The Dubai desert safari is truly an unforgettable experience! From the thrilling dune bashing in the golden sands to the serene beauty of the sunset over the desert, every moment feels magical. The traditional Bedouin camp offers a perfect blend of culture and entertainment, with delicious local cuisine, mesmerizing belly dancing, and henna art. The camel rides and sandboarding add an adventurous touch, making it an ideal mix of excitement and relaxation. It’s a must-do activity for anyone visiting Dubai!

We have joined the VIP desert safari BBQ dinner tour. It is great! Dune bashing is very exciting. Camel riding is very fun with video and photos taken for us by our guide. BBQ dinner is yummy with plenty of dishes. We watched three different performances over the dinner including belly dance. The guide/driver has taken good care of us and with lots of patience. A must do and must go activities in Dubai visit.

I enjoyed my safari with Zia and Ali, who were very kind, polite and hospitable. I was on a solo trip but after joining the tour with them I felt a part of the group and they took good care of us. I especially enjoyed the sandboarding, the camel ride as well as the shows with the bbq dinner. My trip was memorable! I highly recommend.

We had an absolutely amazing time on our desert safari! Our driver Wajid was exceptional—he took us everywhere and made sure we got to experience everything to the fullest. We got to ride quad bikes, ride camels, and he even brought a board along so we could go sandboarding down the dunes. On top of that, his dune bashing driving skills were incredible—he did some really cool tricks on the dunes! ​Afterward, we went to the camp where they had a delicious buffet with unlimited food. Throughout the evening, there were awesome live performances, including traditional dance and fire shows. Everything was top-notch from start to finish. Highly recommended!

Absolutely enjoyed the experience with Extreme Dune Adventure. Went with my family and had driver Anwar who was very knowledgeable and explained the program. Very accurate on timing, picking from the hotel and driving back. He is an amazing driver in the sand dunes. Very calm and did deliver the required adrenaline. The whole trip was well worth it. So many experiences that you need to take while in Dubai. Dunes, camel riding, photos, BBQ, henna, and a show with Arabic dancers. Could not recommend highly enough. Best company and the most skilful driver. Thank you Anwar and Extreme Dune Adventure! You gave us memories to take back with us to London!

Thank you to Badshah Khan, our guide for desert safari. He was very professional, accommodating and friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed our desert safari experience as Badshah ensured that we visited all areas which were the quad biking, camel riding, sand boarding, dune bashing and camp with several shows and dinner. We felt very comfortable and were taken care of very well. Badshah made sure that we had water in the car and safely dropped us back to our hotel. We would definitely recommend Badshah, as he provides a 5 star service, and ensures that you have a memorable experience. Thank you to Badshah from UK family.

It was really nice. Only the camel ride was disappointingly short. Rashid was a very friendly tour guide.
