Tarek was a great guide! We spent a couple of hours here, arriving early as you need to (some other tours have pick-ups at 9 am, which is way too late). Tarek answered questions, helped us buy food and drink, and protected us from runaway camels. He was knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. Great experience, great guide.
