We liked our trip to the Bedouin village, all in all it was a great experience

The drive to the village is 50 minutes on bumpy roads, which we didn’t expect to be that long. The Quad drive and the buggy tour was fun however sometimes difficult because some drivers in front of us didn’t listen to the rules explained in advance.

Visit to a Bedouin village

We visited the Bedouin village, with their typical decor. They offered us mint tea and had us cook their own bread. A very characteristic experience, a culture I didn't know about... that's what travel is for.
