Our guide, Ahtisham was an amazing guide as he helped us conquer our fears of the camel ride and the quad bike. He was very reassuring throughout the whole trip and he always gave us a say in what we wanted to do. Ahtisham was a wonderful guide and we would recommend him to anyone who wants to do these activities.

We had such a wonderful time on the dessert.it was exciting beautiful and lovely. Abdul was such a good driver his information on various sights and edifices was amazing. My son enjoyed his driving on the sand dunes and he was so fond of his “uncle” Abdul he went to sandboard when his mum and I did not even want to try . Great memories. If I have to do it again , I will do it again with Abdul and nobody else.
What a wonderful experience thanks to our tour guide Gauhar Ali. We felt very comfortable thanks to him he made sure we got the best service, the night before I got an email from the operator confirming location and pick up time and was asked if I would like to change the timings due to the heat which I was very grateful for. My favourite part was the dune bashing and camel rid, the rest of the family really enjoyed the bbq and entertainment at the end of the activities it was much needed.
The whole experience was just them trying to upsell you and buy “premium” things at every single stop point. The camel ride was 20 seconds. The “buffet” dinner if you don’t upgrade is pitiful. The stars are for the tour guide, who was really great and kept making sure we were taken care of, and took great pictures. Would not recommend.
First l appreciate our guide called Raza was the best ,picking up on time ,makes sure you feel comfortable and happy .l enjoyed the ride on the way ,ride in the desert, camel riding ,food the show and everything. You're the best 👌
Raza was an excellent guide! He assisted with every activity and helped with discounts! Thanks to Raza me and my wife had an amazing time!
We had an amazing experience! Everything was well organized, from the 4x4 dune bashing to the camel ride, sandboarding, delicious BBQ dinner, and the evening shows. The performances were entertaining, and the whole atmosphere was unforgettable. A special thank you to our guide, Ahtisham, for making our trip even more enjoyable. He was professional, friendly, punctual, and made sure we were comfortable and having fun throughout the entire experience. We truly appreciated his kindness and excellent service. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Dubai! Thank you, Ahtisham, for an unforgettable desert safari!
This was an amazing experience for me and my family. The tour guide was helpful and was with us throughout the trip. The desert safari was one of a kind. The food at the end accompanied by performances made the finishing touch. Would highly recommend booking this.
Very nice experience with sand adventures with this trip Nice moment are: 1. Camel ride 2. Sandboarding like pro skater 3. Dunebashing, the Driver, Mr. Ali Basra was so amazing. He drove like a professional NASCAR DRIVER 4. Food was so nice and delicious 5. Traditional middle east dance is interesting Everything is very worth to be experienced. ITS SO WONDERFUL!!!
It was a truly beautiful experience with our guide, who took us on a camel ride. Afterwards, we went on a 4x4 adventure through the desert. Then we stopped to take photos, and later we enjoyed some delicious Arabic food. Now we are here at the end of the shows. Thank you very much for the hospitality and for being such a great host. We highly recommend this agency.
It was a great experience that I will never forget. We enjoyed a lot and we have a lot of fun. Gauhar Ali was a great tour guide. He is the best! Next time I came back, I will make sure to contact him incase I wanted to experience the best Desert Safari Tour.
We had a great time. We really enjoyed the quad bikes ( charged as extra) and the dune bashing. Special shout out goes to our driver Hassan who was kind and even made some nice videos of us when we were riding the camels. Be ready to pay for extras as lots of things are not included in the price but it is worth it.
Great dune bashing experience, sand boarding and evening food and entertainment, Javid was very attentive. It was a good 2.5 hour drive out to the desert which we didn’t anticipate but it was worth it when we got there
Best experience for our debut in Dubai. Asif made the best of the trip. Started with camel ride, followed by Quaddriving, then dune bashing, sandboarding and BBQ. Luckily we met a german father with his sons, we loved a lot … thx Asif for the ice cream at the end. Totally we recommend him
Loved every moment of the desert safari from start to finish! Our guide, Shahab, was fantastic and made the experience unforgettable. The dune bashing, camel riding, and BBQ dinner were all amazing. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Dubai — a must-do experience!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 Star Review for Javed – Our Desert Safari Ninja 🥷🌵🐪 What a guy. From the minute we got in the car, Javed was class. Handed us control of the music (brave man 😂), spoke perfect English, and made the whole trip feel relaxed and easy. Nothing was too much bother. At the camels 🐪 he was brilliant – helping us, making sure we were sorted, probably laughing at us internally but keeping it professional 🤣 Then into the dunes… and wow. The man drives like a Desert Safari Ninja. Up, down, sideways, rollercoaster stuff – proper white-knuckle fun but always felt safe. Serious skills. Now… the only drama of the day – two blow outs 😳 Not one. TWO. Poor Javed left like a lone warrior in the desert sorting the car while we were living our best lives watching the other tours flying about in the most stunning desert setting. Honestly felt bad for him… but the scenery was outrageous and the photos were unreal 📸🔥 Through it all he stayed calm, professional and just cracked on. Absolute credit to the company. So thank you Javed – top driver, top bloke, proper legend of the dunes. If you’re booking a desert safari… ask for the Ninja 🥷🌵⭐️
The trip with ali started by taking us straight from the hotel (which is a great opportunity). we went to the dunes and everyone had the opportunity to ride a camel or buy a quad bike ride. then we went to the big dunes to ride a car and on a board. then we could get to know some Arab culture by watching shows and tasting Arab food. We liked the trip very much. we wholeheartedly recommend💙
Today was truly one of the most memorable days of my life! I enjoyed the Desert Safari so much, and the entire experience became extra special because of Gauhar Ali brother. He is not just a guide, but a genuinely kind, humble, and caring person. From the beginning till the end, he made sure we were comfortable, safe, and enjoying every single moment. His driving skills during dune bashing were amazing, full of thrill yet very safe. His friendly nature and positive energy made the whole journey even more enjoyable. Because of him, the desert didn’t just feel like sand and safari — it felt like an unforgettable adventure filled with laughter, excitement, and beautiful memories. Thank you so much, Gauhar Ali brother, for your kindness, hospitality, and wonderful company. I highly recommend anyone planning a Desert Safari to experience it with him. You will not just get a tour, you will get a beautiful memory for life!
The tour was very fun We had hassan he came on time . U stop in a station where u do extremely short camle ride of like 30 secs but u get option to purchase quad bike and these stuff We felt personal care he gave us water made sure everything was ok always Its a great experience recommend for everyone
We did the Dubai Desert Safari, Dune Bashing, Camel Ride, Sandboarding & BBQ and honestly it exceeded every expectation we had. From the moment we were picked up everything was perfectly organised, smooth and fun, but what truly made the experience special was our guide Waheed Afridi. He was incredible. Super friendly, funny, knowledgeable and made us feel completely safe the whole time (even during the crazy dune bashing 😅). You can tell he’s really skilled, it felt like a rollercoaster through the desert but never once scary. The dune bashing was thrilling, sandboarding was way more fun than we expected, and the sunset in the desert was just magical. The camel ride was a beautiful touch and gave us time to actually take in the scenery. The camp experience afterwards was amazing, great atmosphere, delicious BBQ dinner, entertainment and plenty of time to relax. It felt authentic but still comfortable and well organised. We’ve done a lot of tours around the world and this is easily one of the most memorable. If you’re booking, request Waheed Afridi. He genuinely made the whole day. Would 100% recommend to anyone visiting Dubai. A must-do experience! 🏜️✨🐫
A thrilling experience, from the dune buggys, memorable camel riding, sand boarding, exhilarating dune bashing and dinner in the desert, every experience was different and amazing. Our 5 year old son enjoyed the dune bashing the most, laughing continuously. Thank you to our wonderful driver Waheed Afridi for the amazing experience. You really went above and beyond to ensure that we all had a great time. Thank you! We highly recommend Dubai Desert Safari and Mr Afridi, the service was perfect.
What an amazing day, it all started when Waheed Afridi picked us up from our hotel. He was a great host who explained and mapped out the day excellently and he didn't disappoint. A smooth journey to the first stop to get some local attire , ride the camels, do some desert buggy racing and taking pictures with Falcons. Then it was time for the main event, Dune bashing!!! Waheed is a master driver so navigated the Dunes expertly. One of the best experiences of our lives. The food and evening entertainment was the icing on the cake a perfect end to the perfect day. Exquisite. I highly recommend this trip, the hospitality and overall customer care was the very best..
Amazing desert experience! We went quad biking, dune bashing, and sand surfing—such an adrenaline rush. Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish. Our driver, Ali Basra, was incredibly skilled and confident behind the wheel, so we felt safe the entire time. Plus, he played great music in the car, which made the ride even more fun. Highly recommend.
It was e very Good experience. From the start to the end everything was well organized ´ our tour guide was Ali Basra and he was amazing. We did camel ride, bashing and a good dinner
Awesome! Worth the trip out into the desert. Our tour guide was an expert at dune bashing and taking photos! First went to ride camels, then dune bashing then bbq with show.
Not wort wile. Everything happens in a rush. The trip on the camel tooks 1 minute. On the sand board you had to sit down and it goes one time off the hill. We both got sick in the 4x4 car. The BBQ food was not good. The all trip is too commercial. You have to pay extra for everything. They tried to sell you a lot of things.
We booked the desert safari on booking. The driver took us from the front of our hotel. He answered to all the questions we asked him. He takes photo to us and teached us how to do them so beautiful. We ride with camel, drive ATV in safari, go with his car fast also in safari, do sandbording. At the evening we has arabic shows, we ate good arabic food, maked henna tatoos, took photos with traditional clothes. It was a great day and we will recomend them to everybody will come here. Thank you!
It was a fantastic trip. Mr. Ali Basra has taken us to nice places. He took care of us well. We did came ride, dune bashing, set photos, sand boarding, and watched shows with tasty dinner. It’s worthy trip
This is the second time we have done the desert safari but the first time with this company and it was by far a much better experience.Gauhar Ali was the name of our driving and he was very professional and caring. We took my 76 year old mum with us and he always made sure she was ok and asking if she needed anything which was really nice. We upgraded for the buffet and glad we did because the food was amazing!! Overall a great time and would definitely do it again with this company thanks to Gauhar! See you next time 👍🏻
This experience was booked as a birthday surprise for my wife, and it exceeded expectations from start to finish. Every part of the day was incredible – the dune bashing was thrilling, the sandboarding was so much fun, the camel ride was a lovely touch, and the BBQ dinner rounded the evening off perfectly. A special thank you to our guide, Ali Basra, who truly made the experience exceptional. He was professional, friendly, knowledgeable and made sure we felt comfortable and looked after the entire time. His energy and attention to detail really elevated the day. An unforgettable experience and the perfect way to celebrate a birthday. Highly recommended.
Amazing desert safari experience! We had dune bashing, sand boarding, and a camel ride, all of which were so much fun and well organised. Our driver Gauhar Ali was incredibly friendly and professional he kept checking on us, made sure we were comfortable, offered us water to stay hydrated, and even took beautiful pictures for us. He really looked after us and made the whole experience enjoyable and memorable. Highly recommend and definitely ask for him if you book.
Very good communication with our driver Ali Barsa! He was caring for us and guided us along the trip. The program is great, it’s a must to do in Dubai. Also our kids enjoyed this program especially the dune drive adventure! That was really great also the sand board in the desert. Thank you Ali Barsa also for the great pictures! We loved also the show and the BBQ!
The desert safari (including sand boarding and desert camp experience) was very entertaining and definitely worth the fee. We enjoyed the drive a lot with Inam being a very skillful but adventurous driver with a great (!!!) soundtrack. In the desert camp after the safari the BBQ and atmosphere s very good and relaxed. Very enjoyable day.
It was great experience. Everything was very good except CAMEL RIDE., It wasn't really Cride but just for pictures
We had Ali Basra as our tour guide and he was the most genuine tour guide we’ve ever had came with four my sisters in Dubai made our trip stress free and fun and exciting we did the sand buggy sand dessert atv and camel riding and any shopping and language barrier struggle we had he always stuck by to made sure we weren’t pressured and got accurate price aswell the sand boarding then the afqaa dessert with performances and bqq although we had a standard we were treated like a vip customer having extra bqq meat aswell skipping us from the queue and getting us front row to the stage for performances we also got a pick up and drop service and from start he had made sure we weren’t pressured comfortable and had everything you could think off so if your looking for a reliable genuine cool and good music and vibe tour guide book ur next tour with Ali basar he 100% does not disappoint also he takes the best photos!!
We had an amazing experience! Gauhar Ali our guide and driver provided excellent customer service throughout the entire experience. My wife and I had a great time dune bashing, surfing on the sand, and the BBQ food and show was great! Would highly recommend! Thanks again Gauhar!
Great time with safari tour. The dune bashing adventure and sandboarding were thrilling and fantastic. The driver, Mr Inam was very cooperative and was of great satisfaction, cool and good hospitality. Keep up the good work 👏!
Ameer was our guide and he picked us up from our hotel and took us to multiple locations: camel ride, dune bashing, safari and camping area. He was kind and helpful to our family and we had a great time
Shahab was a wonderful guide and driver who took us to the sand dunes safely and he spoke very good English and was very knowledgeable. The sand bashjng, sand boarding and ATV was fun. The only reason I didn't give 5 star was more because the dinner was pathetic and we would have preferred without it and going back to the hotel to eat. But given the price, maybe I should not have any expectations
We have a wonderful time with this tour. The tour guide inam took care of us pretty well all the way. Sand basing ride is exllent . Food and show are very good too.
Great half day trip! We were 4 adults and 2 chilren. Our guide Waheed Afridi was superb - perfect driver, nice comunication, answered all our questions, water all the time. Picked up and droped at hotel right in time. Tour was great - buggies, quadrs are optional. After that, Dune Bashing with Waheed, Sandboarding, camel ride (could be a bit longer). In deserts afterwards BBQ, Shows, sodas, apetizers - all was great. Price perfomance perfect. No need to pay extra (only for quads and buggies).
Had an amazing Desert Safari experience yesterday! Our driver, Waheed Afridi, made the whole trip even better — super skilled during dune bashing and really friendly throughout. The dune buggy ride was a lot of fun, the camel ride was short but a cool experience, and the campsite had great food and enjoyable performances. Overall, a really memorable evening and totally worth it!
The Dubai Safari Desert Tour was a great value and lots of fun. Outstanding Tour Lead – Gauhar Ali: Gauhar Ali was exceptional—knowledgeable, friendly, attentive, accommodating and a fabulous driver. His passion and professionalism truly elevated the experience. Thrilling Dune Bashing: The driver was skilled and fun, making the ride exhilarating without feeling unsafe. It was like a rollercoaster on sand! Delicious BBQ Dinner: The buffet was generous and delicious. Camel Ride: Great photo ops. Live Entertainment: The belly dancing, fire show, and Tanoura performance were enjoyable
I had the best time in the desert. I did quad for the first time, that was so much fun and I loved sandborardoing. 0ur guide Gauthar Ali was the nicest, he looked after us the whole day, always making sure we were ok. He made my experience even better, thanks to him
Great, half-day trip they pick up from your Hotel. Our tour guide/driver was IBRAR A fantastic guy. Very experienced and knowledgeable.Then go to three different locations. First one is an activity park where you can rent four wheelers and different ATVs. Then you return with your guide in an off-road vehicle and ride some pretty serious dunes. Our driver was extremely experienced, and we were with a group ofsix other drivers all on a similar level. Then you do some sand boarding, and then your last stuff is a barbecue at a camp ground with entertainment, food, etc.. Totally worth the price.
I just returned from an incredible Dubai Desert Safari, and I have to say it was one of the most thrilling experiences I've had! The highlight for me was definitely the red dune riding—dune bashing on those beautiful red sand dunes was an exhilarating rush, and I couldn’t get enough of the adrenaline. Our driver, Ibrar, was simply outstanding. He was not only an expert behind the wheel, handling the dunes with skill and care, but also very friendly and attentive throughout the trip, making sure we were safe and comfortable. The whole adventure was well-organized with plenty of exciting activities including sandboarding and a camel ride. The live shows brought a wonderful cultural touch to the evening. Ibrar’s professionalism and great driving made the entire safari smooth and unforgettable. I highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Dubai who wants a perfect blend of adventure, culture, and fun!
Very nice experience. Safari was amazing and we enjoyed the sandboarding . For an extra fee the BBQ was excellent . Pay attention on alcohol it is very expensive and it’s not worth. Overall we were happy .
We had an amazing experience!! Our tourist guide Waheed Afridi was very knowledgeable and wonderful with us since he picked us up from the hotel and took us to through the day. We experience the camel rides and the sand dunes and dinner all at amazing places with wonderful views. Definitely will book again with him in the future. It was a pleasure to have you as our guide. A billion thanks!!!!
🌟 I had an absolutely amazing experience on our desert safari yesterday! Our lead driver, Mr. Shahab, a Pakistani expert, made the adventure truly memorable. His driving skills through the Sharjah desert dunes and sand mountains were thrilling yet completely safe — a perfect balance of excitement and professionalism. The tour included sandboarding, a visit to the Dubai desert camp, delicious dinner, and even a short city tour — everything was perfectly arranged and enjoyable. Shahab was not only an excellent driver but also a fantastic guide and wonderful person to spend time with. His friendly nature and knowledge added so much to the trip. I’d definitely love to go on more trips with Shahab Sahib — highly recommended for anyone looking for a fun, safe, and unforgettable desert safari experience!
We really enjoyed the tour! The driver Inam was wonderful — polite, courteous, attentive, and a true professional. The program was exciting, with jeep safari, quad biking, dinner, and a show. Highly recommended — a must-do experience in Dubai!
