We did the Safari with Mahmoud and the old Dubai tour with Mohamed Amine, they are the best. The trips were very funny and enjoyable. The guides were so kind to us. I really enjoyed it.

You’ll be picked up in a modern, air-conditioned 4-wheel drive vehicle and taken on an exciting drive across the Arabian Desert in the hands of an expert driver. Race up against the giant sand dunes for approximately 30 minutes. Head to the top of the largest sand dune and watch the full glory of a desert sunset and to click some Instagrammable pictures. Head to the top of the largest sand dune and watch the full glory of a desert sunset before continuing to an exclusive Bedouin campsite nestled deep in the desert.

Thank you Saiif for being our driver and guide. We had the best time on our desert adventure. You were so helpful and informative. We loved visiting the Bedouin camp - the food was amazing. Star gazing and the falcon experience also really enjoyable. Highly recommend. Ps thanks for the birthday cake too!
Booked through rep at hotel Ghadi who was amazingly helpful. Excellent service before and after the trip. Highly recommend
Fantastic Family experience for all ages. Throughly enjoyed the jeep safari, meeting the camels, quad bikes, food and evening entertainment. Our driver was outstanding, so attentive, spoke clear English, provided great conversation, water and uk music! Elevate staff at the hotel certainly know their stuff, very informative and friendly and provide great experiences at great prices.
Superb experience ! We used Elevate for desert trip and Dubai/Abbu Dhabi days out. Absolutely amazing from start to finish. We couldn’t have wished for better drivers. Thank you Ghadi for organising it for us.
I rarely leave negative reviews, but Caravanserai was a real letdown. The food ranged from very average to downright disappointing — cold, lacking freshness, and clearly over-commercialised. Soft drinks were served warm, which only added to the frustration. It felt like a tourist trap more focused on profit than quality. Overall, a waste of time and money. I wouldn’t return or recommend it.
This trip and several others I took whilst in RAK was organised by Ghadi the local rep. This like the others I did was superb and good value for money. Ghadi went out of his way to assist me throughout my stay. He could not have been more helpful or attentive. The best customer service I have received in a very, very long time. In summary 11 out of 10! Mark PC East Sussex UK
Excellent adventure. Thankyou so much for our reps personal service. Ghadi is a super perfessional adviser. 5 star service.
What an EPIC experience from start to finish. It started with a friendly welcome from Mustafa who was our driver and guide. His driving was extremely thrilling and adrenaline fuelled yet felt very safe throughout and he was very knowledgeable of Dubai; there were also some great sunset photo opportunities where Mustafa got involved with the group to help take some beautiful shots. Upon arrival to the camp Mustafa made us familiar with it before being seated to our table which was very quaint and had a lovely authentic feel with the beanbags. We then went straight to the camels which was a lot of fun. The only criticism is that we then went to find the sand boarding but struggled to locate it, however that certainly did not dampen the evening as we then had our starter which was very nice. Other guests had Henna tattoos which were very well done but we proceeded back to our table ready for the entertainment which began with a belly dancer. We honestly could not take our eyes off her, she was talented, sexy, and very classy. This was followed up by a fire performer which was very exciting. Both of these acts succeeded in getting the crowd involved. We then had our main course which was a good selection of bbq food with fresh salad and rice which is all provided by a local 5* restaurant. To finish the night there was a male performer, I'm not sure what the act is called but it involved some skilful tricks, with a light performance and topped off with a fire performance. This excursion is very well executed and has an authentic feel to it. I rarely write reviews but this is well deserved. Highly recommended.
Coming all the way from Aberdeen, it was nice meeting new people with different experiences. Enjoyed the camel ride. The car ride in the sand dunes was brilliant as well, very well done by Mustafa our driver and tour guide.
The safari was the most beautiful and special experience of our lives. Our guide Mustafa, made it special. Cheerful, happy, friendly and professional. His only goal was our entertainment and safety. Safari with only Mustafa!Thanks for all Mustafa! We will never forget this experience with you!
We went on the desert safari for the dune bashing experience. Our driver Mustafa was a brilliant guy who is a experienced and masterful driver. I would definitely recommend Elevate tours 100%. . Thank you Mustafa for a brilliant day out. The kids enjoyed themselves and the food was good at the camp. Overall experience was good but lacking in some places. The camel ride lasts less than 2 mins and I think it would be good if it was a bit longer. The sand boards were broken and there was no point even attempting to surf down as it just got stuck. The pit stop at the shops is pointless as there are no items price marked. The salesmen will decide the price depending on your appearance i.e can we rip you off or not? The prices are quite expensive for what they are but you would liken it to stopping at a motorway services with a bit more sales pressure. Overall this excursion is fun and enjoyable and the drivers are experienced and safe.
The safari tour was just amazing! Our guide, Mustafa, was present from start to finish. He came to our hotel to pick us, the trip to the desert lasted about 30 minutes (+15 minute stop to go to the toilet + deflate the tires) and at every moment he explained to us the different stages of our tour and he even taught us a lot about Dubai, it was very interesting. He answered our questions with pleasure and during dinner, he was also very present so that we could eat well! Mustafa can have a very sporty drive in the desert, I highly recommend if you like it, do not lunch before haha. After the 4x4 in the desert, we ate a barbecue and have access to lots of activities (camel, falcon, surf on the sand, show…)
Dubai desert safari (Elevate DMC company). This was probably the best day we had out and about in Dubai in Feb (2022). Some of the photographs from this trip have made it onto the pictures hanging up at home! We were picked up form our hotel precisely when we were told, and driven an hour out into the desert to the Hajjar Mountain area, and site of the Red Dunes. The driver and guide was very nice, helpful and to be blunt looked after us for several hours without missing a trick. Made sure the wife and kids were aware of what to do and made sure we were all safe. We did stop off at a place to use the restroom and the usual souvenir place, but all safe and what you might expect out in the desert (basic). Once the tyres were deflated we were off on an exhilarating blast through the dunes. We did get stuck in the sand while driving through the in the 4x4, but that just added to the fun. The food in the evening in the Bedouin camp was authentic and very good, as was the entertainment. Fire eating and twirling. You get the picture! At the end of the night were were taken back to our hotel on the Palm very late, but still with a smile on our face. Make sure you book with the right desert safari in Dubai. We were lucky and chose the best one, but we did see some rather amateur events and bedouin camps set up on our way to the evening part of the trip.
I cannot speak highly enough of Elevate tours. They were very helpful and attentive and the staff very friendly. The dune safari and dinner with traditional performances were very enjoyable and I would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Dubai. Special thanks to Mustafa and Sareef for all their help
It was wonderful trip!! Amazing safari, camel riding, sandboard, much of delicious food and three shows - belly dance, national dance and fire show 😍 Our guide Mustafa was very friendly and sociable! Thank you😊
The desert safari trip was an incredible experience. Our guide Nouman was absolutely amazing - he arrived on time to pick us up from the hotel, explained what will happen every step of the way, helped us take some really fab photos of the sunset, and he even took a little detour on the way back so that we can take more photos. Nouman is also a very experienced driver and proved his skills on the dunes (so much better than the roller-coaster). The trip included dinner with local food (barbecue chicken and lamb, and a selection of sides and salads), 3 amazing shows (belly dancing and fire shows), camel riding, and henna painting. A few gift shops were also available on site. Overall it was a memorable experience and we couldn't ask for a better guide. I highly recommend it.
Very Nice expérience ! Our guide Mustafa was Perfect and the Best !!! very kind & interesting, thank you :)
The off roading was great fun, recommend strapless sandals for walking in the sand dunes, easy to take off/put on.
