Ali was a very skilful driver and dune basher and made our experience very fun. A little annoyed with the street vendors at the camp, constantly trying to sell their stuff.

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!!

We were picked by our driver/guide Noor on scheduled pick up time of 8.45am. We picked up another party of 3 and headed to the desert. Noor explained different sights on the way and was very chatty & friendly.
On arrival, we got complimentary bottles of water and taken to a shop where we purchased head gear.
Then headed to do quad biking for 35mins which was a lot of fun. Once we finished that, we had a 10min camel ride which was nice.
Then went Dune bashing for 30mins or so before arriving to a scenic point to take pictures. Here we were given option to do sandboarding.
After a short stop to get the car and ourselves cleaned up, we headed back to our hotel reached there around 1.30pm.
We really enjoyed the trip and would highly recommend this company (fun tours) and our guide Noor!

The whole trip was around 3.5 hours including pickup and drop off. The camel ride was short- 5 min max and everything else was just ok. It was hot and visitors are forced/ asked to write a tour feedback right after the trip while the car is being cleaned up. Tourists are also provided the opportunity to purchase head wrap for an extraordinary pricing. You’ll be covered in sand after you exit car for photos or sand boarding, def be prepared for that. Guide was okay. Not too friendly and accommodating. Would skip in future if to do over.

I joined the tour on January 2, 2026.
I'm glad you picked me up at the hotel I specified on time.
Quat bikes are definitely recommended.
The camel ride was very short, about three minutes.
It was a shame to see so many plastic bottles and other garbage in the desert.
