Nomadic Spirit Journeys and
Camel Treks Australia
Australian & International Small Group Safaris
Slow Travel. Real Connection. Journeys That Stay With You.
🏜️ Ethical & Sustainable with a Personal Touch
Nomadic Spirit Journeys & Camel Treks Australia, is a small, family-owned business delivering personally guided, carefully curated experiences—never mass-produced tours.
Every journey we offer is led by us, Paul & Karen-Jane. With over 25 years of experience, we ensure each expedition is thoughtfully designed, immersive, and deeply connected to nature and culture.
Through years of building trusted relationships in the regions we travel, we’ve fostered deep connections with local communities, nomadic families, and traditional guides. This genuine connection can be felt by you, enriching your experience in a way that mass tourism cannot. Guests benefit from authentic interactions, exclusive access, and the warm hospitality of the people who welcome us into their world.
Under the Camel Treks Australia banner, we offer authentic Outback experiences in South Australia. Meanwhile, Nomadic Spirit Journeys takes our expertise internationally to Mongolia, India, Turkey, and Morocco—always with a focus on ethical travel, respect for traditions, and true cultural exchange.
🐪 Camels Come First – They are treated with utmost care and respect, never overloaded, and free to eat throughout the day and night.
🌍 More Than Just a Trip – Our journeys directly support remote communities, honour local traditions, and foster genuine connections between travellers and the people we visit.
♻ Sustainable, Low-Impact Travel – Every trek has off-grid input and a nature-immersed focus, leaving no trace while offering a truly authentic, raw, and mindful experience.
👣 Led Personally by Paul & Karen-Jane – with Deep Local Insight
Every journey is personally guided—no outsourcing, no middle layers—just seasoned and skilled leadership shaped by decades of experience. On international expeditions, we collaborate with accredited, bilingual local guides who are not only passionate about their culture, but also deeply receptive and generous in their storytelling. These partnerships bring each landscape and tradition to life in a way that’s both respectful and truly enriching.

💛 Travel With Us!
Whether you're walking beside camels in the Australian Outback or sipping tea with nomads in Mongolia, these are more than just holidays—they're immersive, heart-led experiences.
🐪 A Rare and Vanishing Experience – We are Australia’s last remaining camel riding trekking company and the only accredited, ethical animal-centric operator in the country. Internationally, we carry these same values across every Nomadic Spirit Journey. What we offer is one-of-a-kind, personal, and deeply respectful of the land, animals, and people.
🧭 Authenticity Over Imitation – No crowds. No cookie-cutter tours. Just real journeys—thoughtfully paced and grounded in meaning, whether you’re walking beside camels in the Outback or sharing tea with nomads on the Gobi Desert dunes of Mongolia.
❤️ A Journey With Heart – Guests often tell us they leave feeling nourished and reconnected—to nature, to themselves, and to something deeper.
✍️ Carefully Designed, Never Mass-Produced – Each itinerary is crafted with care and intention, drawing on over 25 years of experience and long-standing relationships in the places we travel—from Australia’s lesser-seen Tirari Desert, to India’s striking Thar Desert National Park, the majestic Atlas Mountains of North Africa, and the remote Altai Mountains of Mongolia.
🌾 Travel That Gives Back – Your journey directly supports remote communities, nomadic families, and Traditional custodians who generously share their Country or homelands with us.
🤝 You’re Never Too Old to Adventure – Most of our guests are mature-aged women and men, often travelling solo. Come as you are—you’ll be met with warmth, shared stories, and often leave with friendships that last long after the journey ends.
🪶 Genuine, Heartfelt Connection – Over decades, we’ve built trusted, long-standing relationships with local families, tribal leaders, and traditional guides. As a guest, you’ll feel the difference—these are real connections, not staged experiences.
These journeys are for those who seek meaning, stillness, and something truly real—whether it’s among Australia’s sand dunes or the far corners of the nomadic world. It's travel that lingers, long after the last camel has been unsaddled.
