Excellent experience and great family time
Great afternoon and evening serving as an appetizer for future adventures in the desert! Nasir has been a fantastic guide, providing great insights on Dubai and offered an outstanding service quality. The experiences were numerous in a short amount of time, pleasing all family members. We also highly appreciated the communication and responsiveness of the team for organizing logistics as well as punctuality for pick up and drop off. A real good time that we would recommend.
VIP Desert Safari – A Must-Do in Dubai!
Our desert safari with the VIP BBQ dinner was absolutely incredible and one of the biggest highlights of our trip! From the moment we were picked up, everything was perfectly organized and seamless. The dune bashing was such a thrill — exciting, safe, and so much fun — and the desert views were breathtaking. The camp setup was beautiful and welcoming, and the VIP experience was 100% worth it. Having our own comfortable seating area and being served directly at our table made the evening feel relaxed and luxurious. The BBQ dinner was delicious with plenty of variety, and the service was outstanding — we never had to wait for anything. We also loved the live entertainment, camel ride, and the chance to take photos in the desert at sunset — truly unforgettable moments. The entire experience was the perfect mix of adventure, culture, and hospitality. Highly recommend this to anyone visiting Dubai — and if you’re considering the VIP upgrade, do it. It takes the whole experience to another level!
Ashraf was an absolute amazing host.
