It was very extreme & the best experience Liwa Travel brought us to Abu Dhabi Desert Safari. Very friendly marshal & good vibe. I like sandboarding & camel bcs it is my first time experience it. Lovely place with lovely people.
We had a wonderful experience on the Abu Dhabi safari. The whole trip was exciting and well organised, from the desert drive to the beautiful scenery and activities. The safari gave us a great opportunity to experience the desert landscape and enjoy a different side of Abu Dhabi. Our guide/driver was friendly, helpful and professional throughout the trip, making sure we were comfortable and safe. The driving experience through the desert was definitely one of the highlights! Overall, it was a memorable experience and something I would recommend to anyone visiting Abu Dhabi, especially if you want to experience the desert and enjoy some adventure outside the city.
Absolutely amazing experience! I must strictly recommend PRIVATE TOUR to the desert, we was with BASITH and everything was amazing, thank you a lot for this! It is unforgettable memory!
Had very good driver who was Shihab he helped with everything and made the trip fun. He is very helpful he facilitated the whole process from driving to avtivities.
Amazing tour & adventure we would recommend 100%. Our driver Basith was top-notch, incredibly chill and laidback, and wonderfully skilled! You will have a lot of fun and feel extremely safe with him. He took us to a very nice and steep dune where we could do sandsurfing alone in the desert, without at all feeling hurried. Great experience overall! Thanks Basith!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Had an amazing experience with the Desert Safari! Everything was perfectly organized — from the dune bashing to the sunset views, it was unforgettable. Special thanks to our guide and driver, Basith, who made the trip extra special. He’s such a friendly, professional, and kind person — explained everything clearly and made sure we were comfortable and safe throughout the ride. Highly recommend this team for anyone planning a real desert adventure! 🌅🚙🐪
Great experience, Basith is very hospitable and accomodating. Show is perfect and the food also is great. I will definitely recommend to my friends and will definitely come back again.
If you’re visiting Abu Dhabi and want an unforgettable desert experience, this tour is a must! The desert safari was absolutely incredible the dune bashing was thrilling, peaceful camel ride at sunset. The sandboarding was a lot of fun, and our tour guide Bazz made sure we felt safe and comfortable throughout the adventure. The evening ended with a delicious BBQ dinner under the stars, featuring traditional Emirati entertainment. Everything was so well-organized, and the pickup and drop-off were on time. Highly recommend this for anyone looking for an authentic Abu Dhabi desert adventure that combines fun, culture, and great food.
Highly recommend Baz for anyone interested in doing a desert safari in Abu Dhabi. Great service, door to door pick up and drop off. The show is fantastic with amazing sunsets, tradition arabic music and a superb range of food options.
We had very fun experience throughout the day Everyone in my family amd friends enjoyed all activities provided. Many thanks to Mr Haneef and team for organizing such a wonderful trip, and make the trip easy and smooth.
Ravi was an awesome tour guide, very knowledgeable about the history of Abu Dhabi. We went to the Sheikh Zayed Mosque, then dune bashing, sand boarding, and ended with camel riding, very worth the money.
Best experience ever! From the pick-up at our place to the dune bashing, camel feeding and barbecue in the desert of Abu Dhabi. And the cherry on the cake is the star gazing in the middle of the desert. Big thanks to Basith who took care of us!
I loved everything. First of all I should mention the guide who was the best ever (Basith). He is really nice person and wants you to have the best experience out of these 6 hours. Also he will take you perfect photos and suggest you a lot of things. The extreme driving on the dunes was like a coaster and then the sand surfing was really fun! You can also take cool pics there jumping or just sitting. Later photos with camels and videos feeding them. The night ends with cool falcon photos dressed like a native, food and some dancing. Everything is included in the price, so don’t worry about anything!
We took the tour with Haneef. He was an excellent guide and very helpful and polite. I went with my parents and young kids and he made sure everyone had fun. I would highly recommend.
The views were mesmerising and the spots covered by the team is beyond imagination. Loads of Adventure….. Must visit….
I had an amazing experience with Liwa adventure tours and safari! The staff was professional and friendly, ensuring everything ran smoothly from pickup to drop-off. The dune bashing was thrilling yet safe, and the camel ride and sandboarding added an authentic touch to the adventure. The evening at the campsite was unforgettable, with stunning performances like the Tanoura dance, belly dancing, and fire show. The BBQ dinner was delicious, with plenty of options to enjoy. Overall, it was a well-organized and magical experience. Highly recommend Liwa adventure for an unforgettable desert adventure!
Such an amazing experience! Our tour guides - Rafi and Sanal were the best. The food at the bbq was delicious, we will definitely book with them again.
Our guide was fantastic and we have had a truly memorable day, seeing and experiencing so many different things. Can thoroughly recommend! Thank you Baz for being an amazing guide and driver.
One word: unforgettable. Our guide, Basith, was extraordinary and went above and beyond to take care of my group. From adrenaline raising events like sand duning and sand boarding to a traditional nightly experience filled with fantastic food and entertainment - this trip had it all. If you want an all in one, action packed day and an awe inspiring night, this is for you. 10/10, I definitely will continue to recommend this for anyone that comes to Abu Dhabi. Also, Basith is a great photographer and will capture your groups best moments in the best light, literally.
An amazing tour experience, Basith showed us a great time with impressive desert driving, and the camp was a perfect cap to the trip. Great food, awesome shows, views and shisha! Couldn’t recommend him and the company enough. If you’re visiting and thinking about something special to do, don’t hesitate, this is worth it!
Overview: BLUF would do again. Me and 4 friends went on the tour around 3pm and had such a great time with our guide Bashith. Once we booked it we coordinated a pick up time from the hotel via WhatsApp. He was actually not just on time but 10 min early. Food: was absolut FIRE! It is buffet style so no worries about portions, I tried a little bit of everything from the salad to the meat (that was seasoned and cooked like a Unc should)10/10. Events: So much fun. Definitely happy I wore breathable athletic wear for the sand boarding portion. The camels were nice and approachable. For sand bashing hands down would do again. Recommend if you have a sensitive stomach to sit in the front or middle because the back feels like a roller coaster. To cap the night off the camp sight was a lot of fun and the 2 dancers were great.
Perfect relaxing trip The guide, Sanel, was very funny and interactive. Concern for our well-being and made this trip funny and memorable Great photography skills Can fully trust his skills with taking photos
Sanal number one, top driver for desert and very nice place with lots of fun and performances, wonderful experience can't wait to go back
This tour is awesome. It would be The most best time in Abudabi!! The guide is really kind, he is the best driver and photographer :)
It was an amazing experience and our tour guide Basith was very friendly and helpful and had a nice attitude. The dune rides were fun and took lots of amazing pictures
Fantastic experience with an amazing guide - Basith - totally recommended ! Professional arrangement, responsiveness, affordable pricing !
This was my first trip to Abu Dhabi and the Middle East and so I wanted to experience sand dunes and the desert landscape, and this tour did not disappoint. Ashraf was our guide and he was sweet and helpful and took great care of us. I went by myself but was glad to be with a group, there were 6 of us plus our guide. It was about a 45 minute drive to the dunes from the city and I’d say definitely go in the winter because the weather was perfect. Not too cold, not too hot (I went in late Feb) and it was about 70-75 degrees F (20-21C?). The tour was a great way to check off a lot of must-dos at once—riding through the sand dunes, trying my hand at sandboarding, riding a camel, getting a henna tattoo, sitting on pillows while eating delicious barbecue and watching a live show. It was all as advertised. A great sampling. I’d definitely recommend the tour and our guide Ashraf, especially for people who haven’t experienced the desert before and/or don’t have a lot of time to explore.
Our driver Sanal was amazing. He was so attentive to our needs. We had a senior citizen and he made sure she was comfortable and had everything she needed. We had an amazing time! Highly recommended.
Liwa Adventure tour and Safari were very responsive and effective with their communication and customer service from the moment I booked. We switch our pick up from the hotel to the Louver early that morning and Sanal was very accommodating. Sanal gave us a really fun experience riding in the dunes and took great photos to capture our memories. The desert was beautiful from sunset to the star gazing, photos with the camel and riding them was really cool. We snowboarding back home but sand boarding is way tougher. I’m glad we did it. In my option, one of the best view was being top point of sand boarding. It was worth the hike up. The food was delicious, staff and performers were all so wonderful. The set up in the desert was really cute and clean. I would recommend booking with them and doing the activities for your visit. Thanks Sanal for service. We appreciate you!
I choose these guys second time and again satisfied with their service. Special thanks to Basith. He is perfect in dune bashing!! Thank you for an amazing day!!
We have had a great time today. The best was driving in the desert “safari”. Our driver Ashraf was very polite and helpful, we enjoyed his company very much. And he took the best pictures of us in the desert! We hope to come back sometime soon.
We had a great experience in sand dunes. Best service has been provided by Liwa adventure team. Very nice food provided in safari camp. Good ambience & very very nice safari ride. I have never saw like this fire show in any other camp. Nice camp & desert safari who took as was very nice person. A big thanks to basid who took as to this very nice place.
we had a wonderful day. Everything it amazing. I strongly recommend this service. Thank you Ibrahim for you welcome.
Thanks Basith it was a very nice experience in the desert P.s Thanks also for the Camel Milk very nice :) …………………………………..
3 x young kids 2 x adults Private trip with Basith, who is a gent, everything perfect, highlight of trip
It was super. Our driver Mr Haneef was very good. All was fantastic. The Safari Desert, the show and dinner BBQ were good.
The desert safari was breathtaking. The camp site and activities were great. Our guide and other supporting staffs we met were highly professional, and cooperative.Will definitely recommend to people who are visiting Abu Dhabi.
Our guide, Basith, was plane amazing! I had my whole family with me, and we all had a remarkable experience! Any time I am back in UAE, will certainly come back!
Liwa Adventures is highly recommended! Everything is perfect ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Basith is very accommodating and friendly. He was not just our tour guide but also a veerrrry good photographer!! Sand-boarding, dune bashing, camel riding, buffet, henna, and the program itself are entertaining and it’s so much fun!! 🥰😊😍 I swear this is the best place to spend your weekend 💖💖💖💖
This is my best experience joining Desert safari in Abu Dhabi. Mr Basith is the best tour guide from Liwa Adventure gave me and my friend the best services along the Desert Safari. He gave us the best driving experiences. He pick us at the hotel and drop us back to hotel as well. The food was so good and the belly dance was so beautiful. Thank you so much.. Hopefully can join again and make another experience...
Excellent service as always! The tour was personalised as per our preferences and we felt taken care of. Amongst all the activities our family had in Abu Dhabi over 2 weeks period, the desert safari was their absolute favourite. Many thanks to Nazar for always making sure we get the most amazing and unforgettable experience!
Best Dessert and Safari Experience , I totally recommend it , first of all the price is more than worth it , the overall quality of the tour surpassed my expectations. If booking please ask for Basith! Is the best photographer and tour guide , really his pictures are like art. Thank you Liwa tours for this forever memory!
What a great experience!! Very well organised by our drivers (Saif, Hannif and Bassith), safe drive, very good food and amazing place for sunset!
What an adventure. We got picked up from our flat by Mr Basssith super friendly and very experienced guide. First we hit the dunes it was a thrilling ride spcl the kids had lot of fun during dune bashing. Then we did Sandboarding which was fun. After pictures and sundown we went to the camp for camel riding and quad bike.The buffet dinner and dance show was a nice closing. Definitely a memorable experience and kids started asking when can we go next time. So see you soon Bassith!
It was a fantastic and very authentic experience! It is a great value for money. I highly recommend this and must be top in your list even if you are planning a weekend trip! It's almost 6 hour fun packed experience, starts from picking you up from the hotel and 45 mins drive approx to outskirts of the city towards one of the finest deserts. The Camel farm visit/feeding is the first thing, then followed by adrebaline filled sun bashing, then sun starts to set and you can get some incredible pictures. Then you get to the actual site, where you will be spending most of the time doing camel ride,quad biking, sand boarding, spectating belly dance and enjoy the authentic buffet food for free with a cold drink! Tips- carry plenty of water with you, some ha d towels and also hat/sun glasses/sun lotion! Also be aware that, once you are in the desert, the phone reception is poor!.
It was an amazing experience for me. Basith was exemptionally good. He even stopped to help another vehicle which was stuck on the way. It was a good experience to see the rescue. Also the Belly dance, food, camel ride and quad bike ride was so good.
Fantastic desert with Liwa adventures and Haneefa as the tour guide. Seamless booking via WhatsApp, picked from hotel by Haneefa who was genuinely friendly throughout. Highly recommended.
An amazing afternoon and evening.... the dune bashing was an incredible adrenaline rush.... our driver Basith was very knowledgeable and a really nice person. All parts of the safari were excellent.... highly recommended
Fantastic evening desert safari by Liwa Adventures. It was very well organised and easy to deal with Salman, who was very efficient in responding back with dates, prices and information for the safari. Our driver, Ibrahim, was excellent. He was very well equipped with knowledge and experience in driving the car. We thoroughly enjoyed our family trip to the desert safari. The BBQ dinner offered was really nice, bellydancing was great and quad biking. I would highly recommend booking the desert safari with Liwa Adventures. They were fantastic at dealing with everything and responding to any of my questions very quickly.
