"The experience here, if you have business or daily matters to attend to, the guys here will do your role and more than what you do for your camels."

Camels have to pass a medical examination to check-in

[Camel Owner, Naif Al-Dawsari]

"They provide services ranging from doctor examinations, guarding your camels, and security. This makes you and your camels are comfortable, but this costs more like 1,000 Saudi Riyals instead of 400."
