Great experience, terrible operator (STE transfers)

Shakeel_H, Jun 2026

This is no reflection on the camel ride operators, but the tour operators STE TRANSFERS, who never bothered to even collect us. Leaving us waiting at the hotel despite us having confirmation of pickup, no calls or texts to say there were any issues. After waiting around for 45 mins we were left very disappointed after our hotel contacted them to discover that they were saying they didn’t even have a booking for us. This left my young daughter very upset as she was very excited about it and ruined our evening. After contacting Viator we were disappointed again to learn that the operators weren’t even willing to refund us which is ridiculous since they claimed we didn’t have a booking but they were happy to take our money so Viator said they would extend a refund to us on this occasion for the disappointment. We since booked via getyourguide using another operator and had a great time but I would avoid this operator in future as they seem very unprofessional, unresponsive and unreasonable.

Thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry to hear about your experience and especially that your daughter was disappointed. We would like to clarify that the issue was not related to the camel ride operators or the activity itself. Unfortunately, the booking date modification made through the booking platform was never communicated to our company. As a result, we did not receive the updated reservation details and were therefore unable to arrange the pickup and activity for your booking. We understand how frustrating this situation was and sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused. Had we received the updated booking information, we would have made all the necessary arrangements to ensure your experience went smoothly. Please contact us directly with your booking details so that we can review your case and process the appropriate refund. We value our guests and would welcome the opportunity to resolve this matter for you. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

It was an experience...

Luly_S, Jun 2026

It was a wonderful experience! The organization was impeccable: very punctual with the schedules, very kind and welcoming from the moment we arrived. They welcomed us by offering traditional clothing to take beautiful photos, a detail that we greatly appreciated. The camels appeared well cared for, calm, and treated with respect in their environment. The walk was exciting, and the duration of one hour allows you to fully enjoy the experience, being in contact with these splendid animals, admiring the landscape at sunset, and taking many photos. Our guide was really nice and helpful: she took several photos of me and my companion, both individually and together; she even made a video for us and gifted us a beautiful handcrafted item. At the end of the walk, they offered us a delicious mint tea, a very appreciated gesture that perfectly concluded the experience. I recommend this experience without any doubt. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making my first camel ride so special and unforgettable!
