What would you do if you were lost while travelling? Most of us would probably open an app like Uber and hope for the best. But what if you were in a desert? What if instead of a car, a camel shows up as your ride? Sounds bizarre right? Well, that’s exactly what happened to two women recently.
In a video that has gone viral on Instagram, two women found themselves stranded in the Dubai desert while driving along the Dubai-Hatta Road. Trying to figure out their next move, they opened the Uber app and were shocked to see a camel ride option, along with the usual ride choices.
They went on to book a camel, and after a while, a man actually arrived with a camel!
The man, who introduced himself as an ‘Uber Camel driver’ explained that he helps people who get lost in the desert. He even mentioned that booking a camel online is a legitimate option.
Here’s a video of the entire incident:

Looks like in Dubai, you don’t need a car to get rescued. Just a trusty camel!
