Ibrar_U

We had an amazing desert safari experience, and our guide Muhammad made it even more special! He was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and professional throughout the entire trip. From the exciting dune bashing to sharing interesting facts about the desert, Muhammad ensured we were comfortable and having fun. He took great photos for us and made sure every part of the experience was memorable. The desert safari camp was the perfect way to unwind after an exciting day in the dunes. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, with beautiful traditional decor that gave a real taste of local culture. The BBQ dinner was delicious, with plenty of options for everyone, and the live entertainment—especially the tanoura and belly dancing—was absolutely captivating. The staff were attentive and made sure we were comfortable throughout. A truly magical evening under the stars—highly recommended!

A disgusting and dirty place

Yasmine_B, Jan 2026

The place is disgusting, dirty, and infested with flies. The bathrooms were frighteningly filthy. We had to leave because we were afraid of getting some kind of infection, and the thought of eating there made us feel sick. On top of that, it took an hour to get there and another hour to come back

we are really sorry for the inconvenience occured ...

The pickup, sand dune...

Vivek_G, Dec 2025

The pickup, sand dune bashing and drop off experience was good, but the safari camp was very below average, food quality was horrible, i booked premium seating experience but there is nothing like that, there is a small section of reserved seating but is all first come first serve basis.

Everything was absolutely amazing. Communication with the company was excellent. I initially provided incorrect information when booking, and they helped me correct everything without any delays. Our driver, Ghaffar, arrived at the hotel on time. The car was very comfortable, and Ghaffar told us a lot of interesting information along the way. The food was delicious, the show and the camels were wonderful. Ghaffar is a very good driver, and we felt safe during the trip through the desert. Thank you for an unforgettable day. Ghaffar is absolutely brilliantl and a very kind and tactful person.

Best Experience with them

Kiran_S, Mar 2025

Today, I chose them as my tour operator for a Desert Safari. The tour guide was polite and humble, and their services were smooth and professional. Everything they mentioned in their inclusion list was accurate. The pickup was on time, and the dinner was delicious. One of my favorite moments was standing on top of the dunes. It was such a memorable trip with you all. Thank you for making my day so special! I will highly recommend you to others.❤️

A full-blown scam

Javier_A, Dec 2025

I give it a one because you can't help it. And the one is taken by the driver of the hotel pickup, who although he thought Fernando Alonso, was the only salvageable thing. The camel climb after a half-hour queue takes less than 30 seconds. He has a harder time getting up on the camel than you do on him. After the runaway I thanked God for not climbing into the Quads that lasted 5 minutes clock, after people waited more than an hour. There were milks... there I leave it. The next step was to get in the 4x4. One way 5 minutes with the Arab Bad Bunny in the background on the radio. Lap 30 seconds. In between a 10-minute stop for sandboarding. Basically one launched. Impossible to repeat. And not everybody. Prowling around the area, there's a lot of scammers taking pictures of you and selling you stuff to try to get your rooms out. Once the activities are over, they throw you to dinner. You think you're wearing the VIP because you put it in the driveway, but the con artist on duty tells you it's VIP on safari. Imagine what the normal safari will be like if this was VIP. So you sit on the floor and next to half Calcutta you have to play with them to the Hunger Games to get your food dishes. Queues among the people seemed like those of social security in Spain. Now to finish you do three shows. They last no more than 5 minutes each and the belly dance is because she is 6 months pregnant. Finally, you don’t care if you are in a Muslim country because you pray, as all the cars, vans, buses, etc. leave and see who gets there first. Anyway, a full-blown scam.

It's worth it

Katja_H, Nov 2025

The desert cruise in Dubai was an absolute highlight of our holiday! Even the pickup was punctual and professional, and our driver was incredibly friendly and experienced. Driving across the sand dunes was exciting but safe at the same time – just the right mix of adrenaline and comfort. The breathtaking scenery was particularly impressive: endless dunes, warm light and perfect photo spots.

Magnifique journée

Jeanne_d, Mar 2025

Une expérience inoubliable dans le désert de Dubaï avec le meilleur guide, Nomi Khan ! J’ai vécu une journée incroyable lors de ce safari dans le désert, et je recommande à 100 % cette expérience ! Dès le début, tout a été parfaitement organisé. Le dune bashing en Land Cruiser était un pur moment d’adrénaline – sensations fortes garanties ! Nomi Khan, notre guide, a été professionnel, attentif et très sympathique. Il a pris soin de chacun, tout en nous offrant une conduite impressionnante dans les dunes. La suite de la journée était tout aussi agréable : • Balade à dos de chameau, parfaite pour une immersion totale dans le désert. • Sandboarding, fun et accessible à tous. • Photographie au coucher du soleil, avec des vues splendides. • Tatouage au henné, un joli souvenir à ramener chez soi. Le repas était très bien, avec un large choix pour tous les goûts, et les boissons à volonté étaient un vrai plus. Un grand merci à Nomi Khan, qui a vraiment fait la différence : chaleureux, attentionné et passionné, c’est sans aucun doute le meilleur guide ! Si vous cherchez une aventure mémorable à Dubaï, n’hésitez plus, c’est une expérience à ne pas manquer !
