Any trip to the Middle East brings to mind long journeys through the never ending dunes of sand over the desolate landscape on the back of camels, known as the ship of the desert. Thus, no trip to these desert lands and the Middle East is complete without a camel trek to truly savour an authentic experience of these lands. A camel trek is an ideal way to obtain a genuine understanding of what those long winding journeys of the ancient Arab travellers were like as they journeyed through the sands during their trips through these vast barren lands. It gives an opportunity for the traveller to explore the vast stretches of sandy wilderness on a personal level, holding on to the hump of the camel as it sways from one side to the other. As you traverse the seemingly never ending dunes at sunset the silence is only disturbed by the footfall of the beast, your voice and the words of your tour guide. You will be mesmerized by the desert vegetation and exotic landscapes as you experience the exhilarating trip across the land. It is both educational and exhilarating and sometimes one has to pinch oneself to realize that it is actually happening and you are travelling through the sands. The trekking goes on for about 6 hours from about 4.30 in the evening till about 9.30 in the night. It not only provides the traveller with a chance to see the magical land during its breathtaking sunsets but also to watch the night stars and night skies light up the endless stretches of sand. A trek is sure to bring to mind those legendary tales one has heard of in the 1001 Nights or other well known stories and it is indeed one of the most awe inspiring and magnificent ways to experience the Middle East. Among the numerous Abu Dhabi hotels is Qasr Al Sarab Desert Resort by Anantara. It is one of the Abu Dhabi luxury hotels that provides the visitor with a chance to experience all the charming moments that this country has to offer.
