Not a Tour
Rogene_S, Apr 2024
The information regarding this tour is misleading. It is not a tour, but rather it consists of a driver who transports you to the sites. He did not provide us w knowledge of the region or the sites. You would be better off simply hiring a driver that can be arranged by your hotel and is less costly.
Driver only who didn’t know where he was going
Mark_R, Nov 2023
Driver was nice and on time. However, he had never been to either the desert castles or the wetland reserve. In fact, he got lost and we were making circles in back streets in some small town off the highway. He had no water do he had to stop to buy some. And he offered no additional information on where we were going.
Our Guide Adnan Hamdan...

Our Guide Adnan Hamdan was very knowledgeable, he pointed all the best parts to see, gave insight of the places he brought us to see, we we're a group of 7. All enjoyed our day

Thanks for your support......... and we are looking forward to serving you again
An amazing environment
Neil R, Oct 2019
This tour is well worth doing not just to see the castles, which were fascinating, but to experience the Eastern Desert - a very strange environment. Our driver Mohammed was excellent company and the vehicle was comfortable. Well worthwhile.

Castillos ok reserva no
Mariadelmar_L, Dec 2022
Los castillos están bien, sobre todo los dos primeros. La reserva no merece la pena, hay que pagar alli 8JD y no lo vale. El conductor muy amable y profesional.
