The driver arrived at the meeting point on time and was very friendly. His car was very clean, the ride with him was great fun and he drove safely. But that was about it for the lovely tour. Afterwards we came to a camp where you had to pay extra if you didn't want to sit on plastic chairs. The same goes for drinks from cans. You could also opt for free drinks but I wouldn't recommend them as the container was not clean and the Pepsi in it was mixed with ice cubes. The food was awful but you could also get better food for a VIP fee!!! Never again with this provider!!! We left without food or drinks beforehand and without watching the show!!!
Dear Alexander, Thank you so much for your feedback. I apologize for the unpleasant experience you had. I will try to investigate the issue so that it will be addressed by the concerned staff. As we do not have direct control in the campsite, what I can do is to highlight the same so that these kind of actions will be rectified. As far as soft drinks are concerned, I know they are served in can at the counter, the same with the water. Food at the VIP table are the same in the buffet. The only difference is that, with the VIP, they are being served first, and the staff will do it for the guest. There are dedicated staff to serve them. Thank you for your time. Regards

Tour was unforgettable. It was very well planned, and the itinerary was very well timed, with enough time for all activities. Our English-speaking driver was extremely pleasant and accommodating. The sand dune bashing is an absolute must!!! The kids loved the camel rides, ATV rides, and sand surfing.
Great experience, loved the dune bashing, highlight was Bedouin show but be prepared to pay extra for privileged dinning position if not wanting to wait in line for food. Overall highly recommended.
