Our driver, Imran, made it great! - The tour is good, a taste of everything in a day. Private tour is much better than the group. The best part was our driver, Imran! Such a humble and nice person, soo attentive and sensitive to individual needs, great and safe driver, he knew all the tricks how to cut corners and bring the best of experience to us. Chose Imran at all cost!

Worths it. - We had a great experience with Imrad as our driver, he was always kind and patient and we felt secured thanks to him with our young kids (5 and 9) which is the most important. It deserves the price. We also had henne tatoo for free ah the camp.

Average Dubai Desert Safari - A fine experience for first timers (but not organized) - Feb 11, 2023 ☆☆ - Hotel pick-up/drop-off ☆☆☆ - Quad Biking experience ☆☆☆ - Desert Camp Center Stage & Seating Area ☆ - Snacks/Buffet Dinner ☆ - Washroom Cleanliness ☆☆☆☆ - Live Entertainment ☆☆ - Camp Activities ☆☆ - Dune Bashing ☆☆ - Camel Riding Hotel Pick-up & Drop-off If you're less than 5 people - It's better not to choose the Option with Hotel Pick-up/Drop-off as you will be sharing the car with other guests in which somehow will extend and added your travel time by picking up or dropping the other guests to their hotel (in our case, we travelled extra 1.5 hours since they prioritized the other guests from the palm island hotel and we're from hotel in Al Jadaf area. They picked us up first and travelled to the palm and waited the guests to come out of their hotel for almost 15-30mins, then after the desert safari they drop them first then us (despite of requesting them to drop us first since we still need to travel to Abu Dhabi in the evening). If we only knew, we could have chosen the option for centralized pick-up & drop-off which is near to our hotel, we would've not missed the last bus trip to Abu Dhabi ***This applies to all Dubai Desert Safari packages, if you're 5-7 people its better to choose the option with hotel pick-up & drop-off as you will fill the car's full seating capacity. Quad BIking & Dune Bashing It has now a centralized quad biking area prior proceeding to the dune bashing and desert camp. Agencies should have informed their guests in advance if they would like to experience quad biking in this area, if guests will avail this, they should pick-up the guests earlier so that it will not consume much time and misses the sunset later during dune bashing. They have done the dune bashing only when transferring to desert camp, just for the sake of dune bashing offer in the package, no more photo stop in the middle of the dessert. as no more time to do so as it wass already sunset. Desert Camp Activities /Snacks & Buffet When we reached to Desert Camp, we went directly to the line for free camel ride and it's dark already. We were not able to avail the snacks & unlimted tea/coffee as it was closed already inside the camp, no more activities mentioned in their offer such as traditional arabic dress, etc. Dinner buffet were served in 3 long tables with 2 lines each table. As there were lots of guests, there was only 1 person who did the refilling of the food as most of the guests were not able to get each food on the table, they lack of people here refilling the food. Live Entertainment The live entertainment was good especially the fire show. Washroom Cleanliness They have limited cubicle/toilets and it's not well maintained/cleaned. I just hope that they can improve on the above mentioned comments and always bear in their mind that they should treat all their guests equally and satisfactorily especially for all first timer tourists. First impression lasts... My advise is to research and check further reviews before proceeding. Thank you and Have a nice day.

Could have been better - I booked the safari with my family of 4. At the time of booking I wasn't told that there will be another family with us. So 4 more people were added in the car (old Armada). Then we were all shifted to a land cruiser at safari point. The LC driver was very good and experience with dune bashing. He stopped in the desert for few min so we can take pics. We were then moved to another car who took us to the camp alongside same family of 4; so 8 people with driver. At the camp, another incorrect promise; camel ride. In the booking message they told us camel ride is included but there was one camel only at the side on which you can take pics but it won't take you for a ride. They called it "short ride". If you want a real ride, then there are other camels charging good money. There were shows at the camp. Cold drinks diluted with lots of water were free. Tea was free with self service. The dinner included simple rice and few popular items like pasta noodles. Bbq was one piece per Head and finished before anyone would notice. The shows were nice including belly dances and tanura dance. Finally we were sold to another car who added 4 more unrelated people to the car and dropped us back to hotel. Overall it could have been a better experience if they told us everything correctly and I may have then booked a private one for more money.

Hello this is completely... - Hello this is completely unacceptable.. we would like a full refund !! We have sat under the sun for three hours and my parents could not sit on the floor … the line for the food was more than 1 hr and millions of people all the tourists were very disgusted with this situation.. I’m completely embarrassed with my family that I brought to Dubai so excitedly.. you should all be very ashamed of what happened here tonight .. we did not eat or drink anything and we left without any show .. I almost got runover a few times because drivers are crazy speeding while people are walking in the desert .. super dark WOW!! We are trying to leave with our driver and the other tourists… and everyone is parked everywhere and we completely blocked . This is so dangerous..all hotels, the president , everyone needs to know about this . STAY AWAY horrible and Dangerous ..we were picked up at 3pm we have been stuck in a car .. trying to escape this place . We were dropped off now at 10:15pm. NO REFUND HS BEEN GIVEN YET !! Giving me a hard time this is Terrible, dangerous and scary !!!!RUN from this company !!

Very disappointing and deceiving - Booked and paid for vip service however was a let down. Picked up at 3pm however only arrived at 630Pm due to a lot of waiting for other people. Arrived late, missed the camel ride and henna service.not to mention missing so many opportunities in taking photos. After that long waiting again to return. This is very upsetting and a waste of precious time. First time and the last ! Fyi, booked this tour for my in laws and it’s really disappointing for their first time and imagine old people waiting the whole time
