Private and authentic desert experience - Authentic desert experience, different from the usual excursions for tourists.
We had booked for the two of us and thought we were with other people instead it was basically a private tour. You really taste the essence of the desert and being small in the middle of nowhere and the immensity of the fourth void. (Years before we had done desert Safari in Dubai that cost half this but you found yourself in the desert sharing with other equivalent excursions and so many other people, making the dunes like dozens of other jeeps around and queuing up to take pictures on the camel.)
Here instead it is a real private tour and if you want also customized to your needs ! (For example on the way back we were stopped to see the fort of liwa which was not in the program but we had asked for it.)
After tours with the land rover on the dunes and sand boarding they left us totally alone to watch the sunset and nightfall. Then they came to pick us up to make us have a typical dinner at a nearby oasis, even there ‘they left us completely alone. The times were also very dilated compared to the schedule (perhaps even too much because at one point it was hard not to go to the bathroom until the car grill of the return trip). The two guys are very nice and friendly guides and also skilled photographers and video makers!
If you're lucky you can see gazelles like us.
The destination of Liwa is very far from Abu Dhabi (about 2 hours) but it is worth it!

Highlight of our Abu Dhabi trip! - So happy to be able to join this tour!
Liwa desert is quite different from Dubai desert. Its characteristic red colour and vast expanse of dunes, which were breathtakingly beautiful…I do believe it was definitely right choice to join this tour!
You guys were great/funny guides! We had so much fun❤️ I wonder how can you drive in trackless desert…Such a pro!

Exceptional desert experience, not to be missed! Very kind and super helpful staff! ! - It's not your usual pre-packaged, commercial tour just a few miles from Abu Dhabi. It's in the inner desert of the United Arab Emirates, not far from Saudi Arabia. The dunes are very high, you have fun with jumping on the dunes with the off-road, making steep descents, and you let yourself slide with a surfboard. You can admire the sunset in the dunes. You have lunch in a palm grove with typical local foods. There are guys from Oman and nice Indians, helpful and well prepared. Experience to be had at least once in a lifetime. The price is extremely competitive compared to similar trips to the Liwa Desert.

The best tour - One of the best tours I’ve ever joined! The view was just spectacular and I felt like I was on the another planet. Mohammed is a knowledgeable driver and great photographer. I will recommend this tour someone likes adventures and can’t be satisfied with typical sightseeing places. It’s worth going and you will never regret. I will definitely join his tour again when I come back to Abu Dhabi next time, hopefully sometime soon!

Amazing, don’t miss out on an incredible experience 😊 - I had Mohammed as a guide and he was so kind, friendly, attentive and professional. Talk to him, you will learn things. He knows the best dunes to admire an unforgettable sunset. On top of that, he is an excellent photographer. You can count on him and the Aladdin Adventure agency.
We did the empty neighborhood with magnificent fairly high dunes (a change from safaris in Dubai), then a Photoshop at the camel farm, then a break at the Faisalallah oasis (magnificent with the date palms and dunes in the background ). Finally, head for the sunset.
We ate and drank tea in the moonlight and under a beautiful starry sky and at the top of Tal Moreeb (at my request and for an additional fee).
The ideal opportunity to see one or two shooting stars or the Milky Way.
FYI, I am traveling alone and it was completely safe.
Many thanks to Mohammed again. I really appreciated your kindness and patience😊🙏🏾

Explorer abu dhabi with style! - We had a 14hrs layover in Abu Dhabi, and what we thought would become a waiting torture was turned into a mini Holiday worth way more than what we paid. Who ever read this review, don't search longer and book the tour.

Book it.....Now! - That has to be the first trip you need to do if you are ever in Abu Dhabi. We had a 14h overlay and tool take trip. 10/10 experience which is totaly worth the money.
Our Driver was super friendly :D

Tour for True Desert Experience - The tour was just amazing. The guide, Mohammed, was not only a great tour guide, but also a great driver and a photographer. We enjoyed the breathtaking views of desert, got some nice photos and videos, had fun thrilling drive, and ended the day with nicely cooked dinner and star gazing.
One thing I'm disappointed is that I have my pictures/videos taken by him, which I trusted to receive later on. Unfortunately a week past by, although I contacted them again, none of those memories reached to me. Since it is one of the once in a lifetime moment, I strongly suggest you to use your own phone to take photos so that you can be sure you have those memories in your hand
Other than that, everything is great and if you are looking for a tour which offers true desert experience, this is the one to take.
