Anthony was Great!!!

Thomas_B, Jul 2025

It's best to go early morning or in the evening because it's very hot. Our tour guide Anthony was awesome! He was very attentive and very accommodating. His customer was by far the best we had since we have been in Dubai. The excursion was great and I would definitely recommend.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Hi Thomas, Anthony always makes sure everyone feels cared for, glad you had such a great time with him and the excursion. Hope we see you again.

Desert Adventure

Kenneth_M, May 2025

Our driver, Asif, was great. We rode ATVs for an hour, rode the camals and sand boarding if you’d like. All and all a great experience. We have many memorable pics and videos of our Dubai trip.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Hi Kenneth, Asif loves making the day fun and full of memories. Happy you enjoyed the ATVs, camels, and all the adventure. Hope we see you again.

A must do activity

Mollie_S, May 2023

Ahmad made this trip so amazing. He is great at what he does, very kind and friendly great to chat to about local life in Dubai on the way there. He took amazing photos for us- a full on photoshoot that looked like professional photos taken in the desert! The quadbiking was great fun and sand boarding. We did not want to do the camel riding as I don’t believe it is fair on them but they were understanding about this which was nice. I would definitely recommend this activity🫶🏼

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Hi Mollie, Ahmad really knows how to make a trip special. Great that you enjoyed the photos, quad biking and sandboarding. Nice that the team respected your choice too.

Great host and great experience

Good tour

Wendell_W, Apr 2023

My overall tour was great but there was a roach in the transportation..Did not like that but the overall tour was good

Expensive mistake

mrsrashminder_d, Nov 2022

Although the driver was excellent, the other car had broken down so we had to wait from 2:30 pm to about 3 pm ish - and they found another car with passengers already in it to take our party over to the venue so we arrived later ie 4 pm or slightly later - then I paid for an upgrade, too much money really, from quad bike to buggy - but we’re asked to wait for another 45 mins or more and it nearly 5 pm before our party left - I did complain that it was getting dark and visibility was so poor - but they set us off - halfway our guide stopped us and told us that as it was too dark we could not do sand boarding. As it was getting dark one buggy misjudged the dune top and got stuck and a lovely local helped get us unstuck. Then the same guide in buggies told us it was too late for the camels so we weren’t allowed to do this either - so much money taken for firstly no light dune buggy, no sand boarding and no camels - we should actually get our money back tbh - we paid for 1 hr dune buggy and I would not recommend as the wait time and. It having done more than half the activity is awful - please ask them to refund some of our funds for undone items - Viator. Such a shame as I always use Viator and I think I might not again.

Amazing experience and service

Junaid_A, Nov 2022

Amazing experience and service! Wahid, our tour guide, picked us up and was very welcoming. He did a great job in being the tour guide and took us on the quad bikes in the desert with astonishing views! This was followed by camel riding which Wahid extended for us as we were enjoying so much. I would definitely do this again and highly recommend to others to also experience.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Hi Junaid, Wahid really makes the desert special. Great that you enjoyed the quads, views, and the longer camel ride with him.

Book!

edna_m, Aug 2022

This was very fun! My boyfriend and I enjoyed the experience. We were picked up by the driver who was also our tour guide and he was amazing. Kept offering us water! The atv was fun I got the hang of it after 4 minutes lol, poor camels seemed tired but, they did amazing and sandboardinf whew I was exhausted after 10 seconds 😂. I salute the camels with the extra weight.

Promenade en quad

BURLET_N, Apr 2023

Prise en charge à l'hôtel ok. Super promenade en quad, chameau et sandboard. Si vous cherchez une balade tranquille en quad, monter quelques dunes en zone fermée pour une expérience.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Hi! Ravie que vous ayez aimé la sortie. Le quad, le chameau et le sandboard rendent l’expérience complète.

Quadfahren in der Wüste bei Sonnenuntergang, ein highlight

Sabine_K, Dec 2022

Wir hatten einen unvergesslichen Tag, unser Guide Wajahat holte uns pünktlich im Hotel ab und wir fuhren in einem klimatisierten SUV in die Wüste von Lahbab .Dort fuhren wir in ein Camp, wurden in deutscher Sprache in den Quad eingewiesen und bekamen einen Helm, und uns wurde endgeldlich ein Kopftuch angeboten (40 Dirham). Dann ging es los, mit unserem Guide in die Wüste. Jeder hatte einen eigenen sehr stabilen Quad. Die Fahrzeit betrug etwas mehr als eine Stunde. Durch die Wüste das war einfach ein tolles Erlebnis, etwas holprig, aber ein Traum. Auch Buggys fuhren hier. Die, die nur die 20 min Quadtour gebucht hatten, fuhren in einem abgegrenzten Bereich im Kreis, wir hatten volle Fahrt die Wüstendünen rauf und runter und auf geraden Strecken Wettrennen zu fahren. Der Sand war richtig dunkelrot, ein toller Anblick. Dann konnten wir noch Sandboarden und Kamel reiten. Was auch sehr viel Spaß gemacht hat. Wir haben ganz tolle Fotos gemacht, daher lohnt sich die Tour am nachmittag, man ist noch bei Sonnenuntergang in der Wüste. Nach 4 Std waren wir im Hotel zurück. Unser Guide hieß Wjahat und war so super nett, hat uns einen tollen Nahmittag geboten. Wir sagen danke ! Ein tolles Erlebnis

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Hi Sabine, Ein wunderschöner Bericht. Toll, dass Wajahat euch so sicher und freundlich durch die Wüste geführt hat und ihr ein echtes Erlebnis hattet.
