Amazing adventure in the desert!
Tiffany

The tour to the desert was absolutely memorable and my little boys enjoyed our tour guide's driving skills in sand dune. Camels were very clean, sand boarding was also fun. Everything went well and covid safe, all credits go to our wonderful tour guide Aamerr Abbas, he made our adventure first class! Thank you Aamerr. Highly recommended.

I am first time in Dubai and it was one of the best experiences. Our guide named Ansari was very helpful, funny and shared a lot of important information. He help us to take many beautiful pictures and suggested good places to visit. Fantastic trip, delicious food, desert ride on a bike and car was so fun. Would definitely recommend, worth every single penny! We felt very well looked after.

The Covid care was excellent. My temperature was taken when I was getting into the car and gel was used at every transition. SAAJ was an excellent guide: knowledgeable about Dubai, friendly and caring - he loves to take a good photo! All in all great. The best bit was the dune bashing!

A great morning out
Una_B

SAAJ was an excellent guide. He turned up perfectly on time and was very Covid-aware, taking my temperature immediately and providing sanitiser throughout the the trip at each transition. He was respectful and knowledgeable, providing interesting facts and figures as we drove through Dubai. The activities were fun and SAAJ was very careful, reminding us of safety procedures throughout the trip. The dune-bashing was my favourite part of the trip. SAAJ was a brilliant driver. It was a thrill.

Saaj with the great music
Joanna_K
, Dec 2020
This was a great trip and totally worth the money. Saaj, our driver was very accommodating and an excellent driver. His taste in music made the dune bashing all the more exciting and he was excellent at taking photos (there were plenty of opportunities). The facilities were great at their camp and their camels were definitely kept well and healthy. I couldn’t have asked for more.

Fantastic experience - book up!
Vikki_H

This was an absolutely fantastic experience with a very friendly tour guide. I would definitely recommend the half day tour, a couple in the tour I was in had done the longer evening trip and said this was much better with less hanging around . The whole experience was amazing and exceeded my expectations. The sandboarding is like a mini work out climbing back up the dunes! The meal at the camp was delicious and catered for all needs and you could ask for more food or drinks at any point. This was an epic way to end my flying 2 day stop over in Dubai.

Highlight of my Dubai trip
JBerg

This was the highlight of my vacation in Dubai. The guide Kassim gladly spread his great knowledge about Dubai and the desserts. The schedule of the tour is well thought through, you have enough time for all the activitities. When I visit Dubai next time I hope that Kassim will be able to give a sunset tour.

We got picked up at the hotel and had a great driver, who really knew how to dune bash. We stopped for photos in the dunes and did sandboarding. Then went to camp, rode camels for a bit and had a delicious brunch. Strongly recommended.
