Traveller reviews
Staff didn't rush the nervous drivers. They let everyone get used to the buggy before speeding up. Tbh, we were happy with it.
Short, simple, and very entertaining. A good choice if you don't want a full-day tour.
Really enjoyable ride, but I wish I had brought better sunglasses because the dust gets everywhere. The staff gave a clear briefing and kept the group together, so it felt safe even when the track got bumpy. Two hours was a good length for us. It is not fancy, but it is great fun.
Great short activity before dinner. We were back at the hotel with plenty of time to shower. Tbh, we were happy with it.
The staff were relaxed but still serious about safety. We felt looked after.
We booked this as a short activity before dinner and it fit perfectly into the day. My boyfriend wanted speed, I wanted not to crash, and somehow both of us were happy. The guide slowed the group when needed and helped anyone who was struggling. We were back at the hotel with enough time to shower off the dust.
