Great service! Shisha area was fun and great for making new friend. Great henna free design with package. The dancers and music were out of this world and very talented! We traveled Dubai for 2 weeks and this was the most fun and magical experience we had. Seeing the desert and enjoying the activities with family was unforgettable! The camel ride was so fun and I wish I ended up doing the longer ride... But now we have one more reason to do it again. Everyone should do this excursion if they get the chance. You should definitely do the private tour and pick up. Nawaz has an awesome truck and the fine driving was AWESOME! Worth every penny and pray you get Nawaz because he is wonderful at what he does!Written 11 December 2024

The Dubai Royal Camel Race was an unforgettable experience! The prime seats provided an excellent view of the thrilling camel races, allowing us to fully appreciate the skill and speed of the camels. The short camel ride was a unique and fun way to get up close with these majestic animals. The staff were friendly and informative, making the experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this activity to anyone looking to experience a unique aspect of Dubai's rich culture and heritage.

it’s a short trip but something you shouldn’t miss. The only downside, is that the location is in remote place so better arrange your transportation ( for extra charge ) in advance. Me and my friend had fun and literally was shouting when “ our “ camel began to race. Book for VVIP so you can choose and control your favorite camel! Go and visit with your group it will be so much fun

Madness, what a large area where about 8000 camels are kept. It is worth the VIP entry, then you have a private driver who drives you around there and explains everything. Also later on in the VIP Lounge and in the store for shopping. You can bet on 5 🐫, unfortunately not won, but get a tea as a consolation prize.

Dear Jurgen,
Vielen Dank, dass Sie Ihre wundervolle Erfahrung mit uns geteilt haben! Wir freuen uns sehr, dass Ihnen der VIP-Eintritt und die persönliche Tour gefallen haben – ein privater Fahrer macht wirklich den Unterschied, oder? So ein großes Gelände mit 8000 Kamelen zu erkunden, ist wahrlich ein einzigartiges Abenteuer! Es freut uns, dass Sie auch die VIP-Lounge und das Einkaufen genossen haben. Und obwohl die Kamelwetten diesmal nicht geklappt haben, hat der Tee hoffentlich etwas Trost gespendet! Wir hoffen, Sie bald wieder für weitere unvergessliche Momente (und vielleicht einen Gewinn bei der nächsten Wette) begrüßen zu dürfen! 🐪😊

Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the VIP entry and the personalized tour—having a private driver makes all the difference, doesn't it? Exploring such a large area with 8000 camels is truly a unique adventure! We're glad you made the most of the VIP lounge and shopping too. And while the camel bets didn’t pan out, at least the tea provided a comforting consolation! We hope to welcome you back for more memorable moments (and maybe a winning bet next time)! 🐪😊

There was nothing royal there! Neither the car with which one was driven quickly over the facility (get out not desired), nor the facility itself ( everywhere lay dirt ), the toilets a disaster, the camel race rather for small children. Selling VIP tickets where the building only has a terrace is also cheeky, especially since a few kilometers away is the right facility of the sheikh ( Al Marmoom ), where admission is FREE and the camels are real racing camels and not already retired, as here. This is about buying camel milk products, nothing more . The photos they took with my phone of the camel riding and feeding have all become nothing.....even this more than unroyal. The fact that this trip can be called that is a mystery to me, because this facility has nothing to do with the sheikh , the hospital for camels etc. Also you can see max 100 camels...and not 9000 as claimed. Buses full of Asians are driven there Far too expensive along with the taxi ride for what is on offer. After 45 minutes you will be escorted to the exit in a friendly but determined manner.

Dear Mr. Ulrike Hutter,
Thank you for sharing your thoughts about your visit to the Royal Camel Racing venue. We value feedback from all our guests, as it helps us improve and better understand different perspectives.
Regarding your comments, we’d like to provide some clarity:
Royal Camel Racing Venue: The term “Royal” reflects the tradition and heritage of camel racing in this region. While your expectations of the term may differ, we aim to offer an authentic cultural experience that showcases this unique sport.
Ticket Differences: The distinction between regular and VIP tickets is primarily noticeable during peak seasons, particularly in summer, where VIP ticket holders have access to air-conditioned lounges, while regular ticket holders enjoy ground-floor seating.
Number of Camels: We apologize if the scale of the event didn’t meet your expectations. Our venue typically hosts a large number of camels, but factors like timing and the race schedule might influence what visitors see during their visit.
Tourist Crowd: The presence of buses and large groups reflects the popularity of this unique cultural experience. While it can feel bustling at times, we strive to accommodate all guests and make their visit enjoyable.
Photo Assistance: We are glad someone assisted you with a photo, as we want our guests to create lasting memories. We encourage visitors to seek assistance from our staff or fellow travelers respectfully.
Desert Environment: The venue is located in the heart of the desert, and its natural surroundings contribute to the charm and authenticity of the camel racing experience. While it’s not a luxury setting, it offers a genuine glimpse into this cultural tradition.
Al Marmoom Option: We understand some guests may prefer different experiences. If Al Marmoom offers free access, feel free to proceed, but please let us know if you manage to get in :)
We appreciate your visit and regret that your experience did not meet your expectations. Our goal is to offer an enjoyable and educational experience for all our guests. Should you have further feedback or suggestions, please feel free to share them with us directly.
Warm regards,

My friends and I visited this place and the experience was amazing. It was so unique to see those lovely camel races. I didn’t know they could run that fast!! We also enjoyed a short camel ride and we were able to feed them. Snacks are free but all made from camels. Camelicious! Even the ice cream. It’s really worth a visit.

Watching the camel race should one on your bucket list when you visit Dubai. Amazing trip with helpful and attentive guide. Free snacks – camel milk, camel burger & ice cream. Food was amazingly delicious. Had fun riding and feeding camels and tour around the camel farm. A short but amazing visit not to be missed. Recommended!
