It was a blast! Lots of fun! The entire staff and especially our guide Mudasar were amazing. We went with my grandma, who has a hard time walking, and the staff was very kind and accommodating. This was different than the typical desert safari and I think I would prefer this one over the other every time. The views were breathtaking, the animals majestic, the food delicious and the people were amazing! Highly recommend.
