Great experience! I traveled as a solo female and although I’ve done this tour before, our guide was so friendly and hospitable from the moment they picked me up in the car. Felt like family by the end of the night - Highly recommend.

Perfect tour guide—Fahad.

Bahjo_J, Dec 2023

We had Fahad as our tour guide for the duration of the day. He was amazing. The standard for tour guides. He could not have been more in control and he could not have done his job better. He made our day just as much as the tour itself.

Great trip.

shamel_s, Dec 2023

We went as a group of 4, once we arrived we had a great and fun 10 mins of dunes bashing, after which they drop you at the camp were we met Mr. Fahad our host who showed us our table, gave us all information we needed and gave us great tips and notes to make the best out of our time at the camp, the food was good but the line was way to lomg so be ready for that, the shows were fun, but i advise you to leave a little early to avoid the traffic. All in all it was an amazing experience, from great friendly team. One last advise is to pay the extra 50 AED per person and sit in the VIP area as it is less congested. Special thanks to our amazing host Mr. Fahad.

Awesome experience, must try!

Gayathri_C, Nov 2023

Truly an amazing experience. Our guide Mr Fahad had great communication with us and picked us up on time and tried to give us an authentic and the most enjoyable experience at every stage. He made us feel very welcome and safe during our first ever visit to Dubai as two female travellers. The desert tour itself was also good, a great intro to the Dubai desert, the food was very tasty and fresh.

Really appreciate Desert Safari Dubai

Muhmmad_A, Oct 2023

The Desert Safari Dubai was a good experience. I was solo they areat us like a family. Picket me at proper time. The driver followed another LandCruisers up into the dunes, sliding and drifting up and down them at a fair pace with Arab dance tunes on at full volume! A good laugh and there Andre nice views out over the desert.. Would have been great to have a wee shot though to be honest, as after a while of doing that he was certainly having more fun than me!

Fun experience that’s worth doing

Olivia_C, Jun 2023

So much better than I’d thought it would be - quality 4x4 car, driven safely, short but sweet camel ride, surprisingly good food, entertaining display after dinner. Don’t bother doing the “luxury” package (pointless) and give the money to the driver as a tip instead.

Crazy experience

Mandy_L, Jun 2023

Crazy experience, but loved it. Far more vehicles than we were expecting and didn't enjoy middle bit where there were sellers etc. Very skilled desert driver. Camp was great. Good food and entertainment. 1 hour's drive each way at high speed, but in good company with lots of laughs.

Not with this company …

Alena_K, Apr 2023

Compare to other previous same excursions- this one was soo poor. Even kids says that. No sands board. 15 min sands drive, 5 min for photos- money for wind. Not recommend Не советую именно с этой компанией эту экскурсию. По сравнению с такой же 2 года назад это выброшенные деньги и разочарование

Response from Host, May 2023

Hi Thanks for the feedback will respond you soon

Worst experience will not suggest viator to anyone.

pratik, Oct 2021

Worst day of our trip. We booked for 2 people and driver took 5 people and on returning 6 people. Vehicle got stuck on return journey we asked him to send us home on some other vehicle but he kept us waiting in For 2 hour. driver was soo rude never booking anything from viator again.

Response from Host, Nov 2021

Hi I hope you are doing well. Really sorry to hear you. I inquire from my staff that what was the problem occur at that day. So transport supervisor give me report that our vehicle create on the spot that's why they are late. No problem we welcome you again to come with us and will provide you a best service.

Il y a beaucoup de perte...

BarbaraGinette_M, Mar 2022

Il y a beaucoup de perte de temps dû à un manque de véhicules...Guides stressés et arrivé au souper/show juste à temps...donc 2 minutes de tour en châmeau.

Excursión al desierto - MALA

Alfredo_S, Mar 2022

El viaje de ida al sitio de encuentro lo hicimos a los MUY DESACONSEJABLES 140 Km/h promedio. Nos llevó 1:30 hs de travesía a esa velocidad llegar al lugar en cuestión, donde nos ofrecieron PAGAR APARTE por alquilar un quad o "esperar sentados" 90 minutos hasta que se terminara este turno de actividad. Si bien la espera fue menor (unos 50 minutos), a continuación nos llevaron a "cabalgar las dunas", en EL MISMO vehículo en que nos desplazamos desde Dubai. Lo siguiente fue otro desplazamiento (45 minutos) para llegar al campamento: allí el "breve paseo en camello": un "rondo" de tres camellos, con dos pax por animal, girando en un círculo de unos 15/20 metros de diámetro: una vuelta, fotos (con cargo, prohibido usar otros medios, por ejemplo un dron). Hasta este punto NO SE NOS OFRECIÓ NI SIQUIERA UN TRAGO DE AGUA. Siguió espectáculo MALO, comida (aceptable, aunque sólo hubiera agua a temperatura ambiente para beber). De allí vuelta a Dubai, en otro transporte. En resumen: 6 horas de excursión con casi cuatro horas de viajes. Una MUY MALA experiencia

Response from Host, Mar 2022

Hi Hope you are doing well. I translate to English your feedback which mentions that vehicle speed was 140 km/ hour but the thing is that you are talking about Dubai. if our driver speed was 140 km/ hour on the road too many radars so how is it possible that the driver drive at 140 speeds and didn't get the fine. Anyhow it's ok will investigate further.
