Perfect - Great trip. Our 2 children enjoyed every minute of it. The guides are very welcoming and they have great knowledge of the area. Great is the hotel pick up, you just have a quite breakfast and the jeep arrives. 5 stars

Fairy-like in the surrounding deserted area ... - The water stream area within Ayn Razat is quite nice and certainly a gathering place for many looking for cooler places. It almost looks fairy-like in a desert surrounded atmosphere. We walked up to a cave from which we had a better perspective of the whole area. We came across several people having lunch out in the open.
