This is my last tag along trip in Liwa – just a week or so after I will be selling my car and preparing to head back to the UK. We will have two drives, and I will be assisted by Karim from Rub Alkhali Desert Tourism.
Please note we have recced the route today(27 mar); although not advanced, due to all the recent sandstorms it has some tricky bits here and there and we do not recommend this trip for absolute beginners. Ideally you will have completed at least one trip with us over the last three seasons.
