Did this with my mom and we loved it. It ended up just the two of us and the guide rolled out the red carpet. Treated us very well. I enjoyed every moment except the camel ride. Didn’t care for being so high up. Would definitely recommend.
Our desert safari with the VIP BBQ dinner was absolutely incredible and one of the biggest highlights of our trip! From the moment we were picked up, everything was perfectly organized and seamless. The dune bashing was such a thrill — exciting, safe, and so much fun — and the desert views were breathtaking.
The camp setup was beautiful and welcoming, and the VIP experience was 100% worth it. Having our own comfortable seating area and being served directly at our table made the evening feel relaxed and luxurious. The BBQ dinner was delicious with plenty of variety, and the service was outstanding — we never had to wait for anything.
We also loved the live entertainment, camel ride, and the chance to take photos in the desert at sunset — truly unforgettable moments. The entire experience was the perfect mix of adventure, culture, and hospitality.
Highly recommend this to anyone visiting Dubai — and if you’re considering the VIP upgrade, do it. It takes the whole experience to another level!
Professional driver, very safe despite good thrill, sunset camel ride was beautiful, very good lunch (full luqaimat with dates syrup) and falcon show. Complete dinner at the base camp ( VIP service was perfect ) and night show ( belly dancing and fire eater) with a special Happy New Year Show. I did the experience with my youger son in january 2024 and again in december with the same satisfaction. A must at the end of a nice vacation !
The whole experience was awesome and much better than I expected. Well done. I now have great photos to share with my friends.
Great experience… Very good driver and the trip was very nice.
I really enjoy this trip. I recommend!
Excellent tour with tour guide Iqbal. He was friendly and helpful in all aspects and was a great photographer too. Definitely will recommend to friends and relatives.
From start to finish this tour was all about fun! The tour guide muhammed iqbal was friendly welcoming and made the experience exciting. I would definitely recommend this company and the guide for friends and family
Excellent driver, great experience and friendly people. The food was very delicious and the show was super entertaining.
Our guide Ashraf was excellent from start to finish, we had an amazing time and would highly recommend the trip!
He kept us updated regarding the pick up and after a 45min journey we were in the desert!
We enjoyed sand boarding, the 4x4 dune bashing and some photos, followed by a camel ride with snacks and drinks. All staff, especially Ashraf couldn’t have been more helpful with every need, providing water, taking lots of photos and just generally making the trip fun and enjoyable.
We then spent the evening in the camp with more staff helping for whatever you wanted. We enjoyed a plentiful, delicious bbq with entertainment such as a belly dancer and fire dancer. There was even henna and Shisha all included to try!
Overall a fantastic, memorable trip and thankyou to Ashraf for making it such a great experience!
An absolutely first class experience.
Our guide Shabir was exceptional he made the whole trip with his sense of humour and knowledge
Pick up was punctual and we felt very safe dune bashing which was such good fun.
The drinks and food were plentiful and lots of photos were taken by shabir and shared.
The bbq and show was fantastic. Just remember to take some Aed’s for souvenirs and to tip your private server.
Can’t recommend this enough and it’s exceptional value for money
The most fun we had in Dubai! Iqbal was amazing! A host, driver, and photographer extraordinnaire! Sand bashing was wild! Sand boarding so fun too! Book this experience! You won't be sorry you did!
I want to congratulate Mr Qurben. He was very kind, helpful and professional during the tour. We had a great time and absolutrly amazing experience. Thank you Qurben!!!
Great experience. The kids loved the quad bikes. We all loved the dune bashing, the camel rides and evening entertainment.
Amazing! What an incredible experience. We would do this again in a heartbeat! It was a great day. Thank you!
We had Subair as our driver and guide. He was very friendly. He picked us on time from our hotel. The Landcruiser for the Safari was very clean and comfortable inside. We enjoyed the joy ride. Wasn't as scary as I thought. We rode the Camel for about 15 minutes. Had coffee in the desert. Got a henna tattoo. Had dinner in the desert 🏜. The food was really good. The live entertainment was great. There was belly dancing, fire show etc. Highly recommended tour. Great quality. We had the VIP treatment. We sat right in front, and had our food served to us versus standing in line to get our food. I highly recommend this company.
Iqbal was an amazing tour guide would highly recommend!! For the entire family it is a very good once In a lifetime experience!!
We had so much fun on this trip. Our driver Noor made the whole thing entertaining! Thank you Noor! We started with the dune buggies which we loved, then onto dune bashing and sand boarding. Noor took the time to take some amazing photos of everyone. The evening entertainment and food was great. Pricy alcohol but not a major issue. We loved every second!
The driver Zaheed made the trip so memorable . He was funny, experienced and respectful. We all enjoyed the trip.
Our driver/guide, Hamid, was excellent! He took very good care of us and showed our kids a fantastic time. He pointed out interesting landmarks along the way to the desert, and really gave all of us quite a thrill during the dune bashing. Every part of the journey of the day he gave us tips, and made sure we had a wonderful experience.
The only thing that could be improved is the company has you get picked up earlier than you need to so you can sit at a convenience store for nearly an hour waiting for the dune bashing to start. They do this to try and upsell you on quad biking, and for the convenience store to repeatedly try to sell you cheap goods. I wish there was a way to say definitively we aren't interested in the upsell and just get picked up on time so we can get straight to the fun, that 1 hour was a waste of time and a mark on an otherwise excellent day.
Iqbal was the most gracious attentive driver. He was courteous, engaging and he is the best dunes driver in the world!!!! This tour exceeded my expectations. You were made to feel welcome and the camels were so calm and friendly. The food and the show were spectacular. Everyone in our group had an awesome time and we made great friends.
An unforgettable adventure !!! Experience that you should done.
Great program, funny camels, unforgettable sunset, tasty food etc.
Special thanks to our guide. Dear Muhammad, you very attentive, tactful, cheerful. You can create a comfortable atmosphere.
I and my friends had great time with this tour. My tour guide Simona from Oscar Knights Tour was excellent. He is very nice guy and very professional on driving on the sand. He gave us a great time especially for our first time in dessert. He also took us a lot great pictures in dessert. And then great buffet dinner and entertainment at night. The tour from this company is very affordable compared to same tours from other companies in Dubai . It was really worth the time and money. I would do it again next time if I go back to Dubai. I love Dubai now :) . Highly recommended this tour to everyone.
The atv was amazing the pictures and all. The dunes drive in the desert. Our driver was the best good communication and all. Every activity was amazing and worth doing. I recommend everybody to book with them
The whole trip was just amazing . Naser was just amazing and understanding guide . Definitely will recommend to book with them . !
We had an unforgettable safari experience in Dubai ! We fully enjoyed the dune bashing, camel ride, plus the amazing dinner and live shows (belly dancing, fire show, falcon show, henna tattoo, etc.). Our guide was super friendly and took amazing pictures of us in the best spots in the desert ! Definitely dont miss this trip if you are in Dubai.
This was a wonderful tour, way beyond all our expectations. Our guide Iqbal was great, a skillful driver and photographer. The tour included fantastic activities: desert safari, sandboarding, camel riding, vip 5 star dinner on the desert with amazing shows. Safety regarding covid also taken into account.
Our driver and guide was Abdullah. His local knowledge was outstanding and his driving skills were even better. The meal at the camp was excellent and the staff couldn't stop offering it!
Thanks to everyone
Unbelievable!
Rashid was the best guide possible! He made sure everything was taken care of. The amount of activities offered on this single excursion is really unbelievable! They even provided blankets because it was freezing! Everything show was amazing! Top notch!
IQBAL was our tour guide and he was awesome!!! Extremely accommodating and patient. Showed us all the best photo spots. Kept us all safe. It was definitely worth taking this tour with IQBAL. Would most definitely do it again with him.
Alles in allem ein Super Ausflug. Es hat sich absolut gelohnt!!
Quad fahren musste extra gezahlt werden, aber das war vorher klar. War aber wirklich cool.
Das Abendessen war sehr reichhaltig und man wurde am Tisch bedient. Zwischendurch traten Tänzer und Feuerkünstler auf. Alles absolut empfehlenswert!
