Things to Do in United Arab Emirates

This experience exceeded our expectations by far! Everything that was promised was delivered ... and some! Truly one of the best experiences of my life . Rashid was nothing short of a perfect guide. From the moment he picked us up , he was full of energy and knowledge and made the one hour car ride seem like a minute . We stopped at a market & got traditional head scarves. He recommended NOT eating before the sand bashing which I absolutely agree with ! Once in the desert we got amazing pictures of the sunset. Rashid was extremely tech saavy & not only took all of our photos but air dropped them all to us throughout the excursion. After the sand bashing we rode camels, took pictures with the falcon and ate traditional Arabic food that was to die for! Hands down some of the best food I’ve had in my whole life .

We had a wonderful time on Ammar’s desert safari! Karim was our tour guide and did an absolutely amazing job showing us around. We started the tour with 30 mins on the quad bike in the desert (additional cost - worth it!) then we went dune bashing in the car. Karim let us know that the drivers have a special license to drive in the sand and go through annual training with the desert police so we felt very safe. We then had a chance to take pictures in the dunes and do some sand boarding which was so much fun. After sand boarding we drove to the camp grounds where we got to ride on the camels and enjoy the shows and dinner. The camel ride was a loop in a small circle but still a nice experience. The camp ground itself was awesome! They had henna tattoos, hookah, drinks and really great entertainment. Overall, my husband and I had a wonderful time. Definitely one of the best days we spent in Dubai! We can’t thank Karim enough for making our experience unforgettable :)

I’m so excited. The tour was fantastic, unforgettable. Ali our guide is the best one, champion, so kind, humble, attentive. I met the lovely family from USA, they were so kind to me. Thank you so much. I will never forget. Good luck everyone .. ❤️❤️ Best regards Givi .. :))

The whole experience is amazing, although I would recommend making sure vouchers are exchanged for tickets well in advance, to avoid the queues. On floor 125 we did have to contend with a couple of rude visitors, who didn’t seem to understand the concept of waiting their turn at one of the viewing points. Although this was unfortunate and slightly upsetting, we did not allow it to define our overall thoughts of the experience. It was our second time to the viewing floors at the Burj Khalifa (the previous visit being nine years ago) and a further visit will be high on our to-do list, if and when we return to Dubai.

Without quadrics, such a tour would not be interesting, everyone is just sitting in the car and waiting for you to ride for 30-40 minutes! I strongly advise in any case, a guide named Nur is a handsome man!

It was brilliant value for money. The bar is in a great, relaxed location, where you can watch the Dubai fountain dizplay. The food choices where very nice. Although it rained when I did this activity (which must be very rare!,) there was comfortable rooftop space to eat undercover. The staff were very friendly, The tower itself is a stunning piece of architecture. I recommend going at sunset, so you can see the views and the tower itself up close, night and day. The entrance to the attraction is within the Dubai Mall (easy to find). So you could also check out the Mall too!!

"Had 11 and 6 year old kids with me, they really enjoyed there time dune bashing and Quomar was great with photos but particularly when my daughter got covered in sand while trying tosurf the dunes (tip make sure sun lotion is applied well in advance otherwise when they fall over they look like a piece of sandpaper with it all stuck to them). "

We were picked up at the time arranged and taken out to a complex that hires dune buggies and quads. We were given our self drive buggies (included in the tour) and spent an hour following a guide through the dunes. We then got back into the land cruiser and head for the Bedouin camp to see the sunset over the desert and then enjoy dinner and show.
