Top desert experience
Amazing trip with Khaled to his camp in the desert.
Amazing playing in the sand, camels and stargazing, with Khaled making us very comfortable and overall ensured a fantastic experience.
Definitely going to repeat with other friends as they come to Riyadh.

Red Sand dunes experience
I had an amazing experience at this desert spot! The sandboarding was honestly one of the most fun things I’ve ever done — the dunes were perfect, and everything felt safe but still exciting. Riding the camels was also really special; it gave the whole trip a calm, traditional vibe that made it even more memorable.
What really made the experience stand out, though, was the service. A huge thank you to Bashaar for being so kind, helpful, and welcoming the whole time. He made sure everything ran smoothly and that we were enjoying every moment.
Overall, I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a fun and unique desert adventure. I’d 100% come back again!

Magical moments in the dessert
I had an amazing day at the Red Sand Dunes experience. From start to finish, everything was well organised and genuinely exciting.
The activities included dune bashing, sandboarding, sand wakeboarding, a camel ride, and finishing with Iftar in a traditional desert tent. Every part of the experience was enjoyable and professionally run.
What truly made the day special, though, was Mohammed Al Dossary (Abu Saad). His depth of knowledge, warm personality, and passion for sharing the culture made the experience magical and memorable. He didn’t just guide us — he made us feel welcome and turned the day into something we’ll never forget.
Highly recommended. Thank you for everything — until next time.

Extremely bad experience
I showed up at the meet up point but there’s no one, I tried to reach out to the tour operator in this app but there is no reply
Operator response
I’m very but you showed up very late after we left , I would recommend you to come 30 minutes before the trip starts
