We booked a dessert safari trip and had a great experience with Mohammad Rizk, who drove us to the place from the city and was very friendly and accommodating person. He guided us along all the activities, made us comfortable with area and drove us back. It was super fun and worth the money!! Would recommend anyone who’s looking for a dessert safari experience.

Sham was an outstanding tour guide—personal, professional, and clearly giving 100% from start to finish. He added thoughtful personal touches and showed a genuine commitment to making every guest happy. The experience felt tailored and memorable, not just another tour. I couldn’t recommend Sham more and will absolutely be telling everyone back home to book with him.

Amazing desert safari experience! I had an unforgettable desert safari in Dubai, organized by Pazporturism and Ahmad. The jeep ride through the dunes was thrilling, safe, and very well managed. The driver was professional and friendly, making sure everyone felt comfortable. The desert views, especially at sunset, were absolutely stunning. Everything was perfectly organized and exceeded my expectations. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Dubai

Super cool

Donya_Z, Mar 2026

Great fun trip! Highly recommend if you have time to do a day trip in Dubai. Just be cautious that there’s people at the desert that will help you take your photos, but they kind of expect a high tip (this part is not included in the tour).

Best Dubai layover 2026!

Yasmine_C, Feb 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!

Sham was the best.

Mitchell_D, Feb 2026

Great value tour that you got to see another side of Dubai. Sham the driver was great he made you feel like it was your own car and was an excellent driver on the sand. Which made you feel really safe. Water was provided multiple times and overall really happy I choose to do this tour.

Shams was the best! So much fun with 2 friends

Elena_S, Jan 2026

Me and my 2 friends had a blast. Recommend booking private bashing if you’re with friends because it was so fun and funny with just us and our driver.

It was really good...

It was really good adventures experience and the guide was very friendly and knowledgeable with good English.

Unforgettable Morning Desert Safari Experience

Sameera_W, Dec 2025

The morning desert safari in Dubai was an amazing experience from start to finish. The dune bashing was thrilling and easily the highlight of the tour — full of adrenaline and excitement. I also enjoyed the quad bike ride the most, it was an absolute blast. The camel ride, falcon experience, and Arabic costume photoshooting were all great, with plenty of memorable photo opportunities. A big thank you to Sham, who helped with everything and guided us during the photoshoot — such a friendly and supportive person. The vehicle was very clean, and the Arabic music during the dune bashing created the perfect vibe throughout the ride. Overall, it was a well-organized, fun, and unforgettable morning in the desert. Highly recommended!

Great experience with a professional team

Great experience in the red dunes close to Dubai

Roxana_V, Nov 2025

EXCELLENT, free ride in the red sands very close to Dubai, camel ride, Falcon challenge - holding the bird which represents the national symbol of U.A.E. on our arms, profesional photo shoot, cold water to drink, and SHAM the nicest guide and driver ever - very polite, very careful, a good overall presence. Thank you SHAM!

Amazing

My experience with Pazpor was absolutely fantastic! They were incredibly respectful and organized in every detail. The desert trip was beautiful and relaxing, and the photography was professional, resulting in some truly amazing photos. 😍 The guide was kind, helpful, and explained everything in an engaging way. Honestly, I recommend Pazpor to anyone looking for a unique desert experience.
