We will provide you with the spare radio for the first drive, then you need your own radio from second drive onward.

For deflator and gauge you can pick from any tire shop or fuel station. If you can't then deflate with key (time consuming) and come 15 minutes early, please.

Gaurav / Vanessa

thank you for a super first drive.  Enjoyed the same and was fun and well organized.   

 

[Adith Lobo]

Dear Gaurav and Vanessa,

Thanks a lot for that life changing experience. Being an offroad enthusiast in India it has taken me 9 years in the UAE to have had this experience in the desert.

I am in awe of your high level of professionalism, expertise and skill in the way this drive was organised for Newbies.

I enjoyed getting stuck and your tactful guidance in getting me out. 

 

Kudos to Vanessa and Gaurav 

 

Hope to keep meeting you more often at the drives

[Muhammed Shabreen]

Hey @Gaurav & @vanessa, 

Thanks for your guidance and assistance. Very well structured drive & excellent professionalism.

Although the last stuck drained me out, it was a good learning experience. 

Hopping to meet you frequently. 

Cheers,
