Here's another one from Russel, this one looks like fun

The Desert By Night
4 hour jeep tour

'Those are the sacred hours of desert life, when man is alone with the wilderness and Him who made it.'
'M.J. Rendall 1911'

Experience the magic of an Arabian night under the star spangled desert skies. Explore the awesome mountains of Eilat by 4X4 by night. It is well known that the desert comes to life at night and on this special 4 hour tour we search with projectors for local wildlife such as wolves, hyenas, foxes and gazelles - all can be found in the desert surrounding Eilat.
The desert is particularly renowned for its exceptionally starry skies, using an astronomic telescope your guide will point out the various constellations found amongst the millions of stars visible, the craters of the moon, the moons of Jupiter and the rings of Saturn. We stop en route to enjoy sweet Bedouin tea and Pitta bred prepared on a small campfire, some Bedouins' legends and plenty of magical atmosphere. We take a short walk to a small hidden canyon with the light of the stars only and driving along the valley of the statues in completely open jeeps.
Cost $45 per person (Daily in the summer)
For an extra special evening for groups, we combine this night tour with an outdoor evening meal and choice of entertainment. A unique and magical experience never to be forgotten.
