A camel ride in Lanzarote

How to enjoy a camel ride in Lanzarote

Lanzarote offers a myriad of contrasts in all her geography. From beaches that are breathtaking, charming people, big touristic resorts or a great gastronomy, until the stunning Timanfaya National Park. In Canarian Transfer we have different choices to  discover the park, maybe the most special is a camel ride. Camels are strong animals that have been staying besides mankind for centuries. During this time together, the camels have been trained and historically used for loading work. This makes the camels the ideal animals to enjoy the tour in Timanfaya.

A different experience

There are many ways to visit the Timanfaya National Park, but the sight from the top riding a camel is unique. The experience starts from the Echadero de Camellos, where real camels of Lanzarote are waiting for the visitors. After getting on the camel, the visitors in a group will start a beautiful path through the authorized tracks of the Timanfaya. They will enjoy the beautiful volcanic landscape, along with the coming and going of the camels. Many people think this is the most similar thing to a ride on Marte. In Canarian Transfer we have several tours which include the camel ride. Among them there is the famous Camel Safari, one of the most requested. Even the Lanzarote Gran Tour, the South Tour and Short South Tour include a camel ride.

Get ready to live the experience

The first thing you have to think is you are going to visit a mountain, so you should wear comfortable clothes and shoes. Go for elastic garments that let you move easily. Remember you have to go on a camel!

On the other side the shoes have to be correct for the surroundings. Even if the nice weather of Lanzarote invites you to dress sandals, this is not the best option to climb Timanfaya. Use comfortable and closed shoes which will protect you from the cold and the stones on the ground. Another important thing is the sunscreen. Don’t forget to bring with you your sunglasses, a hat and to put the sun protection. Remember also a bottle of water to keep yourself hydrated, above all during the hot days.
