What are people saying about Dubai

Dubai Desert Safari with Dune Bashing & Camel Ride – Half Day

Yasmine_C, Feb 2026

Best Dubai layover 2026!

Our half-day camel ride, dune bashing, and sandboarding experience was absolutely amazing — the perfect activity for me, my mom and sister during our mother-daughter trip. Since this was our first time in Dubai, we didn’t know what to expect, but it exceeded everything we imagined. Our tour guide, Sham, was awesome! He had such a great attitude, was patient, kind, and made sure we were happy with every part of the experience from start to finish. He truly made the day special and memorable for us. We will definitely be coming back to Dubai, and we will personally request him again as our guide!

We also lucked out with an amazing group, which made the whole experience even more fun and memorable. Everything was well organized and exceeded our expectations.

Amazing desert tour with Ahsan - solo traveler

I went solo on this trip after my friend couldn’t make it and had the best time! Everyone was extremely friendly and my guide Ahsan was the best. He was extremely helpful and took great care of us throughout the day. This desert tour was beautiful and a must do experience. I was picked up at my hotel and we drove about 45 minutes outside the city to the desert. At first, I was scared of the ATVs but they ended up being one of my favorite parts. The desert sand was beautiful and the dune bashing was thrilling. The drivers are extremely skilled and it’s truly a unique experience. The camel ride was short but still very cool. You then drive a short way to get to the camp for the night experiences. The design of the camp is a little kitschy but the food was excellent and the performers and dancers were amazing. Overall, would definitely go and book again. Thank you, Ahsan!

4 Hour Morning/Evening Desert Safari - Camel Ride & Sand Boarding

Desert Safari w/ Camel Ride & Sand Boarding

Fantastic excursion… so worth the experience!! Short camel ride… great pics & video!!! I enjoyed the head wrapping & opted not to sand board because of knee issues.. Going down looked fun… climbing back up using own strength in hot sand was no joke! Those drivers were exceptional in driving the dunes… so worth the experience… you won’t be disappointed!!
