If we could give more than five stars, we would. The tour was an absolutely amazing and memorable experience! Not only did we learn so much during the time, but our Egyptian tour guide Ahmed Elshemy and our driver Shafiq really made sure to meet our individual requests and make the tour „ours“. Have done group tours before, not even slightly comparable. Everyone who has the chance to go on this tour should absolutely take it, it was worth every last cent!!

We loved everything about this safari. It was so much fun. We went to a camel farm, did dune bashing and camel riding and then the overnight stay in the desert, everything was amazing and memorable. Good small group tour, didn’t feel too rushed as well. Ahmed was an incredible tour guide and made the experience even better, he was funny and informative and made us feel very comfortable. We would highly recommend this tour.

It was an amazing and unique experience. I got to see live camel race and learned a lot about those lovely animals. The host and guide are equally amazing. We are well taken cared of. One should do this when visiting UAE
