Ranch Facilities
We have a scenic drive to the location where all our facilities are and where our camels live. It's a very pleasant ride in air-conditioned vans, which also provide bottled water in case you get thirsty. Our goal is to ensure you travel as comfortably as possible
Camel Ride
First, we will give you a detailed explanation of how camels behave, how to mount them, what they like, what we can do, and what they don't like. We must be very respectful, as they are living creatures that can feel
Next, we'll provide you with an outfit suited for this adventure a turban, similar to what Arabs wear. Don't worry, our staff will show you how to put it on, and if necessary, they will adjust it for you
To get on the camel, there is a kind of platform, and on the camel's hump, there are special saddles securely attached, which makes it both interesting and very safe
Camels can carry very heavy loads. Their large, wide legs are designed to walk in the desert sands, and here in Cabo, the ride takes place on the beach, which is the closest thing to the desert
However, despite being very strong animals, there is a weight limit for participants in this excursion. A camel can comfortably carry two adults of average build without any problems
Throughout the journey, for added safety, the camel will always be attended by a guide, who will lead the camel with a rope to keep it under control and ensure your safety
At the end of the journey, the more adventurous participants will have the opportunity to give our new friend a kiss and a hug. A staff member will be taking photos of this beautiful experience

Review
Review"The camel ride is fabulous, with Yoltic doing an excellent job. Also, very pleasant. The downside is the high cost of the photos"
"Excellent tour! We visited Los Cabos from California. We want to thank the guides, who were very skilled, friendly, and had a great sense of humor and cordiality toward the tourists"
"Excellent! Great attitude and positive energy. Highly recommended. One suggestion: offer more affordable photo packages"
"The journey isn't very long, but interacting with those exotic animals is fascinating. The extra activities are great, the food is good, and the staff's attention is very entertaining and enjoyable"
"Very friendly, everything was excellent, highly recommended. The food was delicious, and although the camel ride is short, it's worth it"
"The visit was so much fun! The guide was very kind and entertaining. Throughout the visit, we learned many new things about camels"
"It was my second visit to this beautiful place. The experience of interacting with the camels is so unique and unforgettable. My first time was with a friend, and I was fascinated by the staff's service from the check-in. The food, without a doubt, is absolutely exquisite. I highly recommend trying the quesadillas, as they are handmade with pure corn. The tequila tasting, the scenery—it was all amazing!"
"The camel ride is incredible and fun along the seashore. You also get to see a mini desert and learn survival tips for it. They serve delicious food, and you are taught how to make a corn tortilla starting from the corn grain. For dessert, there's a tasting of two tequilas and a regional liqueur"
"Everyone is super friendly. I just wish the time with the camels lasted longer, but it’s made up for with the other activities"
"The service overall was very satisfactory. Giovanny, the guide, was excellent—great explanation, very patient, helpful, and cheerful. The camels appear to be in very good condition. My only observation is that the price of the photo packages seems excessive."
