The ATV, Camels, Food and our Guide
Salman was absolutely amazing.the guiding started before we even got to the location. During the ride he gave us local history and information about things the tourist books wouldn’t know to mention. During the ATV ride, he made sure we were safe and had a good time. He took videos and pics for us. Then the camel ride was so cool, and the food at the camp was amazing. The experience exceeded the price by leaps. Salman was prompt, helpful and easy going. I’m scared of birds, he even made sure to scare the birds away from me. In a trip full of highlights Salman as our guide sits at the top of the list as a highlight of our trip.

Must do desert safari experience!
Karem was an amazing guide for the day and the experience was second to none being picked up from the hotel, doing atv’s in the desert followed by a incredible night time experience with food, camel riding, holding an eagle and some traditional Arabic performances. Karem was very knowledgeable and despite some challenging additional travellers, went above and beyond to ensure everyone had a fantastic experience.

A fantastic afternoon/evening tour in Dubai
Such a great way to spend the afternoon/evening in the Dubai Desert. We had so much fun quad biking in the sand dunes, enjoyed a delicious bbq buffet and some great performances.
Our tour guide ‘Lucky’ was great. He was very friendly and easy to talk to.
Overall a great experience definitely worth doing!
