Super !!! - It was really good! The driver, Majid Baloch, came to pick us up at the hotel and put us in the end. He was very friendly and took the time to explain the course of the evening. Little atmosphere in the car with good music! Thanks to him, he was great! The experience with the camels went very well. The dinner was good and hearty. The atmosphere, in the end, with the show was cool!
