Epic desert experience - Oh man, today we experienced this epic sand duning adventure in Abu Dhabi, and it was straight-up thrilling-like a rollercoaster in the middle of nowhere! We kicked things off with the dune bashing in a beefy 4x4, bouncing over those massive golden waves till my heart was pounding. Total adrenaline rush, but our driver kept it safe and fun, no wipeouts. Then we hit the traditional camp-rode camels, and tried sandboarding too, zooming down a steep slope on a board. The henna artist hooked me up with this design on my hand, and we snapped pics in those traditional outfits. There was also a majestic Falconry to take pics with us, and don’t get me started on the dinner: juicy grilled meats, fresh salads, and unlimited soft drinks and Tea and coffee under the stars. Topped it off with belly dancing and a couple other performers-pure energy! Whole thing ran smooth, about four hours, and worth every penny for that authentic desert magic. If you’re in Abu Dhabi, book it-you won’t regret ditching the city for the sands. Five stars!

Besides, he took a lot of pictures and is a great professional. I recommend it 100x100. Thank you again.

Fantastic Desert Safari – Brilliant Guide and Driver! - We had an amazing evening on the Abu Dhabi Desert Safari – the highlight of our trip! Our guide Isar was absolutely fantastic – highly professional, friendly, and an exceptional driver. His dune bashing skills were incredible – thrilling yet smooth – and made the experience unforgettable. The camel ride and BBQ dinner were great additions, but it was Isar’s expertise and attention to detail that really made the tour special. Highly recommend this excursion – and if possible, ask for Aris!

Layover Excursion Fun - This by far is a must do activity. We had a 19 hour layover and this was one of the activities we chose to do. Marley was a great tour host. He did everything to make us comfortable. Vehicle was very clean. Every part of this excursion was well worth the money if not more. Be ready for a great time

Best experience- must try!! - From the moment our tires hit the sand, this experience was nothing short of epic. Our driver was incredibly skilled and had a deep knowledge of the desert. The adrenaline rush as we tore through the golden dunes, tilting at wild angles and catching air on the peaks, was absolutely exhilarating! The views were straight out of a dream—endless waves of sand glowing under the setting sun, with bursts of wind kicking up dust in the most cinematic way possible. We paused at a dune crest for photos, and I swear it looked like something off a movie poster. After the ride, we enjoyed traditional Arabic coffee, dates, henna painting, yummi food and nice belly dancing! The trip ended with a peaceful moment watching the stars, surrounded by silence and nature’s raw beauty. Whether you’re a thrill-seeker or just want to experience the magic of the desert, this dune bash was an unforgettable highlight of my trip. 10/10 would recommend. Don’t leave the UAE without doing this!
