My family took this tour yesterday and it was really lovely. The information and sights were fabulous, and the hospitality we received at the hands of Lobna (our tour guide), Mohammad (our driver), and Mohammad (our in-adventure driver and host for lunch) was just wonderful! We had a great day.
Wael was a great guide, so knowledgeable, with excellent English language skills. We enjoyed the desert scenery. Learning about the fossil whales was fascinating. The driver took us hurtling over the dunes in a rollercoaster ride!
