Dessert safari dubai - Had a great time at the safari. Zafar was our driver and we opted for a private car. It was a brilliant day. Zafar was excellent from start to finish and a great personality.

Exciting dunebashing, great guide Zafar and good food. - We enjoyed the tour, with the great guide Zafar. Amazing dunebashing in the desert in Sharjah, and entertainment in the desert in Dubai. The cameldriving, dune surfing and the shows were good enough, and the bbq was good with nice local specialties. When the car was stuck in the desert, Zafar solved it quickly. We had a great time and would highly recommand this tour.

Sunset dune bashing - Said was very kind despite my tardiness, he was always helpful and made us feel safe. The food at the camp site was way too much, but I’m happy if the remaining untouched food goes to the community. Thanks for the experience!

Fun filled day out! - Our driver Arif was fantastic so fun, felt so safe but thrilling as we drove through the desert! Falcon experience was magic. And t Did the camel walk too just after sunset. Be aware of scarf and dress up payments, they're not compulsory so say no if you don't want, but I liked the scarf and having it a souvenir for future ! Fire dancers and shows too.

Decent experience but be ready to spend beyond the tour cost - Great flexibility offered (e.g., was able to book it 30 mins before departure time VS in US you need to do at least few hours ago) However overall experience at site was pretty average. The BBQ dinner is very much rationed at 3 BBQ per person, same thing with starters. And expect everything at extra charge - fried corn, seating at decent spot - and exorbitant charge really. A beer costed 50 Aed, that’s pricier than US. I anticipate other tours are same. I rated 3 vs 4 as I had done dune bashing and others before, and the experience wasn’t great even when we exclude all the extra charges above. The camel ride is literally 10 meters or camel walk and that’s it. Dune bashing happens for 15-20 mins Rest all time is sitting at a place for shows and eating, and except the very basic, everything comes for an extra charge
