We definitely recommend a morning desert experience. The scenery is breathtaking. We recommend the dune bashing with a caveat - it's not for the faint at heart and if you get sick easy, I wouldn't recommend. We would have appreciated a warning about how intense it was but we did like it. Our guide was great. I wouldn't do camel riding again. They are very ornery animals. My wife got tossed from hers and it was just an awkward experience. Overall, it's simply the trip to the desert in the morning that was great. Would do again without the extras.

Fantastic morning really well looked after by our guide. Preferred this option to going with a large group of other people. Would highly recommend.

Wonderful experience! A "must do" if you go to Abu Dhabi

Estelle_G, Dec 2021

A great experience! The desert safari is a unique experience so is skiing on the sand dunes . Camel riding was far too short. Pity.

Great trip with great guide Salam

Our trip was Great! Salam, our guide, did an outstanding job and adapted the trip to our demands as we also had a baby aged 22 months with us. He showed us the best points for photos and did the family Photoshooting for us! All thumbs up!!
