A very wonderful and special tour!

5.00A very wonderful and special tour! In contrast to other providers who drive with 8 jeeps in column or even with the coach, there were only five of us (driver Saoúd, guide Khaled, another guest and us) on the road with a Toyota Landcruiser. Saoùd is a great and safe driver. I quickly get travel sick, but he drove extremely gently and considerately in the mountains for my sake and kept asking if I was okay. Khaled gave us an incredible amount of background information about the country, people and history in very good German and always led us where no tourists were (food not at the hotspots, but in other quiet places). Both boys are incredibly sympathetic, exceptionally thoughtful and very concerned that their guests are doing well and are missing nothing. They really fulfilled our every wish, stopped where we wanted and left us more than enough time everywhere. A super individual trip, Thumbs up, highly recommended! Unfortunately, you cannot award 6 stars!!
