Intresting

★★★★★

We decided first to go for dune bashing and it was fun! Desert camp, food and camel riding were interesting (we also stayed overnight, had a free shisha, saw amazing sunset and sunrise). BUT... Day city tour to Abu Dhabi was the most horrible tour I have experienced in my life!...
