I loved everything about this excursion from start to finish. Everyone was so nice, friendly and welcoming! The tour guide Mustafa ensured that I had a great experience especially as a solo traveler. The camel ride with Anwar Ali was amazing. He made the camel ride a lot of fun. I was anxious in the beginning of the camel ride abs he was able to alleviate my anxiety and take some great pictures for me. It was clear that the camel adores him. I had some delicious tea and got a henna tattoo. The food was plentiful and delicious. I highly recommend this excursion! Amazing experience!

What a fantastic night! We had such a great time on our camel ride followed by a delicious dinner with entertainment. Even though it was ridiculously hot, and we were covered in sweat by the end, we still thoroughly enjoyed our time. The hospitality was great- our driver Imran treated us like VIPs and showed us things along the drive out to the camp, and at the camp we were constantly offered refreshing drinks, coffee and they made sure we didn’t miss out on any of the activities. If you want something a little less blood pumping then quad bikes and dune bashing, this is the trip for you!
One of the most memorable experiences, I have ever had!

I had one of the best times of my life!!! Words cannot explain the joys I felt on the trip. From picking me up to. The driver sharing culture history. I was enveloped the whole time. The camel ride through the desert, looking at the stars. Most important of all. The dinner experience itself was everything I expect it to be. The people were so welcoming and joyous! I am very thankful to have meet them all! I look forward to returning one day and doing it again!

Everything was very memorable to us. The food, ambience, customer service, music and entertainment. There was no pressure to buy anything. They kept us well informed while at the camp. The food was flavorful, fresh and pleasing to the palette.

Beautiful experience, very well organized and many nice activities to do! The camel ride on the dunes was great but also the tea / sweets tasting, stargazing , shisha, dance/fire shows, and henna added value to the experience. Thanks to our great tour guide Saeed!!
