The Mega Tour was more affordable, but the buggy tour was incredibly slow. The buggies were clearly in dire need of maintenance, as they were quite worn out and had issues with broken variomatic parts. Also, the terrain was quite limited.

While you'll be driving yourself, a guide will show you the route. There are speed and driving style restrictions. The course is suitable for a relaxed pace, but if you're looking for more excitement, this might not be the ideal choice. Overall, it was a good experience.

We weren’t completely convinced that the buggy was truly a 2000cc since the team didn’t provide any visible certification. I prefer driving buggies at high speeds to fully enjoy the dunes, but this felt more like a leisurely ride. Despite that, we had a good time overall. Our driver was friendly and attentive, always there to guide us. He was punctual and responsive to what we wanted. The meal was tasty and plentiful, and the staff were very welcoming. The show was also entertaining.
