5.00We had an amazing time on this desert safari. Our guide was absolutely fantastic — friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience so enjoyable. Pickup was on time and everything from start to finish ran so smoothly. The trip through the desert in the vintage Land Rover was a real highlight and really comfortable. It was calm and scenery was stunning, and we even saw some Arabian oryx, which was incredible. The falcon show at sunset was totally stunning, and the evening camp was so relaxed with really authentic food. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Dubai!
Great night in the desert

5.00From getting picked up from our hotel to being returned in the evening, this was a wonderful experience. Our guide Samy was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. All the guides worked really well as a team and you can see that they love their job. It was great fun to be driven through the desert conservation park in the vintage cars, dressed in our Bedouin headgear. The meal and presentations at the village were exceptional, not forgetting the fun short but sweet camel ride. Photos and videos of your experience in the desert are available to buy at an extra cost. They weren’t cheap but there really wasn’t any pressure to purchase. We had a fantastic time and would highly recommend this experience to a visitor to Dubai.
