Popular Desert Safaris in Abu Dhabi

This activity was without a doubt the highlight of our stay in Abu Dhabi/Dubai. Our guide Munir was pretty silent, but a great driver and helpful whenever we needed him or asked something. After Munir came to pick us up, we started our trip to the desert outside of Abu Dhabi. First of all, we saw a few camels at a camel farm and took some pictures with them. Afterwards, Munir started driving through the sand dunes. This activity felt like an amazing rollercoaster and with Munir's driving skills we never had the impression of being in any danger. We did a stop in between the two parts of the dune driving to take a few pictures in the middle of the desert. After the dune driving, we went to a traditional Arabian camp where we drove a quad through the dunes ourselves and ate a semi-traditional buffet. Unfortunately, there were no dancers or music due to Ramadan. We also had other activities at the camp, like wearing traditional garments, sandboarding, shisha smoking, etc.

Our guide was Biju, wow what an amazing human being. Always communicating important information to us so we never lost in the desert, we knew exactly what was coming up all the way on this excursion, I like that he was on time too. Biju is very helpful and very considerate, hot as it is in he made sure that we are always taking water , you know like a mother carrying for her family. The dune ride was mind-blowing. The highlight for me was when my camera ran out of storage he captured beautiful memories for me and sent to me, thank you, this experience was worth every penny.

The trip has exceeded our expectations. Our driver was so professional and approachable, very helpful and has helped us to take some incredible photos. The buffet dinner had an excellent choice of foods and the entertainment was excellent. We went during the month of Ramadan and we still didn’t feel like missed out on anything, the shows provided at the dessert were very good good and well thought through. Fantastic value for money, nothing negative to add - we can’t recommend this tour enough!

Our guide Hamza was prompt, professional and friendly. The vehicle was clean and air conditioned. The dune bashing was exhilarating but we felt safe with Hamza at the wheel. During the sabdboarding Hamza was a patient teacher and we all had great fun. The day was finished with camel riding and trying some traditional clothing. At no time were we rushed or pressured into doing anything. This trip made great memories for our family and would highly recommend it.

This is a fantastic safari which my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed. Imran our driver was great and an extremely skilful dune driver, albeit scary at times but exciting. Everything about this safari was exceptionally well done and represented very good value, plus hotel pick up and return was convenient. There was nothing I could fault about the entire safari.
