Camels are native to Asia, Africa, Arabia.

The ancestors of modern camels originated in the Americas, then during the later Ice Ages migrated over the Bering Land Bridge into Asia, and eventually to their current locations. Except for a few species like the llamas and alpacas in South America, the camels in the Americas went extinct.
