Dessert Safari WOW - From the pickup and drop-off at our location by Naeem, to the transport to the campsite and dune bashing by Ali. This was one of the highlights of our first trip to UAE. The staff were very communicative via the app, email and WhatsApp, no question went unanswered. A definite recommend by myself and family.

It was worthwhile - We had a great experience with ABC tours. It was well arrange and they even accommodated our pick up time due to our late arrival in Sharjah. The food was okay , dune bashing was fun but most memorable for the tour was the performance shows for that night. The tanoura dance , fire show and belly dance

Best experience ever! - We had an incredible experience dune bashing in Dubai, thanks to our fantastic driver, mr Asif. From start to finish, he made our adventure unforgettable. Mr Asif was not only skilled at navigating the challenging desert terrain, but his professionalism and friendliness added so much to the trip. He ensured our safety while providing an exhilarating ride, taking us up and down the dunes with expert precision. The vehicle was clean and comfortable, and mr Asif even shared interesting facts about the dessert and local culture, making the experience educational as well as fun. We highly recommend Asif for anyone looking to experience the thrill of dune bashing in Dubai. Mr Asif, thank you for an AMAZING lifetime adventure!

Driver was the best part on the sand - It is summer here and very hot. Driver was excellent. We had to just sit around for a couple of hours waiting. Camel ride hard to get on if short as t they don't have a step. Show was 1 man who just kept spinning around, then with lights. 1 bellie dancer was just ok nothing special, I have seen better. Then a guy with fire, if you haven't seen one before was ok. Meal was nothing great.

Awful - The car that collected us was very cramped for an hour journey. We upgraded our food package at extra cost but the food was only warm. There were cockroaches on the floor by the restaurant and it didn’t seem very clean. The entertainment was very poor and distasteful, we expected traditional belly dancing not a lady with a shisha pipe with fairy lights on her head. This was an expensive trip and was not worth the money.

Terrible Expriance. - The idea is to have ENJOY / FUN in a pleasant environment, with professionalism. As far as I am concerned, it was a total disaster and a scam. The SAFARI BBQ dinner was a SCAM. Although I paid you, when we got there, they had asked us for $17.00 additional for each person in our group. So we paid a total $17 x 3 = $51.00) This is to cover the food cost. Which we thought was already included in our prices which we paid you. The camel ride was a joke - Did not even last for 2 minutes. The person jeep tire had a white mark. He himself was worried, that it may get further damaged. The entire time we were in the jeep, we were worried. I am not asking for full refund. But atleast some kind of compensation.
