Hussain was a great and attentive driver and made sure the entire experience was seamless. The dune buggy ride was longer than nearly all other tours and was well worth the money. There are plenty of stops for pictures and videos in the desert!

Want to experience the desert quickly? Except for getting up early, it's a Korean custom fast-paced attribute. Desert Move-Sandboard Ride-Sunrise and Photographer-Cameron! Hashim guide is so friendly but the photos are real... Crazy. His iPhone photography skills are the best and he's a very cheerful and friendly man who even defeats those who are just selling.

The desert tour is Hassim. It was nice to have been kind to me the day before the pickup, and most of all the photos are really good. Almost like a professional photographer. The sunrise tour weather is also very cool and nice! If anyone is concerned, go!

Superb morning and very well framed, I recommend 100%, thrills guaranteed 🔥 My children of 13 and 11 years loved, watch out for the heat anyway because the caps can not be worn so providing a peg on the head is not a bad idea in the end

Great, friendly staff, good organization with smooth operation. We enjoyed it a lot! However, I am not quite sure that the booked times were met and met 100%.

Hussain is amazing. He really did a very good job, he did not leave us from the beginning of the tour in dessert safari until the end. The tour wasn’t boring because of his sense of humor. Kuddos to you! He deserves a raise! 👌💗
