Saddle up for a horse & camel riding experience

It's time to broaden your horizons and make new friends of the equine variety as you set out on an exciting horseback riding experience in one of the populous cities of Saudi Arabia's eastern region, Dammam. Arrive at an equestrian centre and be treated to some traditional Arabian hospitality, including Saudi coffee and dates. Cosy up inside 'Bait Al Shaar', which literally translates to 'house of hair', a traditional Bedouin tent that is woven from the hair of goats and sheep. Walk around the stables to learn more about the different types of horses and how to distinguish between them. Take a closer look at the Arabian horse and see what sets it apart from other breeds, as it is well-known for its strength, endurance and stamina. Learn how to groom horses, and you can even participate and treat your new friends to some serious pampering. Enjoy a short ride on one of the horses and trot around the stables. Take this opportunity to learn more about the 'ships of the desert', the Arabian camels, which are incredibly cute and fun to ride. Next up, prepare for an enthralling archery and horse riding show that will leave you in utter awe before enjoying delicious barbecue dishes at the camp and calling it a day.
