Amazing trip, our guide Ameer was very informative and easy to work with. They took a lot of photos and we will definitely book with them again! We did the sand bashing and camel ride. Both so much fun

Our guide Amir was EXCELLENT! Everything was on time as scheduled and the experience was beyond described! We had our own private bedouin tent where we enjoyed a nice breakfast by the desert! The camel ride was so relaxing we even got the chance to hold the Falcon! The whole staff were so attentive and kind! We will definitely do more activities with the company in the future! Thank you Amir !

Full description

Your exciting Abu Dhabi off-road desert excursion begins at the time of your pickup in the morning. Head to the desert in an air-conditioned 4x4 Land Cruiser jeep and ride on the sand dunes. Admire the golden sand and desert scenes under the hot sun. Watch the magnificent sand patterns and ride over the dunes to explore the hidden beauty of the harsh Abu Dhabi desert.

For those who prefer more adrenaline-rushing adventures, try sandboard surfing. Climb the golden sand dunes and feel the silky sand and dry desert breeze as you go down the dunes.

Finish your excursion with a ride on a camel. Gaze at the enchanting views of the Abu Dhabi desert and experience the rhythmic sway of the camel ride. Relax and look for the horizon to capture the beautiful view of where the desert and sky meet.

I liked the organisation: the pick up was at exactly scheduled time, all notifications arrived on time. Our driver Khalid is very professional: I felt confident and safe. The car was good as well. The camel drive was nice and smooth, almost relaxing) The kids enjoyed sand boarding.
