“They split up our group so that more experienced riders could go fast, which was really nice for them! We had to pay an extra $80 each upon arrival for entrance fee and insurance which was a bit of a bait and switch. Lunch was great and the margaritas were strong! $1600 for 6 people total, which included pictures. You can’t take ANY pictures of the camels. I would give five stars if they were up front about price!”
