The tour with our guide, Mustafa, was excellent - all the way from the punctual pickup, to his extensive knowledge of the desert and animals. I did a similar tour back in 2019 and I would recommend booking the wildlife experience/white dunes experience with Oasis Tours, as the last guide was rather grumpy, whereas Mustafa was very attentive and the tour much longer than the trip to the red dunes near Sharjah. As for animals, there were plenty of Oryx, Gazelles and Flamingos around. 10/10
It was really fun. You get a fun Safari ride, the music is good, you get decent food and the performances are great (fire & belly dancers end the show). Top
All the program was great, the deivers of our group were excellent and helpful. There were 2 pregnant ladies in our group and still we could enjoy a “light” version of the dune safari. Both the program and the meal, together with the general ambient atthe camp were first class, I would definitely recommend the whole pack to anyone visiting Dubai. I have visited several similar programs here in Dubai and there is none worth comparing. Thank you so much! Special thanks to Mr. Jaffre for making our afternoon and evening so pleasant!
We had a very good experience and enjoyed the safari very much. Evening camp experience with various entertainmening dance shows were outstanding. Our guide Nithin was very experienced and gave us clear instructions. I recommend this premium desert safari with Orient tours is a must have experience.
Excellent tour, exceptional 4x4 experience done by our expert driver Nitin. Highly recommended. Will definitely come back with our kids soon.
Great tour - thanks Nitel! It didnt feel touristy as we were the only ones in the desert. The snacks and breakfast were also a nice touch.
The dessert safari was marvelous We had self-drive of motor bike Horse drive , entertainment was good. Dinner was good and in plenty
Had a wonderfull experiance of safari ride. We enjoyed very much specially our kids. the guide is very cooperative he helped very much our safari guide nasir
Great sunrise experience – highly recommend! The tour was smooth and well-organized from start to finish. Our guide was super friendly, respectful, and really listened to everyone. The dune bashing was fun but safe, and the desert at sunrise was just breathtaking. Perfect way to start the day in Dubai – thank you Orient Tours
The views were amazing!! But even though we booked a private tour, it felt more like a group tour. Our driver Mr. Jafar was rushing all the activities and was very strict with everything. Even after paying a good chunk for our safari tour, we did not have the leniency to enjoy it to the fullest. Very minimal dune bashing in the morning safari so keep that in mind while booking this safari. Overall an average experience for a premium price
Had a lovely time being taken around by Ornel. Great driver on the dunes and has good knowledge to share on the drive. Very hospitable ride, was a pleasure being driven around. Also provides useful information to avoid tourist traps which I really appreciate. Would definitely recommend to anyone considering a desert safari :)
Absolutely excellent. Worth the 4am start and our guide Nowfar was brilliant, very skilful driver. This is a must do in Dubai.
it was truly the experience of a lifetime. From the moment we arrived, everything was perfectly organized ,professional guides, well-maintained vehicles .Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate .
Muhammed munir was our driver....a very off-road talented driver...no words can explain the skill of his offroading ...more than a driver he is a friend to us
Muhammad munir was a unbelievable driver ..very talented and skilled in offload in the dunes...very friendly towards everyone .....no words can tell the thrill of riding in the dunes especially during night....best driver for offroading
Muhammad Munir was a great guide great tour would advise the Sunrise Desert safari. Took loads of photos, good breakfast. Again Muhammad was a great tour Guide. Thanks
Muhmmad Munir was a very good and professional driver. Very curious person , helpful, very good table service in the camp. I personally highly recommend this driver to anyone taking a desert safari.
Muhammad Munir was brilliant!. Highly skilled driver and made the experience so wonderful. He even helped me to take some lovely photos. Thank you Muhammad.
Really great experience. Nithin knows the area very well and is full of great tidbits about the history of Dubai. Always was prompt with pickups and drop offs and offered suggestions and ideas. Car is clean and he always has water for hydration. Communicates swiftly and adjusts when needed
Today's trip was so good, and we liked our guide, Muhammad Munir, very much. He was kind and guided our tour perfectly. We loved the day.
The views were amazing and it was really interesting. Our guide Nitin was very nice and he told us a lot. It was an unforgettable experience.
The trip was excellent and the Mr.Dhavoodh has guided us wells and worth trying it the sunrise was good and we spotted oxy and deers
Natim was our driver, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. The dune drive was comfortable, and Natim was very pleasant to spend the day with! The camp food and show were really good. 10/10 recommend! This tour excedeed our expectations
Beautiful ride! NItae, besides the fact he’s an amazing sand driver, took really good care of us from the bevy to the very end!
Incredible fire show! Muneer, our driver was such a nice guy! Super informative, polite and supportive. Big thanks to Mohammed Muneer for making this trip wonderful.
We watched the sunrise in the desert – the sky was crystal clear, making it truly breathtaking. Our driver Nitin was very friendly, spoke excellent English, and drove with great care. The ride through the dunes added a fun bit of excitement, but thanks to his skill, it always felt completely safe. Along the way, we even spotted wild oryx and gazelles. The breakfast by the lake was also well organized and delicious. All in all, it was a fantastic experience!
The experience was good. Very enjoyable and our safari guide Mr Muhammad Munir was also very friendly. Amazing experience and time well spent. Safari is must have experience in Dubai.
The morning tour was good. I forgot the person who was the guide (Manish?), but he spoke German and English. Gave a lot of history. Waited for me when I was late returning to meet the group. Sorry and thank you! Not enough time in thespice and gold souks so be prepared to come back on your own if you seriously plan to buy things and look around. All tour guides have contacts at one of the shops and will take you there to listen to their sales pitches. It'll easily take up half of your time, so skip out on that. Get the meet time and place and go explore. For the safari, Mohammed Munir was our guide. He was polite and accommodating regarding my inability to sit in the 3rd row (I get car sick) so I appreciate that he made sure I avoided sitting back there by picking me up before the car filled up. He politely answered questions, though he didn't volunteer much like I am use to hearing on a tour. Still, glad I went. I had attended a different desert safari a few days before, and it was nice seeing the different offerings though both were comparable in different ways. This show was in a more intimate setting and simpler. The dunes were flatter, which may be better for some.The other camp I went to (Nobel) was larger and more flashy. Side note (and not necessarily the tour guides fault-I don't know) but getting my details for pickup after midnight for an early morning event, and only after I spent several hours trying to track someone down, is unacceptable. I've used Viator many times all over the world. They told me I can't get a refund after the 24hr cancellation deadline. This was at 10p and before anyone reached out from the tour company. So if a customer can't get the tour provider to respond to emails or calls by a reasonable time, and Viator can't get anyone on the phone, Viator expects the customer to eat the cost, or get up at 6a and sit in the lobby for a vehicle with no confirmation if or when it would arrive, or they expect customers to keep waking to check emails during sleeping hours. Yes, these all sound like ridiculous options to any sane person. I have no problem with the cancellation policy, but there has to be exceptions when it is out of the customer's control. What is the point of using your service if you have zero protections or the tour operators have no professional expectations? I'll be switching out Viator with a different agency for future trips. But guides were good. If I remove them and just rated the tour company and Viator, I would give 1 star for blatant unprofessionalism and the time and aggravation spent on vacation going in circles trying to get details and support from the tour agency, their hotel (palace downtown), and the Viator rep.
Tour guide was friendly and explained things well. ( we had chadu) Made it fun for me and my son. We loved the sand dunes ride and had a go at sand boarding. Plenty of food and drink on offer and good quality. Would highly recommend this tour .!
Had a great time with family, well organised and Mohd Munir was very helpful and co-operative and friendly. Had a fun experience
The desert sunrise was excellent our guide Mr. Mustafa was exceptional. Best driver. I highly recommend it. Would love to do it again.
Nitin is a fantastic tour guide who took us dune bashing, wild life watching, and birding next to a small lake in the outer edge of Dubai!
I used Orient Tours for a desert safari when I first moved to Dubai 7 years ago. They are still just as excellent. They are one of few tours that include a visit to a camel farm which my family wanted to see. Our guide Mohammed Munir was wonderful. He was punctual, very professional and very helpful throughout the trip, helping with photos and telling us information about the things we were passing on the journey. The desert camp was exceptional and the entertainment truly blew away. Excellent food too. We thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience - could not recommend more highly.
We had an amazing experience in Dubai thanks to our driver and guide, Muhammad Munir. He was incredibly professional, friendly, and knowledgeable about every place we visited. He made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the trip, always going the extra mile to make sure we had the best time possible. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a trustworthy and experienced guide in Dubai!
Muhammad Munir was an amazing guide and driver . We had a wonderful desert safari experience with him. He drove safely and is also a jolly fellow. We'd love to do this again one day!
Amazing Desert Safari experience. Thank your Mr. Mohammed Munir for the best dune bashing experience and our entire Desert Safari tour. We all enjoyed to our fullest.
Mohammed Munir was the best tour guide I have ever come across throughout my tour for Dubai and any other tour I have ever come across. He is very professional , kind, matured and carry a very good etiquette which the service industry needs. Our tour for the desert safari was very memorable and he deserve a BIG THANK YOU
We had an unforgettable desert safari experience with Orient Tours, and our guide, Haroos, made it truly exceptional. From start to finish, Haroos was professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the desert and its culture. He ensured our safety while making the dune bashing thrilling and fun. His driving skills were top-notch, and he knew exactly how to keep the excitement going without ever making us feel uncomfortable. Haroos also took the time to explain interesting facts about the desert, animals, and Bedouin traditions, adding great depth to the adventure. The sunset views were breathtaking, and the camp experience was equally impressive – delicious food, live performances, and a very well-organized setup. Haroos constantly checked in on us, making sure we were enjoying every moment. Thank you to Orient Safari for a well-planned trip and especially to Haroos for making it truly memorable. Highly recommended!
A big thank you to Mr. Muhammad Munir Safari guide for giving us the best lifetime experience. The professionalism of the guide is commendable and totally recommended for the family and friend groups. He clicked amazing pictures for us as well that we will cherish forever. Five stars

The Dubai Desert Safari exceeded all expectations! The entire journey was well-coordinated, and the planning made everything seamless. Our guide(Muhammad munir) was experienced, friendly, and made us feel safe throughout especially during the thrilling dune drive. The quality of the experience was top-notch — from the scenic camel rides and golden sandboarding slopes to the peaceful desert sunset. The cultural camp in the evening was a real highlight, with great food, traditional shows, and a welcoming atmosphere. We felt it was great value for what was included, and accessibility options made it comfortable for everyone. A fantastic way to experience the desert’s beauty and Dubai’s rich heritage!

The guide(muhammad munir) were not only friendly but also very knowledgeable —they shared interesting facts about the desert and ensured our safety throughout, especially during the thrilling dune bashing ride! The entire experience was packed with excitement — camel rides, sandboarding, and breathtaking sunset views over the dunes. The evening was magical with live entertainment, delicious BBQ, and a cozy traditional camp setting. Everything felt thoughtfully planned and delivered great value for money. The tour was accessible and accommodating, making it enjoyable for everyone in our group. Highly recommend this adventure for anyone visiting Dubai — it’s the perfect mix of culture, adventure, and relaxation!

Mohammad monir was the best leader and driver The whole experience waa great Sophi dancing Fire work Belly dancing The food
Great food and experience! 👍 I am a solo joiner and met new people iwith this trip. Thank you for the good vibes and memories.
We had the greatest time with Musthafa! The morning ride is perfect for watching the sun rise and enjoying the off roads in the right temperature. Super suggested!
From door to door one of the top Dubai Dune Bashing experience by far! Newer vehicle, super fun dune bashing including latest sand boards, high quality fresh food spread and top notch entertainment especially the fire breather! However the biggest mention has to go to Muhammad Munir our safari guide. His knowledge about the dunes, driving skills and always looking to take your experience to next level was truly a breath of fresh air. Thank you Munir; you are a great credit to Orient Tours. Keep it up!
