very interesting excursion, especially the fossils of marine animals and the extraordinary landscape.
It was a great day and very full. Our guide Karma was great! She made us taste fallafels and cane juice en route to the desert. She listened to our wishes and did not rush us if we wanted to take pictures. The whale cemetery is interesting to see. The jeep ride was great and the magic lake beautiful. I was a little less impressed by the fall.
Let me start with our guide Youssef, very profesional, friendly and easygoing. Our driver and he were so patient and kind. The itinerary is complete and amazing, I love that they were punctual, and leading us to the best locations and we had so much fun! I highly recommend to take this trip.
