Then it will float through the valleys, and descend through the desert, over the dunes, gazelles, camels, wildlife and beautiful landscapes. After landing our vehicles will take you to our camp for a gourmet breakfast where you will be able to take some photos with the falcons and the camel ride.

Pilots and driver and guy that served breakfast lovely, area we went over very built up and only flew 4000 feet for ten minutes The guy said 50 euro for the video, my friend wanted one so we paid, no receipt and very disappointing you could not see the balloon just everyone together not the view and very small as sent on WhatsApp, very, very unprofessional They did mot care if you got on the camel no encouragement, when advertised the falcon looks as it’s flying to the balloon, you only hold the falcon he has blinkers on I asked for them to be removed they said cos he would fly, after taking the blinker off he didn’t budge the said shake him, his feathers only went a bit up Lots of flies, food in plastic boxes, guy serving was lovely There was no fun, they were all serious Quite hi yo climb in eventually they got s ladder getting in but nothing getting out, a lady offered me water as it was hot, then they offered us water I am writing so much as the say a min review i think wad 300

We literally just got back to the hotel and I couldn’t wait to write this review! We had planned a trip to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary, and we thought this would be a great idea. However, we were deeply disappointed with our experience. We paid $626.00 USD for breakfast, which included bologna, hotdogs, and a mysterious meat mixture with pork and beans, along with fruit and powdered eggs. The food looked absolutely disgusting, and we couldn’t bring ourselves to eat it. To make matters worse, they offered an extra $60 for additional video and pictures, which we found to be completely worthless. We had taken better photos and videos with our own phones. I messaged to asked for the edited version of the video they promised I’m still waiting on them to respond! One of the most disappointing aspects of the trip was the camel ride. Instead of a relaxing experience, we were confined to the back of a trailer and made to go in circles. It was a complete waste of money and felt like a scam. The only positive aspect of the trip was the balloon ride. It was relaxing until someone started playing loud music, which ruined the experience. To top it off, we had to ride there and back in the third row of a vehicle designed for toddlers. It was uncomfortable and made the entire trip even more unpleasant. Overall, we had a terrible experience and would never recommend this place to anyone.

Experienced friendly and serious crew. To fly over the desert at sunrise was really a experience. Just do it, you only live once, today's the day, and now is the moment. You won't regret it.
