step into the water with a camel, you share a space of trust, freedom, and presence.
