Beautiful desert ride

It has been a very nice experience. And really got an excellent service. Everything neat on time and good communication. Beautiful car ride through the desert. The waterfall is beautiful but it is no longer a natural occurrence. Wadi al Hitan is beautiful in the middle of the desert and you have beautiful views. The tour with us was shorter than expected. As compensation they took us to the museum the next day. Super fixed If you want to see the desert then this is a must.
