Very nice driver and tour guide, Ali. Excellent tour and well explained throughout. No belly dancing due to Ramadan but the fire dancing was awesome!

Amazing!
Sarah_S, Apr 2024
This excursion was SOOO much FUN!! The sand dune, the sand boarding, the food, shows; everything was amazing! It totally worth it! Our tour guide was Shahab and he was a lot of fun and his sand driving skills are on point. Definitely recommend this excursion. It does not disappoint!
A fun family experience
Craig_G, Apr 2024
Excellent tour guide, vehicles clean and safe. Quads were fantastic, food at camp is average hut plentiful.
Great tour with Ali

Worth every penny for a lifetime experience!
Karl_C, Apr 2024
This was an amazing experience that I will never forget. My safari guide Abdul Majeed made this activity even more phenomenal!
Thrills in the desert
Anne_W, Mar 2024
Super experience, loved the dunes and the entertainment, highly recommend. The dancer was amazing!!!
Once in a lifetime experience
nadeem_a, Feb 2024
It was an amazing experience. Shahab, our guide, was very cordial and accommodating. We did rent the quad buggies and it was awesome. Sand boarding wasn’t the thing for me. A short camel ride was fun, and the camp site was well maintained. The food was the only thing we didn’t enjoy much.
Great experience!
Patricia_G, Feb 2024
The experience was fantastic, and our guide/driver, Zafar, was exceptional with his driving skills through the dunes. Would highly recommend.
Fantastic adventure
Ferenc_F, Jan 2024
We had a very well organised safari adventure. Our guide Ebrar (Abrar?) was a very kind, polite, helpful man and professional driver. Loved every minute of the tour.
Our best tour in Dubai
Arlene_T, Jan 2024
I booked this tour and was only interested with the bbq dinner and live entertainment show. My friend that came with me was not interested at all but we both ended up very satisfied bcoz the whole tour was so much fun and adventurous. The tour is a must and should not be missed by any tourist traveling to Dubai. Our tour guide Imran was so nice and took care of us which made this tour even more memorable to us. He is a man with a heart for his customers. Thanks so much Imran! This is the best tour ever!
Very nice experience
Greg_M, Dec 2023
Everything was as described. Our driver Ibrar upscaled an already well organised tour. Tips: Many different groups from various tour operators use the same facilities. So the earlier you arrive at the base camps the shorter the waiting queues If you decide to rent quads in the desert make sure you check the starting and ending time. We booked for 30 minutes and they returned us to the base camp in 20. Fortunately our driver took care of that also. We rented a quad for 4 and it was definitely worth it as they guide you deep into the desert. Food at the camp was decent. The shows were spectacular (except the belly dancing)
A great day for a family of 4
Dong_S, Dec 2023
The tour was as described. Our guide Shahab was on time, knowledgeable and was kind and personablr. We added the optional ATV ride which was a lot of fun too. They were not pushy at all with optional things, and that was a huge plus. Bring a layer as it gets chilly at night (in December anyway). The food was plentiful, and the show was entertaining. Overall, it was a great experience and at such great price, I recommend it very much.
Safari with Zaheer
Alexandru_A, Nov 2023
The best part of our experience was our driver. Zaheer was the perfect guide, waited for us at pick-up because we were 10 minutes late, he wasn't mad or something, given us info about the town and other activities, very good and experienced driver and got us the best seats in the camp. Whatever info you need he's there to help you with it and is a very kind person. About the safari, also 10/10, very nice camp, sandboarding, fireshow an all, the food is a bit strange and with local flavors, if you're not familiar don't think you'll like it. 10/10 would recommend!

Marina_J, Nov 2023
We had a great time, definitely an unforgettable experience. Every part was very interesting and I couldn't single out what I liked the most. I definitely recommend going to Dubai Desert Safari with this company. Special praise for our guide. ​

nice
Ran_G, Sep 2023
Overall, the experience is pleasant, but at every point they demand extra payment for everything excessively, more money for a scarf, more money for an ATV, more money for a VIP ride, and on and on. In addition, the picture does not illustrate the board with which you go down in the sand, and surf only once, and the board is simple and cheap. The driver was lovely!!!!!!!

Just a complete sales pitch
Thomas_M, Aug 2023
Although we did everything as advertised on the tour, this felt like a bit of a sales pitch at times. First, we were taken to a place where we could rent ATVs (we deliberately booked a tour that didn't include ATVs as it's almost impossible to get them covered through travel insurance any more) and our guide got stroppy when we told him we were not renting and why. They then tried to push all manner of paid headscarves, drinks, photos, buffet/seating upgrades on us all the way through. This really spoilt what would have been a very good tour otherwise, had they just stuck to the advertised activities and not tried to treat us like cash cows all the way through.

The most enjoyable part of this tour is the sand dune bashing by our tour guide Mr Adnan. He is very professional.

Driver was nice, on his...
Susanne_L, Feb 2022
Driver was nice, on his phone constantly - while driving! We were taken to accept catering point in the desert where we were left to wait (and urged to send extra money) for an hour before the fun began. 4*4 drive in desert was good. Then off to a not-so-genuine deserr camp for camel ridning and dinner and shows. Camel riding was so sad with the obviously unwell camels. Show and dinner was good but with constant urges to spend more money on this and that. Not recommended, but not terrible either.

Enttäuschend - Touriabzocke
Vanessa_K, Mar 2024
Gefühlte Touriabzocke bevor es los geht. Wenn man kein Quart fahren möchte, hängt man auf einem Platz mit vielen Indern ab, die einem Getränke, Eis und Souvenirs verkaufen wollen bis hin zu Fotos mit Falken etc. Im Endeffekt mussten wir fast 60 Minuten dort sitzen, danach ging es erst los. Dune bashing war top, alles andere danach im Camp unterirdisch… einfachstes Camp Set-up, billig, schlechtes Essen, alles aus Plastik, Neonanzeige, gefühlt mehr Inder als Einheimische… Null Atmosphäre… ich war extrem enttäuscht. Wenn man es besser haben möchte, sollte man mehr Geld investieren und sich nicht auf so eine Touri-Show einlassen.
No hagan este tour.
PabloRodriguez, Mar 2022
No lo recomiendo para nada, te dicen una hora de partida, luego te la cambian, te llevan a un lugar donde estás aproximadamente 1 hora y todas las actividades son con cargo extra, luego te llevan a otro lugar donde supuestamente das un paseo en camello, el paseo no dura ni 2 minutos, después es la cena pero tienes que esperar casi 3 horas, entonces si quieres comer o tomar algo mientras tiene cargo extra , muy mala experiencia al grado que decidimos regresar antes, tiempo perdido.
Response from Host, Mar 2022
Nous sommes très choqués par votre avis. Avant la visite, nous avons décrit à chaque invité tous les détails et l'heure de départ que nous avons également mentionnés dans notre réservation. Dans votre forfait, il y avait de nombreuses activités et il n'y avait pas de frais supplémentaires pour vos activités incluses. Nous proposons de longues balades dans les dunes, des balades à dos de chameau, du sandboard et ce sont des activités extérieures. Nous n'avions rien facturé pour ces activités. Il y a une séquence de toutes les activités afin que les clients puissent profiter de chaque activité en tournée. Nous avons clairement mentionné et notre guide a informé chaque client que des rafraîchissements sont disponibles tout le temps. Pour le dîner, il est temps. Et, à l'heure du dîner, chaque invité peut prendre de la nourriture. Nous fournissons la meilleure qualité de nourriture délicieuse et savoureuse. Nous utilisons un véhicule 4x4 bien conditionné pour la visite. Tous nos chauffeurs sont des chauffeurs bien formés et expérimentés. Tous les guides touristiques ont des années d'expérience afin que tous nos invités obtiennent la meilleure qualité d'offres. Vous avez mentionné de faux commentaires dans l'examen. Nous espérons que si vous nous rendrez visite la prochaine fois, vous remarquerez que nous faisons de notre mieux pour satisfaire tous les invités. Merci pour vos commentaires.
