Sunset Camelride ❣️
Excellent trip! Camels are friendly and well taken care of . The guide is enthusiast and knows a lot. So beside the beautiful sunset we also get a lot of interesting information. He also take pictures. My compliments. We are very happy with this ride.

Fabulous!!
Riding a camel at sunset in Darwin was not on my bucket list but it should’ve been - There is something magical about it. Very friendly and informative, though unfortunately we couldn’t hear much of what was said due to there being no microphone used by the guide. In fact being on the last camel we heard almost nothing of what was said once we were led down the beach. Do this 45minute walk then get some dinner…. You’ll love it!

Mindil Beach Camel ride
Our first night and time in Darwin we went on a camel ride along Mindil Beach at sunset , this was such a beautiful and memorable experience. Our guide was fantastic and made it even more special with all the stories and information he shared about his camels that we wouldn’t have known about. We loved learning about how camels came to Australia, their history here and what they’re really like. You could tell our guide had a genuine love and understanding of them, and listening to his stories made the experience so much more interesting. Riding along the beach as the sun was setting was absolutely magical. Definitely recommend!!

An absolutely incredible experience & we enjoyed every single minute. This was so very well organised and the camels are very placid and the operators and owners. Nader and Sinead were fantastic & extremely passionate about these beautiful animals . Thank you for making this an exceptional experience. This is a must for any visitor to Darwin.

We had so much fun on the sunset camel ride. We learned a lot about the camels we were riding and the history of camels in Australia. Super interesting. Nader shared his personal journey from Egypt to saving camels in Australia. Don’t hesitate. Take this tour!
