Very beautiful experience
Very beautiful experience. 90 minutes on a camel is truly pleasant and different. The campsite is relatively good and the food is relatively good. Upon request, we were even able to buy wine.
A
Amazing desert experience
This was an amazing experience! The tour started with the camel ride through the dunes, watching the sunset on a peak, and then moved on to campsite. The food was great. Since we travelled in December the night was very cold, but the blankets were warm. Just be prepared to bring some warm hats.

Gonna repeat this trip!
The tour provider was exceptionally friendly, and the trip ran seamlessly. The views on our way to the camp were breathtaking, and the food provided there was delicious. I had booked one luxury tent for five people, but upon arrival, we were generously offered two tents instead, enhancing our comfort and experience!

Our adventure was beyond anything we could have imagined!

A truly immersive desert experience that we’ll treasure forever!
