Originally we only booked the camel ride but due to unforseen conditions we were not picked up on our sheduled day and had to go the next day. Next day they got us a private taxi with one other couple to the desert. Greeted by 2 very nice people and asked if we would like to stay for dinner after the camel ride as a compensation we agreed to this. Then we were taken to the camp and offered tea and treated very well. Then we were taken to the camels put on protection for the sun and we got on the camel. It was a very fun ride and very beautiful the sun was going down I absolutely recommend a sunset ride. Before the dinner there was some entertainment in the form of singing and dancing by the campfire. The dinner was very good it was a buffet style made in tajines. More than enough food for everyone and very tasty. You cannot find a better deal in my opinion. - Dean
