Today we enjoyed a desert safari tour with a group of 4. It was excellent and we enjoyed it very much! Our guide for the day was Babar Khan, who was very helpful and knowledgeable about the area we drove through. He helped us throughout the day whenever needed. First we went to the red dunes for some dunebashing which simply is great fun! After that we went on the quads to show off our own off road skills.. 😬 Next on the list was a stop at the desert camp where we could board from the dunes, ride a camel and enjoy a very nice bbq. All in all, a great day and a company we can definitely recommend if you are looking for a desert safari!

An amazing safari. It was the best excursion we did during our 7-day vacation in Dubai. We also chose the quad bike and VIP premium dinner, which gave us the chance to enjoy the evening show from the front row and eat excellent buffet food, and there was so much of it. The most fun part was riding the dunes in a 4x4: the driver was excellent. We had a great time, then went snowboarding on the red dunes and rode a camel (perhaps the latter was too short).

It was a very nice experience altogether, mostly thanks to our fantastic driver - Muhammad Saleem! Muhammad did a great dune bashing in our private 4x4, took us where we wanted and took care for everything! Headout could add some more info how the quad/buggy experience look like and some more options available on site and also that camel ride is super short - only 2 minutes long, so rather demo version than camel ride. In the other hand food at the bbq diner was really tasty, not worse than at the restaurants near Burj Khalifa. Ask for Muhammed Saleem and you would be satisfied!

We had an amazing desert safari experience thanks to our guide, Mohammed Shebaz. His driving skills were outstanding, and we thoroughly enjoyed the thrill of the dune bashing—it was exciting yet very safe. He was extremely friendly, professional, and made us feel comfortable throughout the journey. Shebaz was also very helpful, always checking in on us and ensuring we had a great experience. Overall, it was a memorable safari, and we highly appreciate his excellent service and hospitality.

Our Driver and guide Yasir was awesome. He is a guy to whom you can interact and he is very friendly. He is an amazing photographer who knows how to take family pics.Car was clean and safari was good. Only let down point was camp food and performances. May be as it was not my first time to camp and compared to previous camp experiences this one was not good at all.

Buggy ride for 4- costs an additional 1050 AED, rather expensive but totally worth it. Best part of the trip, followed by some dune bashing Camel ride was ok while it lasted, barely 2 minutes Night show was fun, especially the belly dancing. Upgrade to VIP section is worth it, dinner is average but edible, and serves the purpose.

    I would say i had high expectations for this tour The main things covered in my tour were - 1. ATV rides (double occupancy)- loved it would recommend 10/10 2. Sand dune bashing - loved this too, but it was very short 3. Sand-boarding - can skip, not very wow thing 4. Camp experience- very bad food, didnt like the taste, too overcrowded, bad show experience too Also had to pay for the scarf wrapped on head (so take your own), falcon pictures are also paid(can avoid)
