Wonderful experience from start to finish! From the time we were picked up at our hotel, we were greeted with such warmth and welcoming by our affable and knowledgeable tour guide, Taj. Taj took the time to brief us on each scheduled activity, answer all our questions, and offer useful tips on how to maximize each experience. We started off with the ATV ride through the desert, then procedeed to do dune bashing, sand surfing, and camel riding, all of which was such great fun for the whole family!!

This was my favourite activity of the week. It’s a must when visiting Dubai!!! Our guide Khaled was fantastic so much so I left a key ring in the car and he dropped it into the hotel reception. He gave us great information and advice on what to do for our remaining days in Dubai.

Mr. Taj showed extreme level of professionalism. He was exactly on time while picking me up from my location. He went an extra mile to make me comfortable, he was very open for conversation and really told me everything about different places in dubai and where i can go to. He was very polite and jolly. Really loved the experience. I would definitely want Mr. Taj again next time i come to Dubai

Imran was an amazing host, he kept in pod contact to arrange our lift and kept us up to date on when he would pick us up. He was very friendly and dealt with everything for us. He was by far the best dessert driver out of all the ones we were with. Imran was very helpful and took care of us at the desert camp , took all the photos of us on our phones and made sure we were sorted and comfortable at all times. He has a good taste in music for the ride in the desert and between the different locations. Wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again if we come back to Dubai. Overall amazing experience and a great host to help us make the most of the trip, our best one of the holiday.

This excursion is truly amazing. We started off the day dunning through the desert, then sand boarding and had time to take plenty pictures, then camel riding, and finally dinner and show at a desert compound. The food was delicious. We were served BBQ chicken and lamb, with plenty side dishes and unlimited drinks. Nameer was our driver, who was funny, patient and outgoing. He made our experience super fun and enjoyable. We truly had great time, and were conveniently picked up and dropped off at our hotel. I highly recommend this excursion. It’s a great price for all that is included.

Syed was an amazing guide, very friendly and gave us lots of information about the area during the drive. We weren’t sure whether to do the quad bikes but he assured us that it would be lots of fun, which it was. We’re so glad we did it. The camel ride was fun and the sand boarding was too. All in all it was a brilliant afternoon, finished off by watching the sunset. We would highly recommend this trip.

Felt super safe from pickup. Our driver was fab and lovely to our six year old daughter. We had a great day and definitely recommended. A must for desert pics too and no extra charges once you’re there as we’ve found with other experiences. Thank you

Arif was very friendly, very punctual and brilliant with communication. He explained everything very well and made sure the group were okay throughout the trip. The tour was so much fun and was so lovely to see Dubai away from all the high buildings. Arif gave us lots of information about Dubai as we drove to the desert. The evening entertainment and BBQ was fab. Very enjoyable. The sand dunes were so much fun, definitely worth doing this tour

It was without doubt the best value for money experience we have had in Dubai and we’ve done lots. Quad biking was great, adrenaline pumping sand duning, camel riding, sand boarding, fantastic sunset picture opportunities finished off with a lovely evening in the desert watching local entertainment and eating great food. It’s a must do. The guide we had was fantastic as well really tentative and helpful.
