“A great, interesting trip. The program was 100% realized. A professional, dedicated guide - Muataz. He gave us a lot of interesting information. The transport was a minus.

One person had to travel almost 400 km on a folding seat in the trunk, which was very uncomfortable.”

“Ali notre guide a été vraiment top. Extrêmement gentil et serviable. Dans l’ensemble les 3 jours permettent de voir les indispensables mais tellement de voiture!! Beaucoup trop de route. Le premier jour Nizwa, le souk, le fort, l’arrivée dans le désert. Super. J’ai trouvé que le camp n’était pas terrible. Beaucoup moins bien que sur les photos. Et aucune ambiance le soir. Je m’attendais à un dîner feu de camp. Pas du tout. C’était un buffet chacun à sa table. Le deuxième jour nous avons fait bcp de voiture et franchement ça ne valait pas la peine. Le troisième jour c’était super. Globalement , c’est chouette mais le deuxième jour…”
