My Review: Absolutely fantastic! Worth every penny and then some! I have many food allergies and they were able to direct me to what I was able to eat which was a lot! The on-site chef phoned his head chef to double check three times and never made me feel like it was a problem. HE wanted to be sure! That care is something special and I appreciated it!
Mike the star man was superb. His show was outstanding and he readily shared his knowledge with one and all even after the main story-telling. A small group of us were talking for a long time by the telescopes after he showed us the rings of Saturn! Incredible. I never imagined that I would see that!
We had a birthday girl at our table and as we sang her Happy Birthday, the waiters surprised us all with a platter of small yummy treats and a beautifully chocolate written note. That was above and beyond!
The staff was very caring, fun and attentive. The bus driver was jovial and punctual. Shannon, our head waiter, was on top of every need anyone had.
The appetizers were plentiful as was the beverages offered as we watched sunset listening to our cute diji player. The rest of the wait staff was efficient and friendly. It truly was a once in a lifetime experience! I am so glad I went!!!!

My Review: Our Sunset camel ride was an amazing event. The trip to the farm was quick and enjoyable. Once there we had everything we needed supplied to us and then the fun began! Our camel-leer was Darrel and outstanding photos were taken by another man. We were able to take our own cameras and snap away whenever we wanted. I purchased the disc of shots and a single 5x7 provided at the end of the ride. I have NO regrets! It was an excellent photo journal of our trip on the camels!
The camels were all well-behaved and really seemed to enjoy taking us for a ride. They were very comfortable and ambled happily along chewing whatever they had. I was happily alone on my camel "Randy". He was a charmer!
After riding out to sunset and learning about everything from the flora to the rights of the spiritual people who own the land, we returned to the barn to the warm smell of delicious fresh baked bread. There was quite a spread provided and an abundance of beverages ranging from water, sodas, beers, wine and the most tasty sparkling wine I tasted my whole trip! We left the barn with full tummies!
I highly recommend the Camel rides and enjoyed the walk through the desert immensely! This was a highlight of my trip!
