I just had to share about the incredible experience I had on the desert safari, all thanks to our amazing guide, Mohsin Pathan! Seriously, this guy knew his stuff. He was like a walking encyclopedia, telling us all about the places we visited and the history behind them. We learned so much! But it wasn't just about the facts; he really went out of his way to make sure we were having a blast. He even hooked us up with discounts for different activities along the way, which was such a nice surprise. He didn't just guide us, he was also our personal photographer! I mean, who does that? He snapped some epic shots of us with the desert as our backdrop. But what really stood out to me was how much he cared about our safety and comfort. He was always checking in to make sure we were feeling good and having a great time. It made the whole experience feel so special and memorable. If you're thinking about going on a desert safari, I can't recommend our guide enough. He truly made the trip unforgettable. Huge thanks to him for an awesome adventure!

Krzysztof_G, Feb 2024

We had a great time, highly recommended to everyone 👍 The driver was friendly and very skilled, camel rider was a good fun for my daughter. The food at the party was good, just it good a bit chill later in the evening, so I can recommend in Feb to take some long sleeve clothes off some sort 😃

Amazing Desert tour 🌵🐫🐪

karina_b, Apr 2023

This was a great tour but our guide Im Archanadio made it amazing. We’re from the US & we were left in shock when on this tour. Our guide was so nice & did more than the bare minimum to accommodate us. He gave us an endless supply of water, snacks.. even ice cream! While driving he’d give us the history of buildings & explained the arabic culture. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. 5/5 ⭐️

I liked really much this 6 hour trip to the dunes. We started from our hotel with a pick up at 2:30 p.m. Clean and comfortable toyota premium land cruiser, nice leader - Noor. Loved the dunes bashing and the evening show and dinner at the bedouins campsite. We were dropped off at the hotel about 9 p.m. Nice way to spend half day in Dubai. Good value for money.
