Amazing and unforgettable experience. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable, had a sense of humor, and great relationship with the animals. From the camels, alpacas, horses, and goats to the porcupine, sloth, and singing dogs, I was truly in heaven. The UTV adventure was enjoyable as well and the dogs at the facility always kept you company....and your seat warm. Highly recommend for people of all ages. Reservations are required. This helps give each person a true one on one experience with the animals.

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with curious kids aged 4 and up who want genuine animal contact beyond a traditional zoo. The knowledgeable, passionate guide makes it educational. Younger children ride the Safari Tram safely. Older kids and teens enjoy the UTV desert adventure add-on.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

💡Book by reservation only — walk-ins are not accepted, so plan ahead
Add the sloth encounter when booking any tour; it sells out separately
🎟️Weekday UTV tours include optional roundtrip transport from Las Vegas — a useful option if driving is inconvenient
🚗Wear closed-toe shoes and sun protection; the site is open desert terrain

The place is definitely run down in a sense, however the entire experience is more than worth it. That gentleman is very knowledgeable and passionate about his collection of animals. You'll enjoy learning alot about camels as well as porcupine, llamas, and other animals.

Overview

Set on 176 acres about an hour north of Las Vegas, Camel Safari combines hands-on animal encounters with desert adventure. Tour options include camel rides, a Safari Tram, and UTV off-road tours across Mojave terrain. The zoo houses camels (including a baby named Janusz), alpacas, llamas, horses, goats, porcupines, a two-toed sloth named Ambien, and New Guinea singing dogs. Add-on sloth encounters let visitors get extra-close to Ambien. All visits are by reservation.
