The convoy climbs a rocky spine, pauses at an acacia for a breath, then pushes on toward a Bedouin village perched where stone meets sky. By sunset you’re on a camel’s slow back, watching the valley go quiet while stars prick the cooling dome above.

5 hours.
Suitable for most fitness levels; you should be able to climb in/out of vehicles, mount a camel and ride a quad bike for ~40 minutes.
