About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- jeffsI1399DQ0 contributionsDesert Safari Rip-off (Booked Through Expedia)Booked through Expedia - Most of this tour did not match the description - it was a complete rip-off: - "Dune bashing for 45 minutes" was a 5 minute ride crammed in the 3rd row seat and the driver did not give time to even fasten seatbelts - "Photoshoot with Falcon" was available but only by paying $5 additional - "Camel Ride" was < 1-minute on a camel unless you paid $10 additional for an actual ride - "Sandboarding" was not available at all - Driver refused to pick up at the cruise ship terminal and made us take an $8 taxi ride to the local fish market to be picked up Completely unsatisfied - Expedia should remove this tour and not do business with this tour operator who also does business as "Luxury Adventures" and as "arabiantripsdubai.com" according to the business card provided to us at the event site. The BBQ dinner staff told us that they had over 1,000 people attending (which appeared to be true by the crowd) and encouraged us to pay about $50 additional for "premium seating" and a smaller buffet line.Written 30 December 2023
- akosua6920 contributionsGreat and memorable experienceFor starters we would not have booked this tour as previous reviews put us off. The whole experience is actually based on the driver/ your guide. So you have to pray for a good one which by grace we did get an excellent person- ShajiKalesh- God bless him. He had the greatest patience and helped us cover all the tall list we planned and more. That is most of the famous landmarks. We got out of the car to take billions of pics. We were a team of 5 with one 14 year old special needs daughter who was not great at walking fast and yet still able to achieve all we planned. Great experience and we recommend this tour to everyone but first pray for a good guide that would be sent out to you so you can be more comfortable to assist you on your other planned activities for the rest of your stay.Written 13 August 2023
- Emmanuel S0 contributionsDubai Private City TourMuhammad was an excellent guide & driver! Saw so many sights like Burj Al Arab, Burj Khalifa, and the Dubai Mall!Book him if you can.Written 14 July 2023
- luissX5005AI0 contributionsNot recomendedLate pick-up from our hotel. Driver did not speak English and on a bad mood. City tour does not take to Atlantis Hotel. On the way back, they droped us at Dumai Mall, without transfer to The hotels. Not recomended!Written 14 May 2023
- Celestial G0 contributionsWorst Tour We HadThe worst city tour we have experienced. The driver who was supposed to be the guide also was 45 minutes late. He was just a driver but definitely cannot a guide because he does not speak English. We thought we booked this tour with Noor Al Hayat Tourism through TripAdvisor but the driver who showed up identified himself by another agency name. I asked if he’s from Noor and he said no when he approached me. So he went out of the hotel door and texted me to find out who he was supposed to be touring. My cell picked up so that’s how we found out he was our tour. As a driver, he was good. As a guide??? He did not know a thing nor could he converse with us in English. We couldn’t wait to get rid of him but we needed to get around so we needed him as a driver. I have never been stirred in the wrong direction using TripAdvisor reviews before. I have been around the globe a few times and TripAdvisor is one of my go-to resources but now I have experienced 3 bad ones that I have booked through them. All of these operators were in the Middle East. The language barrier and unqualified guides seem to happen more in this region. TripAdvisor/Viator need to step up and do checking & screening on tours & operators they list or their credibility will suffer. Buyer beware. I am asking TripAdvisor now if they screen the tours and tour operators listed on their site because this was not the only operator that subcontracts to another that I have experienced. So you think you’re hiring a tour or operator based on good reviews you’ve read about them only to find out, it might be somebody else who will show up!Written 16 February 2023
- 981fathimajazza0 contributionsAn amazing dayI loved the desert safari .It was well planned and it had an amazing guide. He was trained and cooperate.Written 31 January 2023
- Paul F0 contributionsTerrific Tour of DubaiAn excellent overview of Dubai in one day with a very knowledgeable and eager to please guide, Raman, who went out of his way to help us see sights that were not on the normal itinerary. Having lived in Dubai in the late 1970’s we were eager to see the old Clock Tower roundabout and the Creek area. The tour brought back some wonderful happy memories!!Written 24 January 2023
- davidwF7814ES0 contributionsThis is the way to see DubaiOur guide Ramon was excellent and the service allowed us to set the itinerary but they wanted extra payment to take us to everything we had on our list even though the whole itinerary was in town and completed in the 8-hour allotment. The guide was very accommodating to my handicapped wife.Written 18 January 2023
- TFINOC0 contributionsRehman is the BEST guide ever! Can’t wait to come back to Dubai and hire him again.Rehman was a fantastic tour guide! Waiting for us as we stepped off the cruise ship and took us on an amazing full day tour of Dubai. Great knowledge of the city, the history of the city, and key spots to stop at. Best guide we had on our trip. Answered all of our questions, personalized our tour and helped us find the best bargains in the city. Really enjoyed meeting him!Written 13 January 2023
- chaidaokueh0 contributionsTerrible, bad service, scammy and shouldn’t be on TripAdvisorThe car they provided did not have working seat belts, and there were dirty looking tears on the upholstery. It gets worse- We were only provided a driver even though we specifically ordered and paid for a private tour. When we contacted the tour company, they insisted the driver was a tour guide, even through the driver himself said he’s not a guide and was only there to fetch us to the places we wanted. He could not tell us anything about any of the sights and even brought us to the wrong place when we asked, and insisted it was the right place even after we checked on google maps. After which he grudgingly asked if we wanted him to bring us to that place instead. By the time we had wasted so much time. Only after hours of reasoning, then arguing with the tour company did they tell us they would give us a partial refund. This company is potentially running a scam and I urge all buyers to take note and beware. I was this close to calling the police on them in Dubai. They spoilt my holiday and wasted my only full day in Dubai. I do not recommend and hope karma gets them. They do not deserve to stay in business. This is the first time I’ve had such a horrible experience using TripAdvisor’s booking service. I urge you to do a check on them as they were clearly trying to scam us and provide less than what was promised!Written 7 January 2023
- HP-MM0 contributionsA Great Day in DubaiWe booked the full day private tour and were picked up at our hotel by our guide who was very knowledgeable, charming and easy to understand. There are a large number of stops and many areas visited. A very interesting day in a beautiful city. The vehicle was comfortable and water was provided. There was time worked into the schedule for us to get lunch and do a little exploring on our own. Our guide was good at answering any questions. We will always look back fondly on our tour as it gave us a real view of the many area of a beautiful city. I highly recommend this tour and our young energetic Pakistani guide.Written 19 December 2022
- 219wimp0 contributionsDisappointed tour. Lot worth the moneyWe had high expectations on this tour to have a good overview of Dubai and have some more inside information about the town. However our tour was very disappointing. Our Indian guide Nirshad wasn’t very talkif at all. His English was hard to understand He didn’t follow the programme as described on the voucher First stop was Atlantis where he gave us 30 minutes to go inside and look at the aquarium. However the waiting q for tickets was half an hour so we just saw the entrance of the hotel. Next stop was Burj al Arab for a quick photostop. Next beach La Mere where almost everything was closed. A ladie at the icecreamstation mentioned that the beach wil closing down for maintenance. Our driver was not aware of this information and was not interested into it. I m sure he will bring next guests to same closed place. Next was a one hour visit at the shouks without any explanation what you would expect from a guide. Then we drove to Dubai mall where we had three hours to visit the aquarium and Burj al Kalifa tower where he advised us to take tickets for the elevator. But this time is to short for having proper lunch buy tickets and visit. Next we had a stop at Dubai frame for half an hour but also here waiting was one hour for entrance so after some photos of the outside we drove to Za abeel place where he couldn’t tell more about the palace. Overall we better took a normal taxi to go to all those places an read a cityguide…it would have beeen less expensive. Tip before making this tour is to book tickets in advance and tip for touroperator is to invest in some proper guiding lessons for his employees so they know what to tell aboutWritten 4 November 2022
- Jasleen_Singh0 contributionsGreat way to explore Old and New DubaiMy Family had a great day trip with Rahman. Went around different places with ample time for pictures. Got great suggestions for shopping places at souq and having lunch at Bayt Al Waqeel with the view of the moving abras around us. Covered JBR, Marina, Al Seef, Spice and Gold Souk, Dubai Frame, Palace, Atlantis (The Pointe), Jumeirah Beach, Palm Jumeirah and saw much more on the way as well. Would definitely suggest this tour for touring Dubai by road 👍Written 15 October 2022
- 420ishai0 contributionsUnforgettable experienceWe suggest this activity to everyone. It was spending our day together with jimshad. He was always chekking with us to make sure we were having fun, the dune bashing was exciting and amazing experience. We like very much all activities in this travel specially the red dunes. Camel ride, henna tattoo, belly dance and food was excellent. I can only recomend this company when traveling to DubaiWritten 1 September 2022
