Ok camel ride!
Shelly_J, October 2026
Riding the camels was fun especially for the kids, but food wasn’t that great and no quesadillas like it said. We didn’t feel it was worth the price! We paid $700. Plus for a family of 6 once you have to pay the $25 PP park fee. Not worth the price in our opinion. On a side note we did have a very nice staff, Kevin, working with us. He was great but probably should have stayed home with a fever and not pass his sickness to others.
Response from the operator · Cactus Tours C
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We're glad to hear that you and your family enjoyed the camel ride and that Kevin provided great service. We're sorry to hear that the food options and overall value did not meet your expectations. We also appreciate you bringing your concerns regarding our team member's health to our attention, as the well-being of both our guests and staff is very important to us. We would appreciate the opportunity to look into your concerns further.

★★★★★Viator review
VIP upgrade scam
Shayconna_M, October 2026
Karina, our guide, was absolutely amazing! She was friendly, helpful, and made the experience enjoyable. The tour itself was short but informative, and riding the camels along the beach was beautiful. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend the VIP upgrade. After booking, we received a message encouraging us to upgrade, with one of the main advertised benefits being that we could keep our phones with us and use them throughout the experience. That was a major reason we chose to pay extra. However, once there, we learned that you cannot actually use your phone while riding the camel, the guides are not required to stop and take photos for you, and during the designated camel photo encounter, their photographer is positioned in a way that makes it difficult to take your own pictures. When we raised our concerns with staff, we were told the experience was considered VIP because we received a private tour. However, all of the tour groups we observed were already very small, so our experience did not appear significantly different from the standard tours. Based on what was advertised to us when the upgrade was offered, I do not feel we received the VIP benefits we paid for. I will be disputing the VIP upgrade charge because the experience did not match what was represented when the upgrade was sold to us. One additional thing that would have been helpful to know in advance is that the tour guides are paid through tips. This was not clearly communicated beforehand, and knowing this would have allowed us to come prepared with cash to appropriately tip our guide—especially since Karina did such a wonderful job. Overall, we enjoyed the camel ride and Karina was fantastic, but I would recommend booking the regular experience and skipping the VIP upgrade. All of the reviews that complain about the same issue were right, I should have listened.
Response from the operator · Cactus Tours C
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re very happy to hear that Karina provided such a wonderful experience, and we’ll be sure to share your kind words with her. Regarding the Private Tour, our team has reviewed your case and the service provided. The Private Tour includes an exclusive experience for your party, the ability to bring and use your personal device, as well as additional benefits such as enjoying the tour at your own pace and reduced waiting times. These benefits were provided during your visit. We understand that some aspects of the experience may not have met your expectations; however, after reviewing the circumstances, the Private Tour service was provided as described. We truly appreciate your feedback and are glad that you enjoyed your camel experience and Karina’s service
