The trip from start to finish was amazing. Communication between the tour operator was exceptional. Our guide Shahim went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience. He is very knowledgable and made sure we were entertained with fun facts about dubai and the emirates during our trip. Pickup and drop-off was a breeze from our hotel. I would highly reccomend this excursion for those looking for some adventure

Experience was amazing. Was upsold on the way on certain items (we were warned) but in the end we will take them home happy. Salim was a professional driver who not only we trusted behind the wheel, but was friendly and accommodating. He also took amazing photos. He adjusted his driving pace, stopped for us and gave us water after he noticed the heat getting to us.
Pick up from the hotel was great in a landcruiser. Only us and another couple on the safari.
Enjoyed the quads then we went into the dunes and had fun the Landcruiser and got out for a bit of sand boarding - it’s hard work.
I would recommend this trip. Our driver was really good.
It was very good from start to finish our driver was very patient picking us up as we couldn’t find our pick up area. Quad biking was great 30 mins is more than enough time and the area was huge. The dune bashing was fun and not as scary as you think. Sand boarding was great but walking g back up the sand dune is very difficult so wouldn’t recommend if you have mobility issues or asthma
The quad biking was excellent, would go on the trip just for that. Camel ride was short, but extremely hot so I get it.
Car ride over the sand not for the faint hearted.
What an experience! If you are on the fence , do it. You won’t regret it. We were picked up on time, drove out to the desert, enjoyed a quick camel ride after which the dune bashing began. And it’s everything you think it is and more. To cap things off we all went down a snowboard (sandboard?) does a tall dune. Mujeeb , thank you for being a great host and showing us around and patiently answering all our questions.

10/10 experience with my guide Mujeeb, I joined the morning safari as a solo traveler.
The company checked in to confirm the pickup point the night before and I was picked up on time.
My guide Mujeeb was kind, friendly and a very professional dune bashing driver. I enjoyed the experience a lot, along with sandboarding, riding the bike and the camel.
Would definitely recommend this activity.

A brilliant morning, expertly organised. We were picked up by our guide Usman who was on time and clear on pick up instructions.
From our hotel we were driven to the venue which took 50 minutes. First stop was quad biking, we bought head scarfs that were put on by the team and had 30 minutes flying around on the sand.
From there we had a short camel ride before being taken on the sand for the dune bashing. They tell you in advance but it's worth repeating, don't eat a lot beforehand unless you want to see it again! Usman was clearly an expert and we flew all around the dunes.
We then stopped for some sand surfing which was great fun, but be careful, the sand is a hard landing area!
From there we went back briefly to base to de-sand before the drive back to Dubai.
All in all a great experience that we all loved. The price was very reasonable for all the different activities. There is a bit of additional selling but nothing too bothersome, there are clean toilet facilities and a drink vendor for coffee, juice and water.

Our Dubai sand dunes tour with Trawey Tours was fantastic, all thanks to Anwar. He made sure we were comfortable throughout and captured lots of great photos and videos. The quad bike experience was amazing with single and double ride options, plus professional-quality videos while riding. There was also a small camel ride included, and the dune bashing was absolutely thrilling. Truly excellent service—highly recommend Anwar and Trawey Tours!

Booking this was an ease, and the company communicated with me the entire time. They they sent me a tour guide named Usman from Trawny Tours and he was amazing. He was on time, took my pictures and was so nice. I definitely recommend booking.

We did ATV, Dune bashing, camel ride, and sand boarding in a morning safari. It was a great experience. Usman was amazing at dune bashing. Very well organized.
Done these tours many times before and always had an amazing time.
This time we were booked on the desert safari with Quad bikes... my advice.. dont opt for this one!
It was VERY VERY slow..and you dont really get to drive in your own. it lasted only 15 minutes (instead of the 35 mins we paid for). We had to follow a guide and we barely got moving....stop start stop start and not exciting at all. It wa so disappointing.... We stopped after 5 mins of slow driving for a photo with a guy with the falcon..and this was a real dampener.. it was an extremely hard sell for giving tips to the guy with the falcon.. it went on for 10 mins.. and totally killed the mood.
We were in the middle of the desert... not quad biking... but arguing over the tips and eating much into our drive time... he was there with his creidt card machine! ..in the middle of the desert!
Unbelievably we then slowly headed back to base and I was MORTIFIED it was over!! . What a waste! Don't do this desert safari.
Do the "on your own driving in the pen" instead. At least you can drive without going less than 5mph...and you get much better value!!!!
A few stars despite this awful desert safari experience because our driver Anwar was Amazing as usual. Patient, friendly and all round great guy! Brilliant driver dune bashing and guiding us though the sand boarding!
Amazing tour and Hamdan was such a wonderful guide! As a solo traveller, I was so happy I chose to book through this service as all things went well from start to finish. Hamdan was friendly and bonus - vehicle was clean and his music playlist was great! Highly recommended!
Best experience and excellent service
Very quick response.
They helped with all issues i had
Tour guide was very good thru the day
All three events - Quad bikes, bashing, and boarding were unique and a lot of fun. Everyone can do it. the desert is really beautiful and if your only exposure is Dubai then you should go out and see it. Mujeeb, our driver took great care of us and we always felt comfortable... even when sliding down a sand dune. Ali the photographer was able to capture all the fun for us and it was so worth having him take pictures
Usman made our Dubai desert safari genuinely unforgettable. From the moment we were picked up, he was professional, punctual, and welcoming, setting the tone for an incredible experience from start to finish.
His driving was outstanding, confident, smooth, and clearly very experienced. The dune bashing was thrilling but always felt safe and well-controlled, which made it even more enjoyable. It was obvious he knew the desert terrain extremely well and handled everything with skill and precision.
What really stood out, though, was Usman’s hospitality. He was friendly, respectful, and attentive throughout, checking in on us regularly, explaining what to expect, and making sure everyone was comfortable. He was also happy to help with photos and made the whole experience feel easy and well-organized.
If you’re booking a Dubai desert safari, I highly recommend requesting Usman. An excellent driver and an even better host he turned a great activity into an exceptional memory.
It was a well organised, and well managed experience. Shahe was a great guide, very helpful and knowledgeable
Great unforgettable experience! Anwar is a super friendly and professional driver and guide. Look no further this is the 1 you want, book...
Shan, our guide and driver for the morning was very good - the kids loved it! We did the quad biking outside (which cost extra but was worth it), camel riding, sandboarding and dune bashing.
Timely convenient hotel pickup, very experienced and friendly driver Salim who is attentive and very welcoming. Good length of activities including options for add ons, though camel riding could be longer.
We took this package as a family of 3 and couldn’t be happier! Adil was fantastic as a guide and driver. The experience was top notch. He even clicked some amazing photos for us on the dunes. All parts - dune buggy, camel ride, dune bashing- were a lot of fun! Highly recommend this tour.
We were pick on time from hotel. Our host Ajmal was great in guiding us thru all activities. We loved Desert safari, Quad bike, camel ride and dune bashing. One of the unique experience in the world. Thank you.
We had a wonderful morning full of fun especially the quads and sand dunes.
Our guide today was Anwar who provided a 1st class service, would highly recommend
Great experience for the family. The scarves they will sell you are a bit pricey but make the pictures colorful and will help keep the grit off your teef. Pleasant guides who will use your phone to take many pics and vids, easy transportation to and from. There was a falconer there which made for great pics with his falcon but be prepared to pay him about $20 US.
We had a great time in the dessert. Shan was a super guide and we had a lot of fun. Do it again when we are coming back.👍👍
Great desert tour, especially sandboarding! Shan our driver was great! Highly recommended this trip!
