A definite must-try in Abu Dhabi! - Salaam was an amazing and helpful guide, and a great driver! We opted for the morning safari as we had limited time on our transit. Salaam was very punctual and communicative, and made sure we felt comfortable and safe throughout. He’s an amazing photographer who taught us how to pose too!

Fantastic. - Quiet but interesting feel the desert Without noise if you don't pass the safari cars the dromedaries are quiet and it seems to be on a ship descending from a dune you have to keep but it's just a nice experience

100% Highly Reccomend for a short layover - We did the private Dune Bashing & Camel Riding Safari Tour during a long layover in Abu Dhabi. 100% reccomend for anyone with a few hours to kill. Salaam our driver/guide was absolutely great, professional and great at taking some photos for us. All in all with collection from the airport and drop off it was around 4-4.5 hours. Thanks again Salaam!

- The camels were gentle giants, and it was hilarious seeing some of my friends struggle to get on them 😂. The whole group had a great time, and the sunset views were breathtaking.

A solid way to unplug - Guide knew his stuff, and he let me take pics and even taught me a few Bedouin phrases. Only downside The saddle's not exactly a couch expect some soreness after. Worth it for the peace and those unreal desert views.

Memorable Camel Trek - The camels were gentle and well taken care of, and our guide was super kind, explained everything, and even helped us get some great photos. It wasn’t rushed at all, and the sunset made it extra magical. If you're looking for something calm and authentic away from the crowd, this is it. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip.

Private camel trek - It took about an hour's drive to get to the camels - driver was great - very informative and easy to talk to. There were 2 camels waiting. The main issue was the lack of padding on the saddle - I could feel the metal bars on my seat bones and on my back behind me - definitely needs padding better. The 2 camels were wanting to bite each other throughout, but generally settled between times. The trek was a decent length, about an hour and a quarter and so peaceful over the dunes. The guide took my phone and continually took videos and photos on it which was helpful, but I had my bank cards in the phone holder and I was a little concerned they might fall out - they didn't. After, I was allowed to look round the new site being developed - a traditional Bedouin settlement for tourists to stay at - it looked quite authentic. If the saddle and backrest had been better padded, I would have given it 4 or 5 stars.
