Our day at the desert was excellent from pick up to the drop off. All of the activities were so fun and there was no pressure to do the sandboarding as half of our group was older in age and opted out. Our guide Rashid was very friendly, kind, and a great guide. He made sure everyone in the group was OK at all times, and he took great videos and pictures. I 100% recommend!!

"We had a wonderful time on our 4-hour desert trip, thanks to our amazing tour guide Ramzan. Despite not being overly talkative, he was incredibly caring and thoughtful, ensuring that we had the best experience possible. We opted for the quad bike package and Ramzan went above and beyond to make sure that even my younger 10-year-old son was able to enjoy the ride. His extensive knowledge and experience were impressive, and he expertly navigated us through the desert, with other cars even following his lead. As a family, we found the morning 4-hour trip to be the perfect duration, as it allowed us to partake in all of the 'must-do' activities such as camel rides, quad biking, and sandboarding. While the 7-hour evening tour may have been too long for us, we highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting Dubai for the first time."

The tour was great, from them picking you up to the end of the day. I do have to say even though we had an amazing time experiencing the culture and their food it did feel a bit rushed. Many stops were made which I know that was a cause of why our walk around the camp was shorten. Overall, the staff at the camp, the driver in the Dunes were amazing! Very friendly, making sure we were all doing good. I highly recommend anyone to try out this tour! I can't wait to come back in the future with more friends and family.
