UNFORGETTABLE!!.. absolutely MUST DO in Dubai! - Such a wonderful time and experience in Dubai! Perfect organization, nice camp, great activities with fantastic 5-star guide Mansoor!!.. so professional, informed, real expert driver, nice and caring for every single detail (even best picture shots thanks to him :-)! Dune bashing was awesome, lots of fun with sandboarding, nice dinner and quite pleasant evening with dance performances, henne painting, shisha smoking.. The overnight option was a real plus, which made it all the more authentic and unique: we were only 5 left that night and spent a delightful evening around the fire with Mansoor, Abdul and fascinating Mohammed Ali with his falcon, telling stories, tasting mint tea and local delicious "luquaimat" (thanks for the recipe.. could have some cooked back in Rome, almost as tasty :-), smoking shisha,.. Good price for value. Thanks again so much to all for making our trip to Dubai memorable!!
