Fun experience! - We really enjoyed our experience. Asif was a great guide and driver. We were picked up and there was a total of 6 in our vehicle. You will be taken to the first stop to ride ATVs. If you do not want to ride be prepared to sit and wait for the rest of the people in your party. There is also drinks and you can wait in a tent, which is what we did and the time passed quickly. Be prepared to be approached to buy items (scarves, food, necklaces). We left that areas and went to the desert which was really fun!!! Took a bunch of pictures and also could sand board. Then off to the camp which was so nice! We enjoyed the food and show.

Best option to kick of dubai trip - Had a great time as we visited on a weekday in Dec. Our tour guide was Osama, who got in touch before the day letting us know of the details. Very friendly guy. We took part in Dune bashing, Quad biking (must to experience), Sandboarding, Camel ride, dressing up in authentic clothes to have a picture taken while holding a Kestrel and BBQ at dinner. There are also other options such as Henna, camel feeding but it was not in our interest. I will recommend to book through Oceana travel, you won't be disappointed. We had another family with us, we enjoy each other's company. Osama made sure that we had a good laugh and beautiful experiences. Please do ask for questions, they are happy to help.

Most Recomended. M Sakr, hands down the best Guide. OCEANAIR, amazing! - The Best Ever experience in my life. Mohamed Sakr (M Sakr) was our guide for the day. He is undoubtedly the best, in terms of his professionalism, he ensures that we have an amazing experience. His expertise in Dune Bashing is totally worth it. We were picked up from Dubai Marina area on time, he drove us all the way to the Buggy area with some great Arabic music, giving so much information about the areas we passed through, he insisted on taking the Buggy ride, we had planned to skip initially. At the Buggy area, we got dressed up in our Arabic costume, had our refreshments. Buggy ride was adventurous, the deserts were fully to ourselves and the guide took us some lovely photos and videos of us while driving along with us. We had skipped it initially, but as we saw people enjoying it, we took our buggy too. Definitely NOT TO MISS. We were served with dates, tea and water all throughout the day. Later Sakr took us to Dune Bashing with sunset views. The experience was very different and thrilling. Hats off to his driving skills, ^ ^ he ensured our safety to the fullest while giving us some adrenaline rush!!! And then we went on some Sand boarding, sunset view photos and headed to Al Khayma Camps for the late evening and dinner. The Sunset in the desert was alluring. The Camel Safari ( we were allowed for multiple times) was so pleasing, though it’s a short ride, we can take it as many times as we want. Do not forget to feed the camels, they were so cute. For the dinner we were served with 3 cuisine meals, Arabian, Moroccan and Egyptian. Enjoyed them to bits. Then the BBQs ^_^. There were some Vegetarian options too. The Fire show, Dance performances were awesome while we were enjoying the post dinner feels with some chillers. Also had our Arabic henna done, photos with Falcons, some interesting souvenir shopping. Also tried Shisha. We also had our photographs taken by our guide and volunteers at OCEANAIR. And we were happily dropped back to our pick up locations safely. This experience is the most recommended. I’m vouching for this, after checking with a few of my friends who visited around the same time, and I’m extremely grateful for this. Thank you OCEANAIR and Mohamed Sakr 5 ⭐️ I wish you all enjoy a stupendous time at Desert Safari with OCEANAIR ! Habibi, enjoy Dubai with OCEANAIR and M Sakr !

Do yourself a favor and book - Lachen (our tour guide) was an absolute pleasure from the beginning. From picking us up from the hotel to the ride to the dunes and everything after was so planned so well. The sand dunes were absolutely stunning. The atv rides were a nice little surprise. The camp and shows were all such a wonderful experience would definitely recommend to anyone in Dubai

Experience of a lifetime! - The whole tour was amazing. Our tour guide Hamid was entertaining and accommodating, taking extra care to make sure we were comfortable. Dune bashing is crazier than roller coasters but should not be missed. Enjoying the red dunes and snapping amazing pics during sunset was the best. At Al Khayma camp, the environment transported us back in time to a more simpler era. The food was amazing (especially the chicken machboos) and we were able to take pics with a falcon! Henna tatto, Arabic coffee and amazingly clean accommodations. Our family will never forget this trip!

"Awesome" must do experience, but don't do it in June! - Really cool experience doing bashing. Our driver was fantastic. The food was incredible and the shows were awesome too! The downside was it was 1 million degrees out and because of that it seemed way longer than it actually was. The staff was incredible from the first time you met them at every station and booth that you presented to. Must do ride the camel.

Didn't quite live up to expectations - All the travel reports tell you that you can't visit Dubai without doing the trip into the desert. Personally I feel that there are much more interesting things to do in Dubai. The dunes weren't particularly impressive and the Al Khayma Camp was nothing more than the typical tourist attraction which you can find in other destinations. Everything that was advertised in the camp was included (camels, henna tattoo, hawk ...) and the BBQ was varied and plentiful but somehow the excursion didn't live up to expections.

Poor - 1.Driver , Good 2.Food , Good 3.sand Dune experience, poor 4, entertainment, poor Total experience for value of money paid , poor 5. Six passengers in one 4x4 if your seat is in the rear good luck. 6.i had to pay double the price to achieve a front passengers seat.

Tour operator excellent. Read above for the price gouging by Viator. Better to book directly with the tour operator. - The tour operator is excellent. But watch out and do not book through Viator. My friends found the exact same trip through another operator for 89 AED... multiple friends and their families. When I asked Viator, they just repeated "it's not the same" - an answer a 7- year- old would give not a professional tour platform.
