Swimming camels??? - I have been swimming with camel for over 2 years. Each time, on one level, it is a unique and special occasion and shows the bond and trust between camels themselves and us humans. On another level, it remains the craziest (and least touristy) things I have done in my 3 years in Dubai- who would have thought that camels can swim. In fact they are very good - think of a large bag of fermenting gas (their stomachs) to keep them afloat and add in 4 large paddles as propulsion units. Utterly 'bonkers'! I now have two camels (Seihan and Uli) of my own that live at the ADCRC and yes we have been swimming together - it is a great way to bond with, already, unique animals..

You must try this and I am sure you will be happy and thankful - This experience is considered one of the most enjoyable for me and relieves the mind from the pressures of life and work. From the first experience, I always make sure to attend it if time allows me ( almost 5 times attending). And every time the coordination and preparation are at the highest level. Thank you.
