    Excellent and very well run adventure to the desert. Especially liked the 4x4 driving around the sand dunes, followed by an evening of great entertainment and food. Our driver and guide Abdullah was exceptional, great fun to be with and full of local facts about UAE culture. Nothing was too much to ask him or for him to do for us. Highly recommend this trip especially for more senior citizens like us. Eamon & Elizabeth.

    Nice entertaining half-day trip, but absolute mass tourism. An approx. one-hour drive through Dubai to the general meeting point, where you can also drive a quad (extra costs). Then about 20 minutes to dune bashing with a nice sunset photo stop. The final barbecue was touristy but still tasty. The price for alcohol in the camp is reasonable for Arabic standards. The sandboarding behind the camp has been great fun for kids and teens. The camel ride should be abolished, pure animal cruelty.
