This made our trip to Dubai even better - We had Shajahan As our driver and made our Amazing the kids loved the sand bashing. He even dropped us off to a Quad place so the kids could have a go on their own. Highly recommend this tour I know it was a bit more expensive than some of the others, but definitely worth the experience

Dunes by the sunset - The most amazing trip of my life. We were picked up right on time by our kind and wonderful guide Muqtadir Shah. After several minutes of driving we got to the beautiful orange sanded dunes. On route there were many ups and downs with sand going all over our car. We also got a break for some photos with the picturesque view for the surrounding area. Later on We headed to the camp, where we could ride a camel and quad, do some sandboarding and See a falcon show. At the end We had an amazing dancing shows originating from UAE combined with tasty and well prepared dinner. During the way to the desert and back our guide told us much about many UAE life aspects. Definitely worth going, than you Muqtadir&Desert Gate!!!!!

A MUST for Visiting Dubai - This is a MUST DO when coming to Dubai. Includes jeep riding in the sand dunes, camel rides, a falcon show, a main show, and delicious Mediterranean style food. All jeeps are equipped with AC which makes it easy to beat the heat. We we’re able to take great pictures at the top of the sand dunes. (For those who experience motion sickness take something to help with it because the sand dunes can make people feel queasy; our driver was very nice about slowing down and driving more gentle as one of us easily experiences motion sickness) Pictures taken by our wonderful driver Ayaz who was kind, patient, professional, and informative. He even helped us fix our head scarf multiple times as the wind kept blowing it out of place. We upgraded to VIP and it was well worth the private driving and service. The falconer and henna artist came to our cabana first before starting at their stations which was a great way to relax without waiting in a line and walking through the heat. Definitely upgrade to VIP if you’re wondering if you should. There are photographers there who take pictures for you at the camel rides. Definitely buy them! Great souvenirs.

Excellent - Fantastic evening at the desert. Our driver Naimat made us feel safe the whole time and was very knowledgeable. We experienced a camel ride, dune bashing, falcon show, traditional dress and then an evening BBQ which was delicious. Naimat looked after me and my mum extremely well and would definitely recommend this as a must do when visiting Dubai. We were picked up and dropped off at hotel and nothing was too much to ask. Naimat went above and beyond to ensure we had the best time, he is a credit to the company.

Dune bashing and dinner in camp. - Was booked by the hotel. Felt safe throughout. Vireh nice car driven by Ayaz. Took us first to a place for “dune bashing” and some quad biking. Lovely picture. We were there taken to a camp. It was followed by camel ride. A dance performance by belly dancer and other dancers. Food was of good quality included various meat and vegetarian options. Soft drinks were included. A falcon show. Picked up at 4 and back to hotel for about 9:30. Ayaz was a lovely courteous driver who looked after well.

A taste of desert... - A beautiful desert experience an hour and a half from Dubai. Ride through the dunes in 4x4, camels, falcons, show and good dinner buffet. Recommendation to book it directly and not through a hotel like us... because we paid much more! Thanks to the Naimet Guide who accompanied us all the time!
