“The tour was wonderful! Mamdouh was a great guide and driver. We went to all of the listed stops, and I was given plenty of time to climb or hike up all of the rock formations. There is Bedouin tea at nearly every stop. You can even try sandboarding (or sledding with a sandboard) at one of the later stops. I had a morning tour with lunch, which was at a restaurant in the village. The portion sizes are big. The tour went as planned, even though it was just me during low season.”
