“It is a good decision to take this tour, especially if you have limited time. The pick-up was in time, comfortable car, and interesting explanation.”
Dubai desert safari with dune bashing, sunset views, camel rides, sandboarding, BBQ dinner, and live entertainment for $60.
“Our guide Abhilash did an excellent job, the dune bashing was phenomenal, exciting, and absolutely the highlight of this tour.

Still highly recommended!”

“Spent an amazing evening with Rahma and her family at her lovely house which has been in her family for generations. The food was so so so delicious - better than the food at our hotel (Al Buston Palace) which is high praise. The company was great - Rahma and her family are so warm and we just loved our visit. Book this and ask for Rahma!”
