Have you ever explored UAE's largest unfenced desert reserve? Arriving at Al Marmoom Desert Reserve after a 50-minute ride from the hotel in a modern air-conditioned vehicle, we shall hop on to the Vintage G Class Mercedes 1980s.
During our 30-40 minute drive, we shall halt amidst the desert to enjoy a photo stop. This is the right opportunity to listen to Dubai's history, and the old Bedouin lifestyle.

I had a great day, once again Ocean Air Travels sent me a great guide, this time it was Yousef, he’s made sure I was happy & comfortable from start to finish. I enjoyed the activities very much & the location. Yousef let me decide the pace I wanted to move at & always made sure I was completely happy. I loved riding the camel, the Arabian horses & holding the bird of prey. Yousef drove the vehicle well on the dunes. They fed me very well in the camp, I’ve never seen so much food in front of me. The Arabic coffee & tea was lovely too. I’d definitely recommend this tour.
Yousef is a great guide! I recommend the Heritage experience. Perhaps not in the middle of summer but it was still manageable. Great food, cool shows and an experience you must do in Dubai.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Desert Safari Experience We had an absolutely fantastic evening at the Dubai Evening Heritage Safari by Vintage G-Class at Al Marmoom Oasis. From the vintage G-Class drive through the desert to the camel ride, falcon experience, Bedouin village, delicious dinner and traditional entertainment, the whole experience was very well organised and memorable. A special thank you to our guide Saeed, who was friendly, professional and extremely helpful throughout the evening. He made sure we were comfortable, explained everything clearly and really added to the experience. The atmosphere at Al Marmoom Oasis was beautiful, especially as the sun went down and the evening began. It felt authentic, relaxed and very different from the usual Dubai tourist experiences. Highly recommended, especially if you want to experience the traditional side of Dubai. Thank you Saeed for making our evening so enjoyable! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We had an absolutely unforgettable desert safari – and that was primarily due to our guide Imran! He was simply outstanding from start to finish: incredibly friendly, extremely competent, and also a very safe driver. We felt in the best of hands during the entire tour. We were particularly impressed that Imran took a lot of time for us. We were able to enjoy the desert in peace, take beautiful photos, and experience a breathtaking sunset – a real highlight. Thanks to his excellent local contacts, everything went smoothly. He really made everything possible for us: We were able to ride camels, hold a falcon on our arm, and experience a spectacular fire show up close. You could tell that he is appreciated everywhere and knows exactly how to offer his guests a perfect experience. This tour was the absolute highlight of our Dubai vacation. If we book a desert safari again, then only with Imran! A clear 5-star recommendation – it doesn't get any better than this!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Truly Unforgettable Desert Experience! This was my third Heritage Safari, and every visit has been even better than the last. If you’re looking to escape the city and experience the true beauty of Dubai’s desert, this is the perfect adventure. The Al Marmoom Desert Conservation Reserve is simply breathtaking, with its beautiful lakes, golden sand dunes, and incredible wildlife. Watching the birds in their natural habitat and learning about the desert ecosystem made the experience even more special. A huge thank you to our amazing conservation guide, Imran Khan, whose knowledge, passion, and enthusiasm made the safari truly unforgettable. His insights into the wildlife, conservation efforts, and local heritage added so much value to the tour. I highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Dubai. It’s the perfect combination of nature, wildlife, culture, and adventure. I can’t wait to come back for my fourth visit!
Had the pleasure of having Imran Khan as our tour guide. What a great person.. made me and my family feel very comfortable, answered any questions we had, very knowledgeable and courteous.
