Totally recommending them. Constant communication. Great guides. Value for money.
We had a great experience with Desert Rose tourism. All booked direct with them through Whatsapp. Timely responses with complete information and alternatives for different budgets. Always communicating and following up. We had two separate tours on the same day. City Tour in the morning and Dessert afternoon / evening. Both great value and knowledgeable guides (Ron and Gulbar).

Desert Safari
Our afternoon/dinner Desert Safari was a super experience! Our driver/guide, Mr. Faisal, was super kind, helpful and gentful and did his best to adjust the pace and route during the dune bashing to our family needs. The dinner was nice, there are plenty of water and drinks to refresh you, the henna painting is beautiful and the camel ride is a funny experience too. Count on very hot and sometimes "sandy"/windy weather.

Amazing Desert Safari Experience with Gul
I had a wonderful experience on the Premium Desert Safari, and a big part of that was thanks to my guide, Gul. Since I was traveling solo, I really appreciated how kind, warm, and attentive he was throughout the whole trip. He took great care of me and everyone in the group, and he was always happy to answer my questions. He also shared a lot of useful information about Abu Dhabi, including different attractions and places I could visit, which I really appreciated. The dune bashing was definitely one of the most fun and impressive parts of the experience for me. I had such a great time with the whole group, and all of the activities and performances were enjoyable. There were plenty of things to try, and Gul was always willing to help and did his best to make sure everyone had a good experience. I especially want to thank Gul for treating us so well and putting so much effort into making the trip enjoyable. He was professional, friendly, patient, and genuinely caring. As a solo traveler, having such a nice and reliable guide made me feel very comfortable throughout the day. Thank you, Gul, and the whole team for giving me such a memorable experience in Abu Dhabi!
