Where do I begin? It began with a late start of 1 hour 10 minutes waiting for our pick up. Then of course our family of 5 sat in the last and worst seats in the full mini van. An hour long drive out into the edge of the desert... then a 30 minute Dune bashing experience when we got into our various landcruisers. Then literally a 7 minute stop in the middle of the desert for our "photo session". We barely took 4 to 6 shots and we were bundled back to the cars, and dune bashed 5 minutes to go back to the mini van. We hung around this stopping point for a further 45 minutes. Then back in the mini-van for a further 30 min drive to another desert stop. Bundled out and into another landcruiser (the family was split up to fill in each car as they saw fit) for a 10 min desert transfer to the "campsite". Then we were shuffled to our seats for the evening program. Forget the "special photo shoot", Henna painting, Camel Ride and Shisha offerings... they offered next to nothing, and asked for more money to get the "proper" experience! Food buffet was not bad, if you forget the fact that they bundle into lines, like prison inmates! HOWEVER... redeeming factor... the evening shows were wonderful! All in all, I am shocked Singapore Airlines's Pelago will have these tour operators in their collection of offers. Never again!!
