It was great to have nearly everything included. The 4 wheel drive in the sand was great, the camel riding was great, the sand boarding was great. Food was great. Downfalls was the quad bike! This was too expensive as an add on. Also the constant 'nagging' of buying add ons at the entertainment area was too much. I was also not aloud to get a henna due to being male, which I can understand and respect rules in counties but would of loved to been part of that experience. Overall I Understand it is a budget friendly adventure however these things did make the experience not as enjoyable as I would of liked.

The driver was fine. He left us there when we arrived and the first surprise was the camel. They don't tell you that it only includes a 1 minute ride. If you want more and they let you take pictures you have to pay more per person. The food you have to wait for a lot and they try to sell you a VIP pass and you have to buy things. The shows are ok. The food was garbage. We would not repeat b

My wife and I love every part of it, from driving in the desert, the camel ride, the music, the food, the sandboarding and above all we had the best driver, Ranjit was very nice, friendly and professional. I'll recommend for people to drive with him always. He's the best. Always ready to answer your questions and very punctual. We absolutely loved it and will always come back
