Great Dessert Adventure

Rashid was great. Very personable and knowledgeable. Our “gentler” version of the Dessert Safari was exactly what we wanted. Make sure you request Rashid for this adventure.

Chooser Another Desert Experience.

Well, we enjoyed the camel ride which was about 5 minutes. The Dune ride was fun, but we could to sand board, so we were told. What we were not informed of is at the beginning of the tour, we drove maybe 10 minutes, as they had to stop at a petrol station to fuel up. So we sat there 15-20 minutes. Then we were taken out to this 4 wheeler place to ride the 4 wheelers if you wanted to. They were extremely expensive for a 30 minute ride (several hundred dollars depending on the bike you would choose). If you opted out you just sat there for 1 1/2 hours (as there were a lot of people there). There was no cultural village experience, unless you include the camel ride area after the dune ride, where there were just sitting areas for you to sit at if your tour did not include the camel ride. I would not suggest this tour. If you want to go out to the desert, I would suggest a private tour where you don’t spend the majority of your time just waiting around or spending hundred of unexpected dollars to do anything. I did like our guide, but he was filling in for the day and has his own private tour company. He kept apologizing to us for this experience and even offered to buy us dinner before he dropped us off. So, go to the desert, but do a private tour.
