Big Day Out - We only had a couple of days in Dubai so wanted to experience as much as we could. So must sees were Abu Dhabi and a run out to the desert. I made contact with an agent (janine) who helped us find the perfect trip. We were picked up by our driver and taken out to abu dhabi. A magical visit to the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque such a beautiful structure. Then off to the Emerates Palace for a look see. Went to heritage village but was extremely hot by this time so didn't stay too long. After a couple of other stops we headed out to start our desert tour. After a long wait we were let down by the 4 wheel drive experience. We were taken out into the desert and promptly dropped off after less than 5 mins. We waited in the heat of the desert for about 20 mins not knowing what was going on. We then had someone arrive on a quad bike who told us the car had a flat tyre and we would have to wait another 20 mins!! My husband basically said no thanks get us someone now. Sadly this part of the experience was a let down. When we finally got picked up we were taken straight back to the start. We then headed out to the camp gor our BBQ meal. We upgraded to the buffet style meal which was well worth the money! We enjoyed the show snd experience. Our day ended with our driver who was lovely dropping us back to the hotel! We had a huge day which we really enjoyed. They may just need to change their 4 wheel car people. Besides that it was a great experience!

Overall a very great experience - Review of the Abu Dhabi Tour and Desert Safari Overall, the Abu Dhabi tour and desert safari were a great experience. Our guide Jaiswal was excellent—very professional and knowledgeable. The city tour of Abu Dhabi was well-organized, and we got to see everything that was listed in the description, which we really appreciated. In the evening, the desert safari was also a fantastic experience—, the atmosphere was very enjoyable. However, the reason I didn’t give 5 stars is the excessive wait time to reach the final location in the desert. We had to wait 1.5 hours before getting into a Jeep, while other participants seemed to be transported much more quickly. I’m not sure if this happens every night, but it was frustrating for this particular excursion. Overall, it’s a good activity—well-organized and interesting—but the waiting time could have been better managed.
