When people travel to Japan, the last thing they think about is riding camels (available in the summer time) in Japan. In the prefecture of Tottori on the west coast of mainland Japan, you can do just that. The majestic Tottori Sand Dunes, which spans 10 miles or 2.25 miles, is regarded as part of the San'in Kaigan National Park and it is the by far the largest natural sand dune in Japan. You will only find these kinds of sand dunes in the Tottori prefecture.
Camel riding (Rakuda-ya) in Japan is a very rare and cool experience. When you are at the Tottori sand dunes, you feel like you are in Egypt, but you are in Japan. Camel riding is 1500 yen for 3 minutes. It is a very quick ride, but the experience itself is worth it all. It makes for a great instagram shot as many of my friends thought that I was vacationing in Egypt.
