I’ve done this tour several times but I am finally writing a review today because of how amazing my experience was last night. We were doing the tour to celebrate my grandmas 90th birthday, and our tour guide Maher treated her like an absolute queen throughout. He really went above and beyond. Examples: always driving us closest to the activities so she had to do the least amount of walking, holding her hand as she was walking so she wouldn’t fall, preparing a surprise birthday cake for her, learning some Japanese words to be able to communicate with her, and so much more! I was truly so impressed and am really grateful that we got assigned Maher! I hope the company reads this review and shows Maher some appreciation!

Start to finish, this was an excellent experience. Fun, informative and a terrific guide. We very much liked the emphasis on conservation. Also - the company is very good about communicating with respect to pick up and drop off information.

Best Desert Safari tour in DUBAI!! This is a MUST DO if you are in Dubai! Highly recommend if you are looking for the NOT so touristy thing to do in Dubai. A wonderful alternative to the large, small, crowed SUV “dune bashing” tours. This was one of the best tours my husband and I did while visiting Dubai. From beginning to end, it was amazing. Ahmet was our driver and host for the day, and he was prompt with our hotel pickup, very engaging, and incredibly informative during the drive out to the preserve. Upon our arrival, Heritage gave us reusable water bottles and head scarfs. It was a bit windy that afternoon, so the scarfs came in handy for the Rover ride. I would highly recommend paying the extra for a private drive. It was nice to have it all to ourselves and at the end of the night you are not committed to staying until your entire party is ready to leave. We saw many native animals in their natural habitat and the sunset on the dunes was AMAZING. Following the Rover tour, we were greeted and educated by a Falconer and his bird. Heritage supplies hot cinnamon tea and date juice. To finish off our evening we were escorted to the Bedouin camp where they had prepared a FABULOUS local dinner. We even tried camel meat and milk. The camp had camel rides, and henna for anyone interested in partaking. The entertainment was honestly nothing spectacular, but it was just enough for the evening. Ahmet our host went over and above to make our night special. He knew we were celebrating our anniversary and he brought out a delicious chocolate cake after dinner to commemorate. Many stayed for the hookahs and stargazing, but we were exhausted and ready to go as we knew it was about an hour’s drive back to the hotel. All in all, it was a great experience and one we would highly recommend!

Every phase of the desert safari was carefully planned and perfectly organized down to the smallest detail. Bashar guided us throughout the entire experience with clear, professional explanations and shared many interesting facts and curiosities that made the tour even more engaging and enjoyable. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and always attentive to our needs. The dinner was delicious, with a great variety of food, and the camp experience was full of fun and well-organized activities that truly immersed us in the desert atmosphere. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Dubai: this is an experience not to be missed! 🌅🐪
