We were half asleep when the guide picked us up, but the moment the sun started coming up over the dunes...totally woke us up in the best way. Everything was smooth and just as we expected.

What a beautiful morning it was! And the sunrise over the dunes looked unreal and believe me the 4x4 drive was such a thrill without feeling unsafe Plus we did the camel ride afterwards and it was a calm peaceful for me making so unique experience. Everything went smoothly from drop off pickup and the professional stuff was so humble and friendly, I think it was worth every penny.
Amazing!

Amazing experience Our driver Shafeeeq was super skillful to drive safely and took us the best places to enjoy the speechless landscape! I highly recommend you to enjoy that experience if you ever come to Abu Dhabi Even our flight was late morning, Shafeeq picked up us at 4:30am at the hotel lobby and dropped us at the airport right one time!
Awesome experience

I would recommend this tour. Our guide Shafeeeq was great during our trip. He communicated with me when he was arriving, he helped us take pictures and was a great tour guide. Thank you Shafeeeq for a great tour.
100% worth it.

The actual sunrise was wild. The sky goes from this deep, sleepy blue to a ridiculously vibrant mix of pink, Orange, and gold, and it just washes over the dunes. It's the perfect, chill morning bookend to the fun night tours we enjoyed. Seriously, best wake up call ever.
Without any disturbance we completed our tour!

Drifting across the golden dunes of Abu Dhabi on a gentle camel ride felt like stepping into another world, and it became the highlight of our trip. The desert’s beauty was breathtaking, and the experience was both peaceful and exciting. What made it even more special was the warm hospitality and flexibility of the Visitor Destination Tour team, who went above and beyond to make sure everything was smooth and enjoyable. A big thank you for creating such a memorable experience for us!

We had the pleasure to do the sunrise desert safari earlier this week with Shakeer as our driver and guide. He was excellent throughout the whole excursion. Very nice and calm. He explained everything we wanted to know. Will take his time to take all the pictures you want. The driving through the desert is a lot of fun and a great experience. Very happy to have had this fun morning.
Great experience! For everyone recommended.
