Ebrima was an excellent...

5.00Ebrima was an excellent tour guide and driver! We were originally concerned about the cost and whether or not the trip would be worth it. This trip was absolutely worth it! All five of us were able to ride camels for a significant amount of time and we had a wonderful camel guide. The falcon show was super cool and although none of us are really into birds it was just really amazing and we found ourselves first in line to hold the bird. When we arrived at the camp after sunset, the entertainment and food was amazing. The food was especially good! After that was done we got a lesson in stargazing that was pretty amazing as well. 10 out of 10, would definitely do again! Might actually do again!
The best desert safari!

5.00This experience was hands down one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. As a solo traveler I cannot recommend this enough. Best money I’ve ever spent. Our guide Karim made sure the experience was one to remember for all the group.
