Fahad was a great tour guide! He was able to answer questions about scenery on the way to the desert and gave us an exciting ride up and down the sand dunes. He also went above and beyond to capture photos of our experience. We enjoyed the ATV rides and sand dunes the most, including the sand boarding!

Our tour guide/ driver, Khalifa was really helpful and skilled, he made us scream but at the same time we were safe , it was really fun doing the tour with him. The program was organized but unfortunately the quality of the food was not very great.

The desert safari was a great experience. Our guide, Hamood was very friendly and helpful with questions we had during the trip. The fine bashing and sand boarding was a great experience. Our campsite was quaint and the entertainment was great. Would recommend to try this to my network.

Mostly of all, we like our guide's behaviour - Khalid, a respectful and great person who took care of us whole trip. That also was great experience on dunes 4x4 where we took great pictures. Less joy we experienced on dinner time. You all should find another difference between standard and vip ticket. After half of day, late in evening when we got the camp, we found that dinner time would be after other one hour😢...not really nice when you are with hungry kids:(
