I wouldn't go with them again.

Well.. first impression matters! Delayed pick up without warning... Operator phone goes straight to voicemail... Then, after they pick us up, right at the next hotel the guide starts blaming the tourists and tells us the guards at the hotel won't let him in at the reception because he's not trustworthy... I was staring to have douts... Long détours while picking up the other guests. The scenery in the desert is quite nice. The star watching is acceptable... Dinner so and so... Except for the very unprofessional guide during pick up and the whole pick up process, I would say the experience was agreeable.

Amazing!

The trip was amazing! Very family friendly! Jeep ride was pretty long and uncomfortable, but not enough to not recommend this trip

Erwartungen übertroffen

Ein wirklich runder und gelungener Ausflug. Man läuft ein paar hundert m hoch um den Sonnenuntergang zu sehen. Sehr beeindruckend. Essen war gut. Wüste einsam und weit, toller Sternenhimmel, es wurden Decken ausgebreitet zum hinlegen um bequem schauen zu können, dann wurde mit laserpointer erklärt. Kamelreiten war mega lustig. Ging von 15 Uhr bis 22uhr

Serata tra le stelle

Dopo un viaggio di circa un'ora e mezza tra il deserto e la città, siamo arrivati al caratteristico villaggio beduino in mezzo al deserto. Abbiamo potuto assaggiare il loro tè particolare e vivere la loro ospitalità. Anche osservare tramonto visto da una montagnetta vicino al villaggio è stata un'esperienza unica. Anche la cena è stata deliziosa. La parte più bella però è poter osservare le nitide stelle nel silenzio del deserto, con una guida esperta (Ibrahim!) che spiega nel dettaglio le costellazioni e poter osservare Saturno e Venere al telescopio! Direi perciò che il viaggio ne vale proprio la pena.

In a galaxy far far away

Moussa was amazing! Not only was he funny, attentive, knowledgeable, his enthusiasm was infectious. It was definitely a trip to remember.

Ambiance très agréable, mais pas de ciel particulièrement étoilé

L’activité commence à l’entrée du désert avec la Jeep. Nous sommes tombés sur un chauffeur qui est fier d’être le plus rapide du groupe. Nous avons pris des chemins sympas avec des sensations d’adrénaline très drôles ! Puis vient le moment du tour en chameau, qui ne fait qu’environ 60 m. Ensuite, on peut escalader une colline pour aller voir le coucher de soleil. Celui-ci ne nous a pas semblé avoir quoi que ce soit de spécial, si ce n’est qu’il est rapide : normal puisque nous sommes proche de l’Équateur. Et ensuite l’heure du repas, soi-disant bédouin : riz, tomates, poulet,… Arrive alors le moment que nous attendions tous : l’observation des étoiles ! Deux télescopes sont installés et chacun peut profiter d’une trentaine de secondes d’observation. Pour nous: l’une et saturne (en tout petit). Suite à quoi, étendus sur des couvertures, nous écoutons le guide expliquer des notions de base concernant l’astronomie. Mais le ciel ne montrait pas davantage d’étoiles que ce que nous avons en bordure de Ville en Europe… et les notions expliquées sont particulièrement basiques, ne révélant rien de plus que ce qu’on peut découvrir sur une application d’astronomie en quelques minutes. Nous espérions voir un ciel magnifiquement étoilé et nous avons été déçu. En revanche, l’ambiance était agréable et tout le monde était particulièrement chaleureux. Le titre de cette activité devrait peut-être s’appeler : « Passer une soirée dans le désert avec découverte de la vie bédouin, petit tour en chameau et brève observation des étoiles ». Nous aurions alors été prévenu.

Super tolles erlebnis

Die Jeepfahrt war lustig. Die Aussicht von den Hügel war wahnsinn und die Stille. Es gab Veganes und Glutenfreies Essen. Wir haben Saturn und Venus gehen und tolle Infos über den Sternenhimmel bekommen.

Stars in the Eyes 🌠👀

Une longue balade en 4x4, vous avez tout votre temps pour profiter de la vue somptueuse. 😍 Arrivée au campement bédouin. ⛺️ J'ai pu profiter d'une promenade en chameau. Sans oublier le thé hospitalier 👌🏾 Le guide nous a accompagnés dans les hauteurs pour observer la vue au coucher de soleil 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 Le buffet était copieux est correct. 😋 Et pour finir l'activité, il y a 2 télescopes pour voir les étoiles. 🌟 1 configuré pour votre téléphone. L'autre pour vos yeux. Une chose importante, le guide ne parle pas français (efficacité de 5 à 10 %). 🙈 Même s'il y a le choix sur Viator d'un guide français. 🇫🇷 Vous voilà prévenue. #voyage #aventure #désert
