Our driver, Aftab, was way too touchy touchy and a tad creepy. He made my boyfriend and I very uncomfortable. Keep your hands to yourself sir!
They suggest to pay by Dirhams in person and if you pay by credit card, they charge 8% extra.
Bring your own face scarf, goggles, sunglasses, helmet, whatever because they do not provide anything.
You get one bottle of water if you request it.
I booked a Tuesday morning excursion for two. Our driver, Aftab, messaged us and picked us up at 4:30 a.m., we were the only passengers, which was nice.
We drove to the desert and waited outside and in the car (because it was so cold) until 6:42 a.m. to watch the sunrise.
Would have been nice if Aftab informed us to bring jackets.
Afterwards, we sat on a snow board and went down a dune a few times and took a bunch of pictures.
Then he drove us around the dunes “sand bashing” nothing special. Aftab had to check on his tires a few times.
Next, we drove to the ATV camp, the store person and Aftab tried to make us buy face scarfs, but we declined. We paid by credit card at the camp.
The annoying part, was we asked Aftab if we needed to bring a face scarf but he said no.
We were led by a guy on a 4 wheeler, we picked the two person ATV.
We drove around for about an hour, stopped to take pictures, and a random guy came up with a falcon and let it sit on our heads, arms, fist and took a bunch of photos for us.
Then right after asked for money. We declined and told him he should have told us it cost extra, he kept insisting we pay him, but walked off mumbling stuff. I’m sure cussing us out!
This excursion is overpriced and not worth it.
