No language required. Best experience 👍 - Since the guide who stayed overnight with me, who was in charge along the way, could not speak English, we suddenly communicated with each other and stayed overnight in the desert. Camping in the desert was so open and amazing. I felt incredibly high hospitality, so there was no problem. You can also enjoy a sense of survival by having the car engine stop and everyone push you away. Expectations for explanations may be subtle, but I am rather satisfied to be exposed directly to the great outdoors. The rice was also delicious. The Englishman who said he was having so much fun on his way home that he was in his 11th week and volunteered to translate for him. If I can meet this person well, there will be commentary.

It was extraordinary. - I was able to experience many things I wouldn't normally experience, and the guides were friendly. The desert scenery and starry sky were great.

Immersed in the desert - We participated in this experience as a couple, it was a bit challenging but it is really worth it. Drivers and guides always try to put you at ease and make the journey even more comfortable. The jeep was comfortable and we could see stunning scenery, even the food was good. We slept very well in the tents they provided and we had a really good time. An experience that you do not expect but leaves you breathless.

Good but not worth the price - My honest review Pros - Came right on time for pick-up - Well-organised, camping, tent was comfortable. One can fit-in and sleep well @ night (till 6ft height) - Dinner food was very good. - Night time near bon fire, meeting with fellow travellers, sound/music/dance, organizers entertain well. Good experience. - Star gazing @ night was awesome - the experience of white desert, black desert, crystal mountain is worth experiencing and very refreshing. Cons - Very very long drive- around 6 hrs to reach the destination. Same you've to spend to come back. - Not a single water bottle provided for 6 hrs straight. Make sure to carry one or purchase your own when they stop the car - lunch food- many varieties but tasted average. Second day Breakfast- Average. - A good experience but not worth the price. 240 US$ for two people on sharing cab/ tent. So the services or facilties provided seems too pricey.

Good but not worth the money and time! - My honest review Pros - Driver came right on time for pick-up - Well-organised, camping, tent was comfortable. One can fit-in and sleep well @ night (till 6ft height) - Dinner food was very good. - Night time near bon fire, meeting with fellow travellers, sound/music/dance, organizers entertain well. Good experience. - Star gazing @ night was awesome - the experience of white desert, black desert, crystal mountain is worth experiencing and very refreshing. Cons - Very very long drive- around 6 hrs to reach the destination. Same you've to spend to come back. Even when u reach, most time is spent on the cab and little on the excursions. - Not a single water bottle provided for 6 hrs straight after pick-up. Make sure to carry one or purchase your own when they stop the car - lunch food- many varieties but tasted average. Second day Breakfast- Average taste. - A good experience but not worth the price. 240 US$ for two people on sharing cab/ tent, with almost zero facilties didnt feel worth. It must be the case with all tour operators. If you are okay with the cons, you can definitely choose this tour company. They were well-organised, timely and well-behaved. They ask all to give 5 stars by end of the tour which i didnt like.
