⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Amazing Desert Safari Experience! Our private desert safari was truly mind-blowing! Everything was perfectly organized — from the smooth pickup to the thrilling dune bashing and the fantastic evening performances. The food was delicious and well-prepared, adding to the overall great experience. A special mention to our guide Soni, who was extremely kind, professional, and experienced. He arrived 10 minutes before the scheduled time and made the entire journey comfortable and enjoyable with no delays at all. Highly recommend this experience — it was one of the best highlights of our Dubai trip! 🌅🐪✨

The trip was excellent! We were lucky to get a very professional driver Ranjit, who gave us unforgetable emotions by getting us through the dunes of the red desert! Also we stopped just before sunset for stoning photos and some activities in the sand. Kids still talking about it!) 100% recommended for the families with children!

We had an amazing experient with Ranjith. He communicated ahead of time on the schedule. Took us to the buggy rides and make the whole process easy. The dune bashing was the best, amazing ride - he took photos and we also did some sand sleding down a dune. He was also very accommodative on our needs and knew when to slow down. Our kids loved it and thank you for the great experience

    I recently experienced the Desert Safari in Dubai, and it was truly a mix of highs and lows. The absolute highlight of the trip was our driver, Yasir Bukhari. His expert dune-bashing skills, friendly nature, and professionalism made the adventure unforgettable. Riding across the golden sand dunes with Yasir at the wheel was thrilling and safe at the same time. Unfortunately, the desert camp was a let-down. The facilities were not up to the mark, and the overall ambience lacked the charm one would expect from a desert safari experience. Without Yasir Bukhari’s incredible driving and engaging approach, the trip could have been disappointing. Overall, I would rate the safari experience as wonderful only because of Yasir Bukhari. He turned what could have been an underwhelming trip into a memorable adventure.
