I had an incredible morning desert experience with Liwa Adventure, and it was easily one of the highlights of my time in the UAE. We did sand bashing, camel riding, and sand boarding, and every part of the tour was organised, safe, and so much fun. A special shoutout to Bas, our tour guide — he was absolutely amazing. Friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about making sure we had the best time. He explained everything clearly, kept the vibe positive, and made the whole experience feel personalised. The views were breathtaking, the activities were adrenaline-filled, and the entire morning ran smoothly from start to finish. I couldn’t have asked for a better desert adventure. Highly recommend! 5/5.

This tour was a great experience. Bas was very knowledgable about the area and took us to a beautiful part of the desert. The dune buggy and boarding was extremely fun and seeing an authentic camp was an unforgettable experience. I would definitely recommend this tour.

I had an unforgettable experience on the sunrise desert safari with Basith! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized and full of adventure. Basith was friendly, punctual, and made sure we were comfortable the whole time. Watching the sunrise over the dunes was truly magical — such a peaceful and breathtaking moment.

Our experience with Liwa adventures was amazing. We texted them late yesterday for an early morning sunrise trip, and they replied immediately, and gave a reasonable price for a private tour. Our guide Rafi was on time, very knowledgeable, a great driver and was well prepared. He patiently helped us with pictures, and took us to wonderful spots in the dessert. We were able to see the beautiful sunrise, see some camels in the wild, snow board, and ride a camel. Would recommend Liwa adventures 10/10 even if you have only a few hours to spend in Abu Dhabi.
