Description
Come and join us at our desert Camp Khuri, a brand new resort in the middle of the desert far from the noise of the city. Come here and enjoy your time with us we will be more than happy to welcome you in our big family. My name is Sunny, I have been working long time with the camel safari then I decided to start up my own business. The resort opened in September 2018,we have 10 tents with all the facilities, we organise camel safari for sunset or one full night in the desert, jeep safari for sunrise and in the nights we often have concerts with local musican desert music.
We live here as a family, the place is quiet we enjoy nature and talking together, one of the best things to do here is sleeping under the stars at night we can provide bed and blankets, will be unforgettable.
