This experience was our favorite thing we did on our trip! Our guides were so friendly and made the whole experience so much fun. Would highly recommend this to anyone wanting an authentic desert tour! You really can’t beat it for the price - I will talk about this day forever!

Very fun excursion to the desert. Note that the 4-wheeling ride cost extra and is not incouded in ticket price. On the 4-wheeling you will be brought to a falconer in the dunes who will let you hold the falcon but will pressure you for tips. Sand boarding and dune bashing were very fun. Camel ride is about 10 minutes and professional photo not included in ticket price.

This was one of the most enjoyable days I've ever had. Ashraf, our guide, was phenomenal every step of the way. All of the activities were so much fun, but dune bashing with Ashraf was the best part of it because he made it so much fun. There are so many listings for this type of excursion on a variety of sites, but I can't say enough good things about this one. I recommended it to 2 other people that went the next day and they also had the same experience.

This excursion was a blast. Our driver/guide was fun and a crazy dune driver in his Toyota Land Cruiser. I am an experienced desert motorcycle rider, he had me clutching the handhold in the front seat, thinking we were going to roll the vehicle. He was expert at what he did and so much fun. I’d do it again. And recommended Haile. We had a camel ride and we held a hunting falcon. Oh, and I got to drive 1000 cc razor dune buggy, following a guide that was doing crazy stuff.

We had a really nice time during this excursion in the desert with our guide Ashraf.
Best thing we’ve done in Dubaï so far.
Russell_B, Jan 2025
Our driver was very friendly and informative. We had fun riding the quad bike, dune riding, sand boarding, and camel riding. The snacks were delicious.

Great experience with skillful driver, exciting driving route in the red dune desert. We had camel 🐫 riding, and we had pictures with the falcon. The camels are lovely. We were served with a delicious traditional local snack, (I forgot its name.), and dates. The program was organized well.
Sarah_W, Dec 2024
All of it was amazing! Once in a lifetime experience, loved the sand board and the camel ride especially
Cynthia_F, Nov 2024
It was great! Tour started on time. I got picked up from my hotel and we drove to the desert. We drove through the dunes in a SUV and then stopped to sand board. If you wanted to pay extra, you could do the 4x4s or dune buggies. We then drove about 30 min to do a short camel ride, hold a falcon, and have some tea and snacks. I ended up being the only one on my tour. My guide was super professional and took great photos of me sandboarding!

The guide made it a great experience. It was just enough to decide if we would want to do it longer.
Natasha_B, Sep 2024
Great experience , Quarban made it very special for myself and my mother and was very helpful and attentive.
I would definitely go again
Tom_J, Aug 2024
The whole thing was badly organised camel ride was around a parking lot. They had like 5 minutes for the camel ride and 10 minutes for the sandboarding
Colin_B, Jun 2024
Bashir was a fantastic host and made sure we had a great time. He was very informative and was keen to answer all questions we had. Would definitely recommend.
Sabina_L, Jun 2024
We were picked up promptly at our hotel and escorted in clean, air-conditioned cars to our first stop, allowing us to have a refreshment break, do some souvenir shopping, and ride buggies across the desert. My two young boys loved it and my 7-year-old rode a child buggy on his own and had the most amazing experience. The videos and images I left with are lifetime memories.
Following that it was time for the jeep dune bashing which threw me a little (being a bit car-sick) but again 95% of our group loved it....it was done safely and we only stopped a few minutes early as my tummy wasn't enjoying it anymore. We stopped for photo opportunities and sandboarding, which again both kids took to - I was amazed at the new experiences they had in one day.
We then drove to our final stop for a short camel ride and local refreshments. The doughnuts were fantastic (and dairy-free).
The guides were friendly, informative, professional, and lovely to all members of our family group (9). This tour is for all ages and is a fun day for all.

Well organized. It's very much do this and do that and onto the next thing Which was OK.
We almost had the whole place to ourselves so can highly recommend taking a morning tour.

This review relates to Viator and not the Tour Company.
I booked this experience for a corporate event. Could not get an invoice from Viator despite multiple requests. Viator agent advised they don't provide invoices??? An invoice is a basic tool of business and I require it to expense the payment.
It's a shame as the experience was well received by the team.
Sandra_S, Feb 2024
Amazing morning in the desert!
We had an amazing time and our Guide was spectacular!
The falcon experience, the (amazing) arabic coffee, and of course the camels, Jojo and his gang were so cute and lovely!!
Dune bashing, squad bikes, each activity was fantastic.
We take with us such amazing memories, thank you! ♥️
christy_k, Jan 2024
Our guide was great. We all enjoyed and had a good time.. we did the a.m. trip, and it was terrific. Will definitely do this again, and will recommend to others as well.
Briana_B, Jan 2024
This tour was awesome and a great value for the money. Dune bashing was exhilarating, the sand boarding was fun, the camels were adorable and the ride wasn't too long or short, the falcon (shamsey?) was so sweet and so well-behaved. Loved the coffee and donut holes in the berber tents. Only thing I'd improve is the gear for the sand boarding (the straps on the older board didn't secure so it was difficult to get a full ride down the dune). Overall A+ would recommend. Wonderful weather in the early morning too!
Trevor_B, Oct 2023
Recommend this trip. Great value for money. All arrangements as advertised. Mohammed, excellent guide & driver. Quad bikes thrilling. Dune bashing exhilerating, camel ride & hospitality brilliant. A glimpse of the old Dubai.
Amit_C, Jul 2023
As expected. No major surprises and no incidents. It was very hot, so we ended the excursion a little early.
David_C, Jul 2023
Qurban our guide was first class, knowledgeable and relaxed making the whole trip a great experience.
Ivan_Y, Apr 2023
It all started with an awesome tour guide (Shabir). He was super friendly and knowledgeable. He definitely had great driving skills (a plus for driving in the dunes) and is a surprisingly good photographer ... he directed us to jump/pose for Instagram worthy photos. Camel ride, sandboarding, and riding on ATV in the desert were all fun for both adults and kids. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Dubai.
Blake_M, Apr 2023
Came out to the dunes and it was beautiful. By far the best desert/sand in Dubai. Camels were also amazing.
Rebecca_S, Mar 2023
We had a fantastic morning, from our easy hotel pickup to feeling the warm and soft sand under our feet to riding our new camel pals! All of us from age 4-40 had a blast. Definitely recommend!!
