👋 About Us and our Camels

​

Camel Treks Australia & Nomadic Spirit Journeys

​

We’re Paul Ellis and Karen Jane Ellis —partners in life, camels, and meaningful travel. For over 25 years, we’ve been walking slowly through some of the world’s most extraordinary landscapes—in Australian, through India’s Thar, over Morocco’s Atlas Mountains, and into the Gobi desert of Mongolia.

​

Our work is more than tourism. It’s a commitment to ethical, animal-centric experiences, respectful cultural exchange, and deep connection with nature, people, and place.

​

At the heart of everything we do are the camels—each one known by name and treated with gentleness, patience, and love. Whether in Australia or abroad, our journeys are personally guided by us, not outsourced or packaged. We walk beside our guests, sharing campfires, stories, and moments that matter.

​

Our journeys are shaped by long-standing relationships with traditional custodians, nomadic families, and local guides—people we know, respect, and return to again and again. When you travel with us, you’re welcomed into those trusted spaces too.

​

We’ve never believed in rushing for us, our camels or you. 


We believe in travel that nourishes, slows you down, and reminds you what matters.


And we’d love to share it with you.

The Director Karen-Jane Ellis and staff of Nomadic Spirit Journeys & Camel Treks Australia extend their gratitude to Shane and Debbie Oldfield of Clayton Station, a pioneering fifth-generation family along the 'Birdsville Track', for graciously allowing us to share their home. We also extend our equal acknowledgment to the Dieri Aboriginal people, the traditional owners of the Dieri lands. We pay our respects to their Elders, past, present, and emerging, recognising and honouring the profound spiritual connection that Aboriginal people hold with the Country.​​​
