Rayna Tours Dubai Trip Review

Rayna Tours was my tour operator throughout my trip in Dubai. Starting with my contact person Mr. Wafa who organized everything and ensured that I had a seamless and excellent tour experience. I would definitely recommend him to anyone planning to tour Dubai Through Rayna Tours. All the accompanying guides were amazing( Toqeer, Toseef and Zaheed) not forgetting Shakeel at the travel desk who was always there to guide me on my next tour.

Best Safari Organiser. Thanks to Akthar Hussain

We had an excellent private desert safari experience thanks to our Safari Guide, Mr. Akthar Hussain. He was professional and attentive throughout the trip. On the way to the desert, he guided us well regarding the various places we passed and ensured we were well taken care of once we reached the safari site. ​I really appreciated how he frequently enquired about our comfort and thoughtfully provided water bottles for the return journey. He was also very flexible and ready to stop at a good shopping spot if we wished. Highly recommended for his dedicated service!"

Great dune bashing but very small tents & avg. food + performances!!

We booked this tour with Rayna travels. Amir Shahbad picked us up & gave the desert dune bashing experience. Man it was wonderful. He is such. Great driver Ensured top notch desert dune bashing experience. It was just wow! Coming onto tent city- it was very small with not too many options. Food was not that good with very limited options plus it was cold not that hot. Performances were very avg or boring. In all 1st part was exceptional , second part was totally opposite & let us down.

Bad experience

BBQ and the show in the camp was alright. Transport was really bad, I am 1,89cm and the put me and my wife in the back where is not enough room for me plus was a bad smell of petrol that made my wife to throw up. I asked to change the car or have a solution, but nothing. All the activities cost, even if they advertise as included. I wouldn't recommend this travel agency. We had a bad experience!
