The itinerary mixes comfortable riads/guesthouses in towns with a comfort bivouac (nomad-style tents) in the desert, offering basic amenities and meals.
The tour is described as easy to accessible for most fitness levels, but long drives and dune walking can be challenging—check with the operator about specific mobility needs.
