Description

Context The camel ride in Chayofa takes place on a traditional agricultural estate in southern Tenerife, where camels coexist with native vegetation such as prickly pears, fig trees, and banana plantations. Since 1988, this breeding center has offered a unique experience blending nature and local culture, featuring a 20-minute journey that gently ascends through the farm, where the dry scent of prickly pears lingers in the air.

The Experience After a warm welcome, you’ll mount a camel for a peaceful guided ride led by experienced staff, who explain how these animals store water and endure long periods without drinking. The route winds through cultivated fields and native plant species, with sunlight gently warming your skin. At the end, you’ll visit the farm, where you can feed donkeys, goats, turtles, and Canarian pigs using fresh fruit. The experience concludes with a traditional appetizer on the terrace, enjoying panoramic views of the estate and feeling the warm southern breeze of Tenerife.

Not recommended for individuals with severe allergies to animals or plants, or for those with limited mobility without assistance.

Local Context The farm reflects traditional Canarian agriculture, where camels live alongside native species and farm animals. Staff follow respectful practices toward both animals and environment, preserving a rural heritage in an increasingly urbanized region.
