Une magnifique journée grâce à Khaled, guide passionné, connaissant bien la région, son histoire, sa culture. Nous l'avons rencontré le dernier jour et il a embelli notre séjour (trop touristique). Nous avons découvert une partie authentique du sud, quelques étapes Star Wars à la demande de mon mari. Khaled connait tous les coins et recoins, la nature, la faune, les sites, une source de connaissances précieuses. Agence à faire pour découvrir le pays en circuit privé, sans les masses de touristes ;-) ! Un regret: l'avoir rencontré trop tard, il va falloir revenir pour la suite ;-) !
