1000% worth it
Really excellent experience that I 100% recommend. We were picked up by our location by Farooq and taken to Desert Safari, where we did drive a dune buggy and went camel riding. Farooq went out of his way to make the experience enjoyable and offered to take pictures of us. Farooq and the others guys made the experience unforgettable and stress free.

Excellent experience. Great photo/video.
This tour was excellent! Our driver, Mohsin Pathan, was very organized and he contacted us before the scheduled date. He offered to take us earlier before it got too hot and it ended up being better timing. He also explained some history about the UAE. The camel ride was a very pleasant experience and the dune buggy tour was spectacular. Our guide was friendly and he took the best photos and videos!!! He also let us sand board. I highly recommend this tour, thank you!!!

Quality outing
Atif was very pleasant, knowledgeable & accommodating. Got some great pics & super efficient. The buggy ride could have been more “adventurous “ but service was faultless

Great experience but get there earlier in afternoon
Guide to activities Nazeer was excellent and got me there and back! I recommend booking mid afternoon as it’s hot but you have a better experience as you miss the huge crowds that arrive around 4 pm.
If you want to feel alone with buggy and guide in the desert then get there early. After 4pm it’s a bit ridiculous how many people are there. Overall an awesome experience and buggy’s are good Polaris Models. Guides were very helpful with photos and keeping you safe
