Very pleased. - I was very happy with the tour. Riding a quad bike is fun and the staff are all nice.

Amazing Time - Hotel pick-up was perfectly organized – we were informed in advance about the time and got picked up right on schedule. At the quad station, we received a short but clear safety briefing. Helmets were provided, and it was totally fine to bring your own scarf and sunglasses – no pressure to buy anything extra. Before the quad ride, we had a short camel ride (about 5 minutes), which was more than enough for the experience. Then the real adventure began: a 30-minute quad ride through the desert to a Bedouin village. At the village, we were warmly welcomed. We got to try freshly baked bread, tea, and even had the chance to smoke a shisha. It was fascinating to see how the people live, take photos, and even hold a baby goat – a really nice touch. Afterwards, we rode further to a viewpoint to watch the sunset in the desert – absolutely unforgettable. A photographer was with us the whole time, but it never felt like it was just about selling pictures – we had plenty of riding time and fun. Back at the station, we filled out a short feedback form before heading back to the hotel. Of course, there was also the chance to buy something, but it was not pushy at all. We had actually booked a German-speaking guide, but our guide Ali spoke English. Honestly, he was fantastic: very attentive, helpful, and always made sure the group stayed together. He even helped slower drivers move forward so everyone could enjoy the ride. ➡️ Overall, this was a fantastic tour we can highly recommend – lots of action, great impressions, and an amazing desert sunset!

Great. - It was awesome really. From A to Z only positive They made us discover the Bedouin The view sunset meal It was amazing that she was kind

Exciting, recommended - You start with a brief overview of what will happen, then you dress up with scarves (if you have them big, otherwise you can buy kefia for 5 euros) and sunglasses. Very small camel ride, in the sense that you climb on the camel, you do about ten meters back and forth and descend, the time of the photos. Then we go to the quads. Small explanation of the operation, quite exhaustive, then we start by dividing the group into fast and normal. You take a half-hour quad bike tour in the desert until you reach a Bedouin village, where you can see the poor houses and the way of life with goats and sheep. After a short walk you return to the main structure where you have dinner and follow a show of jugglers with fire. Then we return to the resort. Very recommended and all very nice and attentive to everyone's safety while going quad bike

Experience - The Teip as well as the activities and visit to the Bedouin village, everything was soo great, I will definitely do this again, the pickup was uncomplicated and punctual, it was really a great experience and more than just recommended.

- Very nice time and 4x4 through the desert. I recommend this experience if you’d like to see the desert in a fun and interesting way.

Everything perfect! - Fantastic experience, from the punctuality of the pickup at the resort, to the magnificent tour, to the kindness of the staff. Stra recommended, at an extremely advantageous price compared to the competition.

Good activity to do - Very good activity we were allowed sunset with a good hour of quad biking in the desert and a show and the meal was good. We had a great time We took initially on Wednesday to do the activity at 3:30 pm but we were told that it was possible either the morning or the next day .. we had to shift our program .. we would have to update your availability on the site if you no longer have room thank you

Hugely traumatized - Let start from the Camels ride, which is an obligatory part of the whole trip. Two camels per group of more than 10 people... It was organized so that two people each rode a camel 15 meters in one direction and back. And that was it. If this is how it's supposed to be, maybe it's better to remove the camels from the tour program altogether? Or change the word "ride" in the SAFARI description to "one minute to take photos." ATVs. I'll emphasize right away that this isn't my first time riding ATVs. I've ridden in different countries, with different instructors, groups, etc. There was no instruction. I don't think that showing where the brake and gas are, and doing just one lap before the tour, can be considered an instruction. There was no instruction on how far apart we should ride, or how to ride on various surfaces (e.g., rocks), and no one asked if each of us had mastered the controls, etc. – basic things that should be discussed and verified before every quad ride. Less than five minutes after the start, a situation arose when the girl who was riding third in line behind me was leaving too much distance between us. It was probably her first time riding a quad and she felt uneasy. Unfortunately, instead of asking if everything was okay with her, our "instructor"/guy leading the group simply decided to publicly yell at her twice in a very aggressive manner. At the end of our first ride, the same "leader" of our group yelled at me too for riding too close to the girl in front, completely ignoring the fact that they were constantly crashing into me from behind. I'll also remind that during the so-called "instruction," there was no mention of the distance between the quads, and I should point out that the girl in front of me barely felt me hit her once, and that was when an accident occurred in front of us.* (*an accident in which one of the tour participants fell, and no one from the staff even asked him if everything was okay) But that wasn't all. After a while, the same man decided it was worth approaching me and yelling at me again, this time connecting me to the "guide." Neither of them stopped shouting at me aggressively until my boyfriend intervened. I'd never encountered such aggressive staff before. I didn't feel safe on this trip as a tourist, much less as a woman. After all, the local Polish-speaking guide was rude and unpleasant to us for the rest of the trip. I would strongly encourage every travel agency to consider collaborating with local guides who can curb their aggressive behavior and who won't attack their clients. deeply unpleasant and traumatic experience.

Traumatized and assulted. - It was the first time in my life that I encountered such a level of incompetence, vulgarity, and downright dangerous negligence from the organizers of an optional excursion. To begin, allow me to present a few facts: I’ve participated in quad biking trips in 4 countries, including 2 organized by Itaka offices. I hold ATV (all-terrain vehicle) licenses in Europe (these are like quads, but for extreme/off-road use). Starting from the beginning: I won’t dwell too much on the transfer to the excursion site, which was supposed to take 1–1.5 hours but ended up taking 2.5 hours—a significant and painful difference for someone like me with kidney issues. Upon arrival at the so-called "Bedouin village," I saw a compound made of car parts, dry grass, cardboard, and heaps of garbage. I’m not an expert, but even in Poland, we have National Geographic, and I can safely assume this looked more like a tourist scam shack made out of junk than any kind of Bedouin village. There we met two ladies who informed us they had already been waiting for over an hour for their turn (they too had booked this "experience" through Itaka). Shortly after, a so-called “guide” approached us and announced that we would first go ride camels, and only then get on the quads. Although that wasn’t something I particularly wanted to do, I followed the “master of ceremony,” only to see two starved animals constantly surrounded by tourists. The animals were made to kneel down, two tourists at a time were placed on them, and then they were forced to walk literally 10 meters before being made to kneel again. I didn’t participate in this attraction because I couldn’t bear to see these animals being mistreated. Next, the “guide” took us to the machines—or rather, to old wrecks that should never be allowed to operate. In half of them, the ignition didn’t work, the body parts were damaged (in mine, for example, a piece of the engine cover was torn off, posing a burn risk to the passenger), and there was missing lighting (which would become significant later in this “adventure”). After what our pseudo-instructor called “training”—which consisted of showing where the gas and brake were—we did one lap (about 30 meters), which I suppose was meant to establish riding order, and then we set off. Right at the beginning, there was a problem: the first person behind the instructor simply stopped (her quad’s ignition kept failing) and got overtaken by three other riders. I ended up behind her, so I had to go slowly as she clearly had never ridden a quad before. This caused the entire group to fall behind the instructor. Instead of addressing the issue, he just drove up and shouted at the poor girl to, quote, "drive faster." I have never seen such rude treatment of customers... Later on, our instructor showed even more rudeness by scolding the girl again during a stop a few minutes later... Then we continued, only to stop again about 4 minutes later due to an accident where one quad crashed into a dune and flipped. From my position, four vehicles back, I saw several things clearly: The quad that crashed didn’t turn—it may have been due to a steering failure (several people had complained about steering problems). The vehicle behind it tried to brake and went off-road, and the third and fourth vehicles ran into the pileup, lightly hitting the ones in front (the second vehicle’s brake light didn’t work, so it was impossible to react quickly). I was the fifth and managed to brake by veering off to the side. Three staff members didn’t even check on the person involved in the crash. Instead, they ran over to inspect the quad, which is a tragic and inhumane response... After a few more minutes, the lead rider stopped and started yelling again—this time at the third person in the group (my girlfriend). Unfortunately, I didn’t have time to intervene because we started moving again quickly (yes, he stopped the whole group just to vent his anger). From what I later learned, he shouted at her for riding too close to the vehicle in front. A few minutes later, we arrived at the "Bedouin garbage dump," where the leader, our so-called guide, and another man approached my girlfriend and started yelling at her... I immediately went in their direction. When our brave "organizers" saw that, two of them vanished, leaving only the guide (the only one who knew Polish and a few English words). When I asked what his problem was, he started yelling that she was riding too close to the vehicle ahead. I pointed out that at least six other riders were doing the same, yet he had said nothing to them. He responded, “He didn’t see them, he saw her.” When I told him that it’s his job to watch all the quads and that he should either reprimand everyone or no one, he started walking toward me aggressively (clenching his fists, saying "What did you say?!")—as if he wanted to hit me. The only reason he backed off was probably because I’m not exactly small, and several other participants started walking toward us too... Nevertheless, a few minutes later he had the nerve to ask us for a $2 tip for the "service" (I assume I was supposed to pay for him yelling at my girlfriend and trying to assault me...). To top it all off, after 30 minutes (during which the organizers forced tourists into their Bedouin shopping center, where we were hounded to buy shady supplements and cosmetics), we set off on a night ride. As I mentioned, some of the vehicles had non-functioning or faulty lighting... Both rides were supposed to last 1.5–2 hours, but the total time riding quads was about 1 hour and 10 minutes... To summarize: There was no Bedouin village, the camel ride was a lie, the quad ride lasted only about an hour instead of 1.5–2 hours, and what was supposed to be a dose of positive emotions turned into a traumatic experience that left my girlfriend afraid to leave the hotel. And I’m seriously considering whether to notify the consulate about the whole incident...
