Perfect. - An incredible experience to be close to the desert. Quite feasible with family with two children aged 4 and 5. Everyone on the site is smiling, friendly and comfortable. Everything was perfect and well organized: camel ride, meal, quality show, and overnight tent/excellent breakfast.
I had a problem booking for the night and Oceanair Travels was very responsive and found us a solution.
I recommend without hesitation!

Unforgettable Bedouin Desert Adventure - If you’re looking for an unforgettable desert experience near Dubai, this Bedouin adventure is a MUST! We spent the night in a super comfortable tent right in the heart of the desert, which was cozy, private, and beautifully designed to make you feel like you were stepping back in time while still enjoying modern comfort.
The highlight of the evening was tea and freshly baked bread made right in front of us over an open fire.
The local dishes were a real treat—so full of flavor and served in the most welcoming way. The performances were a blast, including the stunning Arabian horses mesmerizing us. We also had the chance to dress up in traditional local attire, which added a fun, immersive touch to the whole experience.
A special shoutout to our guide, Zaheer, who went above and beyond to make sure our time there was nothing short of perfect. He even woke up early just to arrange our camel ride in the sunrise! Zaheer’s passion for sharing the culture and ensuring we had a fantastic time made all the difference.
Highly recommend making this a must-do experience on your Dubai itinerary.

Great People at Oceanair and Al Marmoom Campsite -
Mr. Faizal from Oceanair picked us up promptly and made sure we had the best possible experience during our desert adventure.
The SUV ride was smooth and enjoyable. Mr. Faizal personally guided us and ensured our quad bike ride was both safe and fun. He also assisted with sandboarding, patiently helping anyone who wanted to give it a try. He ensured we stick to our schedule so we don't miss the sunset. He even pre ordered lemony corn in a cup to share.
At the Al Marmoom campsite, we enjoyed camel rides at both sunrise and sunset! The dinner spread was a royal feast, with 21 different dishes. The entertainment shows were fun, and the tent accommodations were comfortable, offering a peaceful night’s sleep. The henna tatoo artist was so skilled that she could finish one hand in 2 minutes. The only thing that disappointed us was missing the stargazing which ended too early.
Anwar, the camel guide, was excellent and very patient! He made our sunrise camel ride unforgettable. Both Anwar and the falcon handler were great, providing us with Instagram-worthy pictures!
Zaheer Mehboob was also fantastic. He constantly checked in to ensure we had enough tea and weren’t hungry. His grilled corn, popcorn, pipping hot milk teas were delicious! He made sure we were well-fed and treated like royalty. Zaheer is not only friendly but also great at photography. Just before we left, he made sure we double-checked our tents to avoid leaving anything behind.

Meeting at the Middle: An Impactful Arabian Cultural Experience - In a statement, I would say that this was the most immersive and comprehensive dubai experience! I definitely felt the spirit of travel and hospitality in a trip.
To have Lucky as our tour guide was an honor and blessing to our experience. We were able to get a glimpse of the safari, sunset, sand dunes all in the day, as well as astonishing performances and cultural meals.
My personal favorite was all the rides, both the 4x4 and the camel ride! From the photographers to the staffs, the people were accommodating and understanding which made our experience comfortable. It was the best and I would bring my friends over to do it all over again.

Great experience. Our guide, Lucky was very cool and accomodating. - We had a great experience. We had so much fun in the desert. Our guide, Lucky was very cool and accomodating. He granted all out requests especially with the “photoshoot”. We loved the food and the shows were also fun. The camel ride, though short, was very funny. Everything was unexpected. It is a good experience for travelers/tourists.
