Family desert safari - Today 27 February 2026. I took my parents on their first time ever desert safari and i used this company (Dream Journey). The guide Mr Qamar was absolutely amazing, well dressed and well presented, he was really amazing with me and my family, a very humble person. We entered the red dunes and immediately i could pick up on his skill level the way he approaches the dunes and how he handles the car from vehicle control to chosing the correct gear, Qamar knows his stuff. My mother was so nervous as it was her first time, but after we did the photo stop she was calm and enjoyed it even more. What sets Qamar apart from other companies and other guides is the fact that even though he was fasting he continued to check on me and my family and ensure that we always have enough water to drink. I will most certainly make use of this company again and the vehicle was in great condition and very clean. The service was good. The BBQ dinner was just as good and the camp area was ok too. The only downside i had was at the camp area there are guys there trying to sell you thing and its multiple people selling the same things so 4 different people would come and ask you if you want to buy the same thing, 4 different people would come and ask if you want to smoke sisha its was very annoying but eventually after saying no thanks about 9 times only then it became very enjoyable dinner experience, and then there was the insanely long drive to the camp, almost 1 hour drive. But overall it was an amazing experience. Please pass our thanks to Qamar for such great service.

. - I had a really good experience overall, and I would like to express my sincere thanks to Mr. Sajid, who served as our driver and guide throughout the journey. He was extremely professional, polite, and knowledgeable about the routes and local attractions. His friendly attitude, safe driving, and helpful nature made our trip much smoother and more enjoyable. We truly appreciated his punctuality and the way he went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. It was a pleasure traveling under his guidance, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and courteous driver.

Worthwhile experience - We did the quad bike experience into dinner - was an awesome experience and our driver awais was awesome. Brought good energy, very insightful and made sure we got to do everything we wanted on the tour. People we went with said it was the best bang for buck tour they’ve done because they done a few of the same tours

Desert Tour Good Bye - Desert tour with guide Awais! It was so fun :) It was much more fun than I expected. Especially the quad bike was good to add. When will I try to wreck the desert like this again? Crack! Awais' swinging was also so fun. Eh, it's really good driving. That's why malaria is necessary. I had a pill, but I was a little bit... It wasn't too hard to buy the whole tour, so I enjoy the tour. If you come to Dubai, please try it once! Awais~ Thank you for leaving a lot of photos~! Thanks to creating pleasant memories!
