Mr. Ejaz the safari driver was very professional and friendly. The safari trip exceeded all our expectations. The dune bashing was a thrilling ride that had our hearts racing, and the quad biking adventure provided an adrenaline rush like no other. The live performances were entertaining. This was an unforgettable experience that we would recommend to anyone visiting Dubai! There was a big que on camel riding and on Henna tattoos.

Desert Fun

Mary_C, Nov 2024

Our driver Amjad made the Dune bashing so much fun ! The BBQ and show was incredible. Camel ride and AtV if wanting to do extra.

Overall night v good

The drive in the desert...

jan_g, May 2023

The drive in the desert was a good experience. Although we were encouraged to upgrade to VIP experience for the BBQ I don't feel it was worth the extra money. Dancing was good to see. Was disappointed re the camel experience it was literally about 50m and no paid experience was offered. People very friendly and always happy which we really appreciated. Maybe we should have paid more for the total safari. Overall we enjoyed it.

Response from Host, May 2023

Thank you for your review, I am grateful you enjoyed our service and had a good experience. we do have extended camel ride in morning safari, its a different package to book, I will be happy to serve it to you next time. thank you for your review again, it helps us improve.

The safari driver Amjad was good. The trip surpassed all expectations with its heart-pounding dune bashing and adrenaline-fueled quad biking. The live shows kept us entertained throughout, making it a memorable experience we'd recommend to anyone visiting Dubai.

Excellent and Highly Recommended

Raffay_A, Apr 2023

The Desert safari trip we took was a truly memorable adventure! It was one of the best experiences in Dubai. Professional and friendly staff. I highly recommend everyone to experience desert safari on their visit to Dubai.

It was an amazing safari...

Nauman_Y, Apr 2023

It was an amazing safari tour. Dune bashing was fantastic. The food was good and it is genuinely value for money and time.

A memorable day with OasisPlam, definitely will come back again :)

Asim_I, Apr 2023

It was my 2nd desert safari experience. Dune bashing was superb, and the Campsite ambiance was good. The food was very tasty, but only limited items for vegetarians at BBQ. A truly remarkable experience that deserves a five-star rating! The driver Shoukat was very helpful.

Thrilling

Expérience low cost

alinea_f, Jan 2025

C’est une expérience low cost. Arrêt imposé pour fair consommer le client. Boutique de foulard. Aucun rapport entre la photo de présentation des dunes sur le site et le paysage réel. Le site ressemble à une déchèterie à ciel ouvert. L’hygiène sur le lieu du repas est également à revoir.
