Showed up and hour past the excursions booked time, even disappeared with his car whole we were on the 4 wheelers.

Showed up and hour after the time we initially booked for so we had to hurry through everything. Whays worse he even disappeared and left everyone to go somewhere and was gone 20 minutes or more. He knew everyone he had, had flights to catch that evening. Because of him he had me scurrying to be on time. This excursion put me behind by an hour and a half because of him I could have missed my flight, he was told and the company was told about the time in which i needed to be back which was 630 pm no later than 645, he and the company assured me of this and I didnt get back to my hotel to get my things until 7:45pm! I Will not book with this company again.

Would recommend

Really good, entertaining and a cost effective combo deal. The only thing I wish they told us was they drive you drive to a place that does the sand dune quad bikes etc which cost £100+ each and if you don’t you must wait there until everyone is done. Otherwise the food in the evening was good. The entertainers were great but there were very big pauses in between. The fire trio did well considering there was a power cut! Cool experience of the desert etc and I would recommend paying extra for the dinner as the food is amazing.

Operator response

Little pure event time

The event should have been lasted 3,5-4 hours. In fact we were picked up at 09:00 and dropped off at 11:50. Most of the time were spent on the ride from the hotel and back. The pure event time lasted 29 min.: we had 1) camel ride (4 minutes), 2) sandboarding and taking pics (15 minutes) and 3) jeep safari (10 minutes).
