Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque & Dubai Evening Desert Safari Combo

Had an amazing time! Jabbar was the best tour guide and driver he showed us around and taught us about the culture. Would recommend for sure

Rah Tourism driver Abdullah Sayaf finalize this poor experience being rude.Scammers at the desert safari stop with falcon. I couldn’t enjoy my dinner due to excessive amount of cats interrupting my dinner. A waste of money. No camel ride because the driver rush us to the car as well as we couldn’t really understand everything he told us because of fast talking.Poor service

10/10 RECOMMEND! Rehan was awesome!! The communication was great. They let us know the night before when they would arrive, and the morning of let us know their exact time of arrival. Our driver to the mosque even helped with our bags so we didn’t have to haul them around the mosque after purchasing. We also had time to shop and have lunch before heading to the next set of activities. Rehan was our driver for the dune bashing and all other activities. He was simply AMAZING. The fire show to end the night, I would do it all over again for those 2 activities alone. My 7 year old LOVED the fire show, dune bashing and sand boarding! I will add there is 1 driver to the mosque for a few hours and then you return to your hotel for a few minutes which was perfect for us to change into the safari clothes. You then head to an area for the dune bashing, sand boarding, camel ride, bbq dinner, belly dancing show and fire show.

Had a good experience and the guide was very good 👍🏼 However we thought we went from the mosque to the dessert, but we got dropped off back at the hotel after the mosque to get picked up again after 2 hours

Excellent service and tour. On time on pickup and very enjoyable trip. Excellent driving in the dune ride. Finish off with a show and nice buffet meal in the desert

Lost 1.5 hours because the driver made a mistake at the destination. I'm actually disappointed with the activities!

Driver took us to locations that were nit part of our safari and wasted our time. Parts of the safari were not fulfilled. Avoid RAH tours at all cost.

If you on are on the fence about which company to use for a tour like this don't use Viator or RAH tours. Our driver took us to two locations that were not part of our safari which was a waste of time and parts of the tour were not fulfilled.

Transfer to Abu Dhabi mosque was good in the morning. However despite booking the whole day tour, the transfer from Abu Dhabi to desert safari was very poorly coordinated. We were picked up in a mini bus that was in a very poor state. We reached dune bashing late and by the time we reached desert camp, it was dark post sunset. The desert camp was crowded and food was not good at all.

Amazing, life changing experience, great company, great food, ride was so munch fun with the family. Definitely a must

The tour guides at RAH Tourism were exceptional. Highly recommend doing this tour as you get to enjoy the scenery alongside good company.

Alhamdulillah, what an amazing day we had! Our tour guide Rahman was pleasant and friendly. Much thanks to him for looking after us and facilitating such a wonderful tour.

Morning we went the grand mosque which was pretty good. Syed took us and gave us good information. Evening we went on the desert safari. The experience was really enjoyable.

Muhammad was my driver. Very great driver! Both safety and informative. I enjoy the tour very much :)

Great programs with sufficient time for everything. Our guide Afzan was superb. He was punctual, great driver and gave us great additional details during the trip. The mosque is amazing, 1,5 hours should be enough. The desert safari part is also awesome, great set of different activities. Our only comment would be that the restrooms were a bit unclean, and the people selling goods at the camp were pushy. They were trying to sell us things, while we were eating. Other than than it was an absolute joy, we'd recommend it anyday.

I do not recommend it. There are two tours, in the morning the mosque, they take you back to the hotel and at 3 pm they pick you up for the other activity. I thought it was all in one. the two drivers just drive and don't explain anything to you. Trip to the Mosque: it was like going in a taxi with 2 other people. The driver was punctual, he left us in line and waited for us at the exit to return. The safari:, a disaster. They picked us up in a 4x4 with all the upholstery torn. First they leave you in a place , a Camp,for 40 min!!! To wait, with the weather very hot, basically for you to buy. This is not in the detail, I lost 40 min start. dune ride: it's the only thing that was good. Then they take you back to the starting point for another 30 min to do nothing!!! we wait there, a place that is not even pretty. From there they take you to the camp: Camel ride is just for the photo, which they later sell you, there is no ride!!! sandboarding a joke, a single board and all broken that is lying in the sand. The barbecue is a buffe and a show that was fine.

I first went to the Grand Seik Zayed Grand Mosque then the Heritage Village. I visited the Emirates Palace Hotel and i ended the wonderful day at Ferrari World. Zahir was a wonderful tour guide as he explained everything and If I would go again, I would like to go with Zahir again.

Alyas was amazing! We enjoyed our time at the beautiful mosque and the camp was my favorite part. Do the Combo tour!!❤️ Can’t wait to bring our daughters back— we did this all with an infant!

This was a full day adventure that we would recommend to anyone. Our tour guide from RAH tourism, Aleem, was fantastic and had so much knowledge to share. There was a lot of travel involved, because we were staying in Dubai, but that didn’t hinder the amazing time we had. We left Dubai around 8:30 AM and traveled to Abu Dhabi for the tour of the Grand Mosque (about 1hr 15 min). We had a little extra time, so Aleem took us to a local museum/art gallery, the Miraj Museum, which was a nice little stop over. The Grand Mosque is epic….hot outside…..but epic. They blast AC inside though, which was nice. Ladies, be sure to cover head to toe! My sleeves didn’t go the whole way down to my wrists, but no fear! Aleem had a set of sleeves that he let me borrow. After we left there and got back to Dubai, we had about an hour or so before the trip to the desert was to leave, so Aleem recommended that we check out the Dubai Marina, so he dropped us off there and picked us up. It’s a great spot to grab a bite to eat, coffee and some pics. The desert safari tour was fantastic as well and so entertaining. We had to pick up a couple of other couples on the way, so it was about 1 hr 30 min by the time we got to the riding place in the desert. The dune bashing was actually done in a 4 wheel drive vehicle, which was great because it was so hot out, so the AC was welcomed. I didn’t know an SUV could move through/up and over sand dunes like that! Our driver was a wild man, and made it super fun. Then, they offer a quad ride as well, which some others in our group did, but it wasn’t included in our package, so we stayed back at this little market place. They had a couple of shops, refreshments, and a hut with AC. I got a scarf and the salesman helped me wrap it around my head in the traditional way. Once the rest of our crew got back, we drove about another 30 min to a spot in the desert where they set up an oasis/camp where the rest of the activities were for the remainder of the evening. Here we rode camels, tried sand boarding, ate dinner, and watched the shows. They also have a bunch of other things to do here (henna tattos, hookah lounge, photo ops), but we didn’t have time to do it all. For the seating, I would highly recommend getting a front row seat! They offer you to upgrade to AC huts, which we were thinking about doing, but I’m glad we declined. We got front row and the entertainment was amazing!!! All in all a fantastic day full of adventure and thanks to a great tour guide Aleem!

This tour was great! My husband and I enjoyed visiting the Grand Mosque in the morning and spending our evening at the desert. Staff was great and they were all very friendly. I mostly loved dune bashing and all the activities that were provided after (camel ride, sand boarding, etc). So many things to do in one place! The show was also amazing and the food was great. I highly recommend this tour.

Ali took us on an amazing day with morning trip to Abu Dhabi and afternoon and evening desert safari Lots of time to take pictures and helpful tips. Ali was always very thoughtful of our comfort and available for pictures creating some good moments. Morning visit of the Mosque was unforgettable, like visiting Palace hotel Desert evening was delightful with a handful of nice experiences Highly recommend this combo and Ali as a guide

This was a great experience. Zak was our guide for the day and very friendly. He picked us up from the hotel took us to the mosque in the morning. Conversation was fun and light. He walked us through the mosque doors and said he would be waiting in the car when we were ready. Afterwards he dropped us off back the hotel to change for the safari tour. Another nice ride, the ATV and sand duning were both a good time. Sand duning was a lot more adventurous than I expected but awesome. The camel ride was the least thrilling activity of the day. We walked in a curl or in the parking lot. The dinner was good, entertainment was ok. Overall I would recommend for the experience.

Really enjoyable, Abdul couldn’t do enough for us even returned my phone when I left it in the back of the car.

Tour was quite interesting and well-planed even half day. My guide Tasheen, picked up us from the hotel exactly in time. He explained to us to every places we visited. Tasheen was polite and he did a good job. I will engaged Rai Tourism again and request for Tasheen in future visit.

Highly recommended for RAH Tourism in dubai, our tourguide Mr Zahir is everything you can ask for in a complete abu dhabi and safari tour.. So fun to have him as our tourguide. We pray may Mr Zahir and your family be bless with peace, happiness & tranquility in this world and hereafter insyaallah..

Booked this Safari due to wanting to see the mosque and also do a desert safari. Our driver was very nice and helpful, explaining history and key facts. The day of our trip was torrential rain which made the roads around Dubai almost impassible. Because of this, the roads were jam packed and all of the motorways/freeways were backed up for miles with traffic. So the normally one hour journey to Abu Dhabi took us 4 hours. This mentioned the driver did his best trying different routes and went out of his way to get us there. He even remarked he had never seen weather and traffic like it. Even the motorways has accidents and were closed off - it was the worst luck. The bad thing was that by the time we arrived to Abu Dhabi, we only had 25 minutes to take pictures of the mosque - this was highly annoying as there is a queuing and register system which takes 15 minutes so essentially we had little time to enjoy. The driver though was really nice and it was not his fault as he wanted us to have all of the inclusions of the full day. Regardless of the 5 hour journey in the end before we arrived at our next stop again the driver was really nice and trying for us. I went on a desert safari years ago in the summer and it was nice, this time it felt rushed a little but essentially you get what you need and as it’s winter it gets really cold so I’m guessing this is why. The traffic and weather were nothing to do with the tour so based on customer service it was really good as the driver was lovely.

Stunning and unforgettable...you must have experienced. Especially the driver Ria was great and really stepped up at Dune 4x4

Wir haben uns sehr auf diesen Ausflug gefreut, insbesondere auf die Wüstensafari. Allerdings hat nur der erste Teil, der Besuch der Moschee stattgefunden. Was uns hier negativ aufgestoßen ist, ist das wir vor dem Besuch der Moschee an einem Museum/Verkaufsladen rausgelassen wurden. Hier wollte uns der Verkäufer irgendwelche Sachen andrehen. Dies hat uns nur Zeit gekostet und kam sehr unseriös rüber. Das Schlimmste jedoch ist, dass die Wüstentour nicht stattgefunden hat. Wir fragten unseren Fahrer, nach dem Besuch der Moschee, wie es jetzt weitergehen würde, aber er hatte keinerlei Ahnung davon, dass wir noch eine Wüstensafari inkludiert haben. Er hat uns dann wieder am Hotel rausgelassen mit dem Appell dem Tour-Operator zu schreiben. Dies haben wir getan, jedoch, seit jetzt 2 Tagen keine Rückmeldung erhalten. Auch vom Veranstalter Viator hieß es, wir sollen auf die Rückmeldung des Tour-Operators warten, da dieser jetzt für dieses Problem zuständig ist. Haltet euch lieber von diesem Veranstalter fern und bucht lieber eine etwas teurere Tour über GetyourGuide etc.. Wir hoffen, dass wir jetzt wenigstens unser Geld zurückbekommen!

Although the voucher stated that the pick-up time was 8:00, the guide showed up at the hotel at 9:30. I tried to contact the tour operator through the hotel concierge, but they didn't understand. I asked the late guide why he was so late, but he said that the pick-up time was 9:30, and didn't even apologize. I was put in the third row of the Land Cruiser to Abu Dhabi, which was very cramped. After the mosque tour, I returned to the hotel, and when I asked what time the next desert safari meeting was, he gave me a vague answer that he didn't know and that it was 15:00 or 15:30. I waited again in the hotel lobby from 15:00, and the guide showed up after 15:30. It was very unpleasant to waste precious travel time in the morning and afternoon on unnecessary waiting. While I was waiting, I sent messages to the tour operator through the Tripadvisor website many times, but there was no reply. Also, the seat belt of the car on the way back from the desert safari was broken. It was scary to drive at over 100km without a seat belt. The tour itself was good, as we could experience Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque and Desert Safari in one day. Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque was especially amazing as expected, so I recommend you to experience it. The Desert Safari was too commercial and not very satisfying. The guide was very friendly except for the late arrival, and lent me an abaya before entering the mosque, wrapped my scarf nicely as a hijab, and prepared cold water for me after visiting the mosque. However, I don't trust the tour company and Tripadvisor's system. There are many similar tours, so I recommend booking elsewhere.
