One of the most memorable experiences, I have ever had! - I had one of the best times of my life!!! Words cannot explain the joys I felt on the trip. From picking me up to. The driver sharing culture history. I was enveloped the whole time. The camel ride through the desert, looking at the stars. Most important of all. The dinner experience itself was everything I expect it to be. The people were so welcoming and joyous! I am very thankful to have meet them all! I look forward to returning one day and doing it again!

Dubai Birthday celebration - Everything was very memorable to us. The food, ambience, customer service, music and entertainment. There was no pressure to buy anything. They kept us well informed while at the camp. The food was flavorful, fresh and pleasing to the palette.

Desert Tour Oceanair - In one word: amazing! Everything was jaw-dropping and well-organized, from the camel tour to the traditional dinner in the desert. A special mention to our guide, Saeed: kind, prepared, and keen on telling you interesting anecdotes about the city of Dubai and the desert.

Nice time in the desert! - We had a fun time at Al Mamoom Oasis. There are so many activities to do on the ground. It's all very touristy but quite fun. The food was delicious. Good service from Saeed, our driver and all the staff on the ground. We visited the horse stable and spoke with Shahid. He was very knowledgeable and told us many things about Arabic horses. My highlight was to see Jupiter, Saturn and the Moon in the night sky. The camels are funny and cute too!
