Our daily program will start, and we will follow the rhythm of our camels….

With the first rays of the sun caressing you, you will wake up with a smile on your face.

Like every day, a well-defined pace of walking in the footsteps of dromedaries, except that today it will be a little faster to reach the camp and enjoy a good shower finally.
