Beware of extra costs

Anna_D, Apr 2024

Our guide was fabulous and we really enjoyed the experience however it is cheap for a reason .... There are lots of optional extras which add up to more than twice the original cost ... Of course you don't have to do them but be aware! I totted the potential extra bits and it was over 250 AED per person

Awful scam

Mark_F, Mar 2024

Just a money making scam - trying to sell u things every few seconds - avoid it please !! It’s cheap for a reason !!

Good activity to do in Dubai.

Vishwanath_B, Mar 2024

The company connected for the tour before the time. After a few hiccups, the driver picked up the guests and there after all went fine. Overall good experience.

Ruined Experience!! Do not buy

Loretta_E, Jan 2024

This was a terrible experience and ruined my family's trip to Dubai as we were looking forward to this. The company put us with another group with group with another package without informing us. We wasted over 4 hours getting to the Quad location where they harassed us to buy, when we refused, they made us wait for the other group. It was very dark before we reached the camp and only caught the tail end of show. We did not experience the what was included in the package. The driver was very rude and the company has not responded to our complaint. It was a total scam!!

Worst experience I ever...

Cristi_M, Jan 2024

Worst experience I ever had. This is a proper tourist scam. Me and my partner were cramped in a 7 seater SUV with another 5 adults and 2 infant, it wasn't even legal to drive. We had to wait 2 hours at a quad bike track in which we were not interested. Then the desert safari lasted less than 10 minutes , but it was already night time by the time we got to the dunes so not much to experience. Then we were taken to a camp full of people, struggling to make benefit of any of the activities included. Some of the shows are really dull. The food is buffet style but we didn't dare to taste due to hygiene concerns. At the end we had to wait 45min in a queue just to be able to exit the camp.So please take care of your money and time and book a private tour. This is more than a tourist trap. Camel ride is a joke - 2 min round circle.

This is not the company for it.

Shihao_Y, Dec 2023

Please don’t waste your time here. If you are not quad biking then you won’t get any activity until 6:30. Sand bashing was not at sunset but in complete darkness. There’s no henna or sand surfing, the driver is terrible at communication. Most importantly this is not a 4 hour activity pick up was supposed to be at 2 pm but the driver was late for an hour and a half and we got dropped off at 9:30.

Unforgettable experience

Amazing experience. Great value for money. We had a really good time together. Thank you Zahid for taking extra care of us.

Perfect, Please pay...

Ali_S, Dec 2023

Perfect, Please pay attention when driving on the highway. The service was excellent. The best part was driving in the desert.

The advert was misleading - Not going to book again!

Shahena_B, Dec 2023

Positive: pick up & drop off was on time. Driver was friendly & approachable. Car was comfortable. Negative: Dune bashing was only 15 minutes long. Camel ride was only 5 minutes long. At the camp - starters was 1 cold samosa and a few pieces of cold potato pakoras with ketchup on the side. At dinner, there was limited meat & chicken BBQ. Everyone was served only 3 pieces and told to rejoin the queue if wanting more. Soft drinks came with the dinner only and the option was pepsi. Only 2 pepsi bottles allowed at a time, for my family of 6, I had to go back 3 times.

Desert Safari

mmcaunce, Dec 2023

We have done this trip previously, but this time, things did not feel too run as smoothly. Having to change cars, before going in and out of the desert. Also felt as if we had been pushed into hiring sand buggies, because the guide made us feel that we would not be dune bashing. Which we did. Also we were not offered sand boarding, even though it did say it was included in the price.

Desert safari and off roading experience

Shevonne_O, Dec 2023

It was a very magical experience, WhatsApp from a hotel enjoyed a lovely ride to the desert where we rode on quad bikes for an extra charge road on the camel ride very quickly and ate dinner in the desert watched a fire breathing show and danced and then we got back to the hotel. It was a lovely experience.

You have to

The tour was great but be...

NIGEL_C, Sep 2023

The tour was great but be aware of selling up.They will ask if you want a longer camel ride or VIP seating. Only issue with this tour was transport to the Desert. No communication re pick up and timing. The Drivers didn't seem to speak English and it seemed like we could have been taken anywhere. They need to deal with this issue as other passengers were very concerned where they were being taken!

Ripped off

Diane_T, Aug 2023

They advertised a camel ride which was 30 seconds on a camel. When we got there they sold us an upgrade. We paid extra for VIP experience otherwise we had to wait line up for food and again to get our soft drinks and were not able to eat until the show started. Show and food was average. We were also told we had to pay extra for a hotel pick up however when talking with other guests they said it was included in their price and we all paid similar prices. Wouldn’t do it again.

Good driver and good guide

RAMAN_M, Aug 2023

Good driver Mr tamoor.and good behaviour.i want recommended for this good person and i give 10 of 10 number

It’s okay, you can go for the show

Gulzira_N, May 2023

The camel ride was very short and the sand boarding as well (since the dune was quite short for that and you couldn’t slide smoothly at all). And nobody was there to accompany, but a person there helped! People were really nice. The show was amazing! And the dune bashing was nice, it was 12 minutes though. Overall nice for the money

Total rip off!

Marjorie_S, Apr 2023

The tour sounded really great but reality was much different. It was a constant attempt to sell more. The first stop was 30 minutes at a quad bike place where it cost to go for a few minutes ride. We then went for a very short 4th ride in some sand dunes before going to the adventure park The camel ride was for 1 minute, extra if you wanted a few minutes. The sand boarding was hopeless as there was no real slope. The tour guide dropped us at the camp with no information on what to do or where to go. Again there was another attempt to get more money. If we paid more we could eat now and have a proper seat. If not it was a two hour wait and sitting on the ground on a cushion. Then a long, long queue for what was advertised as a bbq but was a tiny plate of dry, greasy and totally cold fried food. There were 7 people in the group and no one ate anything. We asked to leave early as the children were hungry and the guide got angry and arranged for someone else to drive us back. This was a really disappointing tour, and not what any of the people on it was expecting!

Cool experience, but a bit disapointing

BERNARDO_R, Mar 2023

The tour itself would have been great if not for several things that occurred before and during the activity. The driver was late, so he did not do the dune surfing the way other drivers have done for us in the past. He sped along the sand to drop us off as quickly as possible and get other people because he was late. They did not take us to the center of the desert for the photo shoot that was supposed to be done and was part of the package. Due to Ramadan (this was not their fault) they skipped over the belly dancing and the event was shorter than normal. Again, the latter was not their fault, but it was disappointing all the same.
