Humbling and vast! - We were a little unsure about this tour before booking and it completely exceeded our expectations! The desert is a vast unknown, hosting so many secrets that just blow your mind! Uwe, is immensely knowledgeable of the region and related geology. Do yourself a favour and allow yourself to be seduced by what this tour has to offer. If you love fine details & hard to find natural treasures, don't miss this tour. We learnt SO much! Thanks Uwe!
