The absolute highlight of our Dubai trip! Captain Ramy made the adventure unforgettable, effortlessly guiding us through the skies. Celebrating my 30th birthday was made incredibly special with everyone singing happy birthday. The drive in the vintage Land Rovers to a sumptuous breakfast was an added delight. Thank you, Captain Ramy, for an extraordinary experience!

Hot air balloon very nice experience, breakfast ok no very nice. What they did to us is that they put deluxe and premium together and all the people that choose deluxe they left from 8:30 am and we are still they waiting for the ones that chose the premium package to finish with the things and then to go back to the hotel.

Great experience, our pilot Pasi made the experience really enjoyable and was reassuring for my daughter who was a bit worried when we got on the hot air balloon. Pickup was prompt and on time. Whole experience well organised.
