Traditional Beduin Evenings
Experience timeless Arabia ...
At Camel Uschi we offer an escape from the hustle and bustle of the city and a setting to relax in the peace and tranquility of the Arabian desert. Our authentic Bedouin camp offers guests a glimpse of a past time when many of the region's people lived a simple life in harmony with their desert environment.
Our Bedouin staff welcome guests to our camp with tea flavoured with traditional spices and Arabic sweets. Guests are free to explore the desert camp and visit our camel farm, with staff members on hand to answer questions.
Afterwards, you are invited to ride our camels along desert trails, guided and supervised by our expert camel handlers, you can climb on the dunes around the farm or just sit down and relax in a Beit Sha'ar, a Bedouin handwoven goat hair tent, furnished with hand-made cushions, carpets and decorations.
Just with the sunset we cook Arabian Bedouin dishes in front of your eyes using traditional cooking methods. Meat and vegetables are cooked on an open fire, or as madfoun or mandi (methods of cooking in hot embers buried under the ground). We are offering chicken, goat or camel meat, vegetables, salad, freshly baked bread and fresh fruits (according to advance menu orders). Vegetarian food is also available.
Enjoy a traditional Bedouin meal beneath the stars!
Of course, no Bedouin meal would be complete without a coffee ceremony, preparing and serving 'qahwa' (Arabic coffee). Once a precious commodity, serving coffee to visitors was regarded as a sign of both generosity and wealth.
