La fauna è pazzesca(tantissimi pavoni e pappagalli), i cammelli. Il giro sul cammello è durato circa 50/60 minuti ma è stato molto divertente e bello e lo staff ti propone di fare una foto ricordo con i cammelli che è un bellissimo ricordo. Le tapas erano buonissime e la ragazza che ci ha servito, Mary,…”
