Our 2 days tour was great. We were paired with Ykram as driver and he has been fantastic. He was a great driver but also a very knowledgeable guide, and we loved he shared so many information with us. Even if his English might not have been 100% he really explained us a lots of things, showed us the wildlife in the desert and really went an extra mile to make us enjoying our tour. We enjoyed every minute of our tour: the yurta was great and the food was amazing. The booking process was also super reliable and our driver was early on the pick up day. The yurta camp has toilets and shower facilities, however remember to pack something warm for the night.Our tour guide was very friendly, spoke English and was very knowledgable. The tour was great, we saw much local wildlife in the desert, the camel rides were a highlight as was the musical performance in the evening. The food was also good and the yurt camp was comfortable. Can definitely recommend!
