Worst Dubai Safari Experience – Overpriced with Poor Service

We booked this safari package through our hotel counter, and it turned out to be one of the costliest and worst experiences of our entire trip. Overpriced & Misleading: The package felt hugely overpriced for what was actually offered. Many items at the stop-over shops were ridiculously priced — for example, a souvenir bottle or Burj Khalifa-themed bottle cost over 250 AED, while the same item is just 35 AED in Old Dubai. A simple Ghutra was 60 AED, compared to only 10 AED locally. Activities Were Underwhelming: The camel ride was literally just 2 minutes — the camel walked only about 10 steps, and if you wanted more, you had to pay extra. Holding a bird cost 20 AED per person. The henna and tattoo service barely covered anything; they only wrote your name instead of doing a proper design. Food Was Terrible: The BBQ buffet was extremely limited, tasteless, and crowded. Guests had to make multiple trips to even get a small amount, and overall the dining experience was chaotic and frustrating. Transport Issues: Our car had a brake problem, which delayed us significantly. Thankfully, our honest driver, Ali, quickly arranged a replacement, but we were still the last ones to leave the campsite. The Few Positives: The only positive aspects were our honest and helpful driver Ali, and the dance & fire show at the camp. Overall: We strongly do not recommend this safari package. It is overpriced, poorly organized, and most activities feel like a scam to extract more money from tourists.

Give this a miss !!

This was a disappointing experience after an excellent Abu Dhabi tour the previous day. In a nut shell, it was over priced, overrun with hoards of people, poorly managed dinner mayhem, very confronting and not enjoyable. Dinner should have started at 6.30, not 7pm !! The music volume so loud, you could not talk. Of course, the whole over commercialisaion, with so many other 'camps' with so many thousands of people, it has killed what could be an enjoyable, unique experience.

Amazing

We had an amazing tour with Rayna Tours. The desert safari was excellent, and they have their own camps (two camps), which made the experience even better. Our driver was very friendly and professional. We chose the Platinum package, and the food was definitely worth it — much better quality. A special thanks to Fariha, who was great at assisting us with the booking and giving helpful recommendations. Overall, it was an amazing experience, and we will definitely book again with Rayna Tours.
