An awesome desert experience - Shafeeeq was a great driver, friendly guide and an awesome photographer. The experience exceeded our expectations: fun dune riding, meeting and riding the camels, sandboarding, a pleasant dinner, an amusing performance and more activities in the camp, included in the price. Thank you!

Unforgettable Safari: A Must-Do Experience! - An unforgettable experience with Salam, who was an exceptional guide!! The tour, the dunes, the show... everything was perfect and far exceeded our expectations! Thrills were guaranteed during the 4x4 desert crossing, with magnificent landscapes and a show that transported us back in time. Our guide made our excursion exceptional. Salam went far beyond our expectations and made this experience one of the most beautiful memories of Abu Dhabi! A huge thank you to Salam for his kindness and hospitality! A must-do if you're looking for an excursion, ask for Salam. Thank you so much for everything Salam !

One of the best experiences in Abu Dhabi - This is probably the highlight of our work trip. We are all first-time visitors here and after our conference, we contacted Aladdin and he was proactive and responsive. His team was very helpful and he took really good photos and videos!

Amazing desert adventure - An absolutely fabulous evening with so much packed in. Firstly the pickup was seamless, excellent communication and contact beforehand and our driver Sajid Babu was bang on time. The vehicle (Land Cruiser) was extremely comfortable and spacious. Journey to the desert very comfortable. First activity dune bashing. Very fun and impressive driving. One of our party not great with sudden motion and the experience tailored for her with sajid constantly checking if everyone ok. Then stop at a camel farm for a photo shoot with a very friendly camel, lots more photos and chill time in the desert then into camp which is splendid. The camel ride was short but fun. The sand boarding was really fun, then lots of others activities- henna painting, traditional dress, falconry, unlimited water, paid (but very reasonably priced) soft drinks and alcohol. Free Snacks (delicious felafel). Then the shows- a male dancer who was amazing, then buffet dinner- very tasty and plenty of food. Also queue very well organised. Then belly dancer who was pretty good, then the finale of two extremely brave and skilled fire performers. Very impressive and entertaining. Finish with some stargazing and the drive home. This was such an amazing evening. To top it all Sajid was the most wonderful photographer- he must have taken 70-80 photos and videos, he had a real talent for capturing moments and some of his photos will definitely be blown up and put in frames. I would very highly recommend this tour, it’s not only an amazing experience it is phenomenal value for money.

Thank you Marly - I will be recommending to any friends visiting Abu Dhabi :)
