About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- D6631NO_0 contributionsKhalid was graet!!Wonderful activity. The best experience Was Khlid the driver, funny, helping and kind. Definitely recommend him. Thanks.Written 6 October 2024
- dzens20240 contributionsAll coolGauhar Ali the best driver. Attentive, accurate, told and showed everything. I recommend We were satisfied with everythingWritten 5 October 2024
- vigneshm3210 contributionsGood experienceWe booked for desert safari in booking.com app. Agency contacted us on WhatsApp and shared the driver details and timing one day before. It was a shared ride, so already one family was picked up by driver before picking us. If you have luck, you will be picked first and you shall occupy first and 2nd row. Driver Khalid picked us from our hotel on time (2:30pm) with 4x4. First, he took us to a place for ATV ride. We have not opted for ATV while booking. But after reaching there, we decided to try. ATV ride was little expensive AED250 for family bike - 2 Adult and 1 kid (Pls carry caps, sunglasses and water bottles, it will be very hot, shops will charge you more there. Restrooms were available). In this package, falcon pic is not included, we can take by paying additional there. Afterwards he drove for few minutes to take us inside desert and started Dune bashing, one of the best experience (20 to 30min) and then he stopped for Sand boarding. Sand boarding was good activity and driver Khalid himselves took many beautiful pics for us in that location. Later he took us to camp. It started with Camel riding for couple of minutes, that’s good enough to have experience and to take pics. We were given with local chai and snack at the entrance. Pls don’t expect delicious food in camp, it’s very moderate (buffet will be opened after 2nd show, but starter and coke will be available before start of show). If you wish, you shall upgrade to premium seating and cuisine after reaching camp by paying AED50/person. Fire, dance and tanoura show was good. Driver will stop for tyre inflation twice during the trip, since it is required. Finally he dropped us back to hotel around 9:30pm safely.Written 4 October 2024

- ganapathyp20240 contributionsAmazing dune bashing experienceWe had an absolutely amazing time dune bashing in Dubai, and it was all thanks to our incredible tour guide Zafar! From start to finish, he made the experience unforgettable. Zafar’s driving skills were top-notch, and he navigated the dunes with expert precision, giving us the perfect mix of thrills and fun while making sure we felt completely safe. He was also incredibly friendly and professional, taking the time to explain everything and answering all our questions about the desert and the experience. His warm personality and genuine care for our comfort made the trip even more enjoyable. If you’re looking for a thrilling, safe, and memorable desert adventure, I highly recommend requesting Zafar as your tour guide. Thanks again, Zafar, for an unforgettable day! 5 stars all the way!Written 4 October 2024

I expected a half day tour with the sites specified in the description. My tour turned into a much longer day until I clarified my intentions with the guide. Additionally the guide was really more of a "driver" as he provided minimal information en route to locations and was not part of the experience in the mosque. He also failed to introduce anyone in the shared tour which just made the experience awkward and not at all "premium."
Tips - be sure to ask what type of vehicle you should expect - I experienced an "SUV" which was compact for tall people and less than ideal in safety standards. Double check your itinerary with your driver before departure especially considering its supposed to be a shared tour.

I went to Dubai first time with my wife on her birthday. We warmly welcomed by Mr Akhtar Basra. He took us in our hotel first and in our four days he served us like a family member. He took us every famous visit points in our short stay. Because of good communication and comforting we made decision to go again to Dubai with my children. I love to thank to Mr Akhtar and Mr Bubbi.
