The sunrise trek was the calmest two hours of our trip. Our guide knew exactly when the light would hit the ridge, and the tea at camp afterwards was a lovely surprise.

We booked the evening safari for four adults and two children. Everything ran on time, the buffet had proper vegetarian options and the kids never stopped talking about the falconry.
PS Priya S. Mumbai, India
Private sunset safari for our anniversary. The team arranged the dune-top table, the lanterns and even a small cake without us asking twice.
