Desert experience with action and fascinating starry skies

Alexandra_H, Feb 2026
An all-round successful experience – highly recommended! At the beginning we started with a quad tour. Afterwards we were warmly welcomed, served tea and given interesting insights into the life of the Bedouins and their traditions. Afterwards we had the opportunity to try a short camel ride. There was also a tent with various animals such as turtles, a monkey, birds as well as snakes and two small scorpions. It was interesting to see these animals up close, even if this program item was not absolutely necessary for us personally. Afterwards, the jeep tour began: We were allowed to drive the jeeps ourselves while a guide drove ahead and led the group – that was really fun and a real adventure. In the evening we had a very delicious meal with an atmospheric show and music. The finale was a view through the telescope of the Moon and the stars. We got a lot of exciting information about the starry sky – very impressive and interesting. In the end, the quad bike was back – a varied and eventful day with many special impressions.

Action alternative to beach holidays

Hamid our guide was very dedicated, told us a lot about the Bedouins and the starry sky. You could tell that he knows the subject well and reported with passion. Unfortunately, it was a little short of time for stargazing. The food was very delicious, the people very nice, all in all a successful day.

Très bonne expérience

Merci Arabi de nous avoir transmis ta passion. Ciel incroyable, pas de pollution lumineuse, beau matériel. Nous avons eu beaucoup de chance car nous étions que deux et Arabi a adapté le programme à nos souhaits.

Sehr empfehlenswert

Karin_L, Oct 2023
Der Tripp war super. Mit den Ausflügen unterstützt man außerdem Beduinen-Familien, was klasse ist. Das Essen war hervorragend! Lediglich die Zeit zum Sterne beobachten mit dem Teleskop war viel zu kurz. Auch gab es noch ziemlich viel Restlicht im Umkreis von 20-30 km. Daher hat man nicht die Menge an Sternen gesehen, wie bei kompletter Dunkelheit. Die Gesamtdauer des Ausflugs war leider auch ein bisschen kurz.
