  What was the most inspirational moment of your trip?

  Camping in the Sahara Desert. We met our camel drivers away from the main tourist madness & the whole trip was magical. The children loved playing in the sand dunes & the camel drivers were warm & friendly, cooking us a delicious meal on the camp fire. Watching the sun set in the West & the full moon rise in the East casting a silvery light over the sand dunes is a memory we will never forget.

  What did you think of your group leader?

  Sonia was absolutely wonderful. She was very knowledgable about all the places we visited and was brilliant with the children. She made us feel more like guests than tourists & by the end of the week she felt like a good friend.

  Do you have any advice for potential travellers?

  Some of the days are quite long for the children & there is an itinerary to follow which means you don't have the freedom to do what you want (the kids just wanted to play in the pool on one occasion). We stayed in a different hotel every night so had to be organised with our packing - some of the hotels only have twin rooms & so we were split into 2 rooms on a couple of occasions. We packed one bag for my husband & son & one for me & my daughter so this worked ok. There wasn't always a choice of food but it was all really good, just tell your children that they must have a great sense of adventure try lots of different things (like in Indiana Jones!)

  Is there anything else you would like to add?

  We all loved this holiday, the children learnt so much about the country but also had a lot of fun, especially in the dune buggies & 4 x 4 trip!
