Amazing experience - We had the best dune driver! The dune bashing was amazing! And he shot a lot of awesome pictures from us. For the camp experience morning tour is to hot.

So Much Fun! - Aziz made this experience so much fun! The trip to the desert after he picked us up was great! We listened to music and chatted the entire way. Once we got to the dunes, it was full on! That experience was better than any roller coaster ride!! Such an adrenaline rush! He stopped for photos and then we went to a camel farm! We were even able to feed some of the camels and we posed for pics. After the camel farm, we went to the campsite to do some sand sledding and we rode a camel! I definitely recommend this safari! Thank you Aziz!!

Exotic trip through the desert - The most remarkable was high speed driving through the desert and admiring fantastic landscapes with yellow sand. We were lucky to see a new-born camel at the camel farm. The driver was very professional and friendly.

Great tour, absolutely recommended! - The tour was a very nice experience I was picked up at my accommodation punctually and my driver and guide NOUSHAD drove for around one hour to reach the desert area. Once arrived around the desert area first we saw from far an orix farm, which is the national animal of UAE and then we stopped at a camel farm, where I was able to take nice pictures. Then, we headed to the desert dunes where we did some dune bashing, which is entertaining and safe. Subsequently, we visited a desert camp where I could take pictures with traditional cloths, ride a camel, drive a quad and do some sand boarding. I was also offered some water and tea. The tour was really cool and provided a complete desert experience; my driver and guide NOUSHAD was very professional, but also informal and personable; Everything was according to the description of the tour provided in advance and up to my expectations.

Nice experience despite the heat. Attentive service. - Apart from the rather heavy delay in picking up at the hotel, of which however I was promptly informed, it was a great experience. Being July and being morning, it was clear that the temperatures were high and therefore the stay outdoors couldn't be long but my son (14 years old) was very happy about it. Karan was an attentive, precise and punctual driver, my heartfelt thanks for the attention he paid to the young shoot.

Not worth the money. Sketchy. - This is not a trip for those who get motion sickness. I wish there had been some sort of disclaimer. I felt sick and told the driver to slow down on the dunes, he continued and then I actually got sick. He still continued in the dunes after I vomited. I was unable to participate in the rest of the activities. We were also told it was too hot to sand board. This tour seemed sketchy, nothing official about it. A random person picks you up in an unmarked vehicle and drives you to the desert. Not worth the money at all. Also, the customer service is terrible.

Be careful if they don’t sell enough spots to fill a truck they will just cancel you last minute :( - I booked this and then they texted and called me and tried to get extra money. They said it was due to Covid and they wanted to make it a private tour rather then 6 per car. I think it was just they couldn’t find enough people to fill a vehicle. They ended up cancelling and refunding but I almost lost a precious day. Thank goodness Oscar Knight tours was able to get me in. They provided an amazing experience.
