A very sandy but fun day! We were picked up at our hotel, the tour included getting to know the desert, lying on a board in the dunes, taking a photo on camels, a rich dinner and nightly belly dancing show and others. Highly recommended!

Absolutely amazing from beginning to end. Khalid was our guide for the day and ge comes highly recommended. He always informs the group of the places of interest amd nothing is ever too much even the car journey to the main event was interesting but what can I say about the day 🤔 just WOW WOW WOW. First stop ATV ride in the open desert with choice of free drive or guided tour, then dune bashing which was fantastic then photo opportunity in the beautiful Arabian desert. Then we went to camp where we had camel rides amazing time watching fire dancing, belly dancing and Arabian dancing with five course meal which was fabulous. You'd think this cost a fortune but no cosy less than a meal at McDonald's you must go. I can't Thank You enough it was fabulous. May God bless you Khalid.

Overall it was a great experience! Our guide Khaled picked us up at the Hotel at the right time, was very polite, had a great knowledge about the UAE history and culture and, most important, He made sure we were comfortable and provided us what we needed for the entire day. We've been in the desert riding quad bikes, climbed big dunes on his jeep and had a great dinner ( original local food) with show to end the day. All of it with plenty of fresh water and soft drinks included! We really recommend to try this if you are in Dubai, it is one of the things that will make our honeymoon unforgettable!
