Great Desert Adventure - We had a great time spending a night in the desert. Our guide (Imran) was wonderful and very attentive to all of our needs. He took care of us during the day and for the star gazing then Druba took care of us during the night ensuring that we had everything that we needed (including towels to take a shower). The gentleman who performed the "fire dance" was absolutely AMAZING. This is a must-do tour if you visit Dubai. A first-class experience!

Mansoor is very knowledgeable, he cared for everyone s safety and made sure we enjoyed our tour. Everything arranged went smoothly, good communication with the guide, on time pickup and drop off, snacks and great dinner, great shows, restrooms were clean and well ventilated, camps had bean bag and air cooled, overnight camps were properly air conditioned, the activities were fun but the highlight is definitely the amazing hospitality. The customer service is top notch! I definitely recommend this tour to anyone who wants to experience desert. Thank you!

A dream - The experience was fantastic as was our guide Mansoor Manz. We enjoyed the quad experience but the best was the camp in the desert, the camel ride, the spectacles, the sunset, the dinner. I could't say anything negative cause everyone was so kind. We reccomend it without any doubt.
