    We had a wonderfully unforgettable experience. Truly had a feel of the desert safari. Very thoughtful, organized tour experience. The staff and the local people were just as friendly. Viator you’ve been consistently efficient. Keep it up.

    We had to book a private option as the other cars where full – however there is nothing private about it and you end up and the same boring camp as everyone else.
    The camel ride is only 2 min for photos and you are taken in a circle – literally.
    Henna – Having had proper henna before, the lady they have isn’t skilled and just does basic prints on your hand, in a rush to get everyone going.
    One of the worst trips ive booked on Viator and not at all worth the money paid.
    Literally – not a single cent.

    The trip with Mohamed was fantastic!
    If you want to make a safari tour it is so far the best.
    Mohamed knows perfectly the desert and drive the car in the sand like a real Professional ! (perfect driving technic)
    The car is very comfortable and powerful. Moreover he puts you in the mood with the perfect arabic music in the car.
    Nothing to add, it cannot be better…
    If you have the chance to live that : The sunset in the desert is beautiful.

    Loved loved loved this outing! It was nice to do something away from the city, the scheduled pickup from our location was prompt. The dune bashing was amazing and thrilling (do not be scared, you will be fine)! The camp with the other activities was nice and chill. Overall an experience I would do again and tell anyone who hasn’t done it yet to go ahead and book.

    The driver was very talented on the dunes. Kept us on the edge. Well done! Dancers were very talented and entertaining. First time on a camel for the kids

    Sensations garanties

    The was the best part of our trip. Everything about this Safari was perfect. It started with one of the best tour guides (Aziz) anyone can ever have. He explained everything so well and was more than patient. The trip itself checked all the right boxes. It was entertaining, timing was perfect and every activity was extremely fun.
    Aziz was so unbelievably kind. When the tour ended and we had to leave, we wanted to take a family picture wearing local clothing. Although the tour was over, Aziz told us to take our time and do whatever makes us happy. He even helped us put on the headgear the correct way and when we ran out of headgear, he took off his own to give to me. He took many pictures for us and kept asking if we are happy and if we wanted anything else.
    I cannot say enough good things about this tour and I more than highly recommend everyone goes on it.

    The experience was worth it, you get a for your money. The guide Azaz was very nice and made out trip unforgettable.
    Although it is hot in the desert in the afternoon- bring along some longer clothes for later in the evening!!

    O passeio ao deserto é muito legal e vale
    a pena fazer! Porém não com esse guia.
    Guia se mostrou mal intencionado ao
    cobrar valores exorbitantes no passeio de
    quadriciclo. Em um primeiro momento o
    guia ofereceu tal passeio por 100 dirhams por pessoa com duração de 1 (uma)
    hora. Depois, para confundir, disse o
    mesmo valor por pessoa para passeio de
    meia hora. Ao negarmos, ofereceu o
    passeio de 10 minutos por 100 dirhams
    total, para os 3 passaqeiros. Aceitamos o passeio de 10 minunutos. Porém, ao final o
    guia tentou cobrar 100 dirhams por
    pessoa pelo passeio de 10 minutos.
    Precisamos argumentar que o valor
    combinado não era aquele e então
    pagamos 150 dirhams para não ter confusão, entretanto a confiança já havia
    acabado. Outros problemas ocorreram
    também. Não tivemos a equitação de
    camelos, que constava como incluso,
    sem nenhuma explicação. Não parou por
    ai. O passeio diz incluir chá, café e refrigerante, porém os dois primeiros só
    foram oferecidos do chegamos na aldeia
    e o refrigerante apenas quando o jantar
    foi liberado. E por falar no jantar, outra
    decepção: o churrasco oferecido é
    completamente limitado. Fomos servidos uma única vez e com uma quantidade
    mínima, sendo apenas 02 pequenos
    espetos de carne de frango e um
    pedacinho de carne. Ao tentar repetir, nos
    foi negado. Saímos com fome! Após tudo
    isso, como se não fosse suficiente experiencia ruim, ao pararmos em um
    posto de combustível para abastecer o
    carro, o guia arrumou confusão com o
    frentista. Mais de 10 minutos de muita
    discussão, que nos deixou muito
    assustados. Portanto, recomendo
    fortemente o passeio, porém por outra companhia e com guia diferente.

    Amazing experience with very beautiful views and memorable moments !
    Aziz our guide really made the experience worthwhile. He was very professional, gave good advices on the activities,
    I Would definitely recommend booking this trip through him, he was awesome

    The trip itself was very good – everything that was advertised and more. The drive thru the dunes was hair-raising and really enjoyable. The camel rides, sand-surfing, belly-dancing and other entertainment was really good. One major downside was that the driver arrived 80 minutes late. My family cut short our afternoon on the beach to be ready for our 2:30pm pickup. I contacted Extreme Arabia at 2:40pm and was told they were contacting the driver. Several texts later I was being promised that they would be back in touch in 5 mins. After I called the company I was told that there has been a serious car accident with the first driver and that the replacement would be there in “max 15 mins”. We were about to give up on it, after sitting outside our hotel for 80 mins, when the driver arrived apologising for going to the wrong hotel. The driver was good, the trip was really enjoyable, but an 80 minute delay and a really poor customer service during the delay (I would have been OK if someone just told me honestly how long the delay was going to be) soured the experience somewhat. I would still recommend it though.

    I couldn’t have asked for more!! Desert safari is one of my best life experiences so far! The drivers and all the people were very friendly and they made this tour even more unique !

  18. FG_L

    10 minutes before the pick-up time, they called to say that the vehicle would break down and wanted to postpone the trip the next day. After I explained that I could not postpone they sent someone else an hour and a half later. The trip itself was great!

    Von den 6 Stunden, die der Ausflug dauert, verbringt man 4 Stunden nur mit Zeit tod schlagen. Definitiv nicht nochmal und eine totale Abzocke.
    Mit dem Jeep über die Dünen zu fahren war das Highlight und auch der 5-Minuten Fotostop in der Wüste war gut. Dann wurden wir zu einer “Kamelfarm” gebracht, wo uns der Fahrer rauslies und dann mit all unseren Sachen wegfuhr. Dann standen wir ziemlich irritiert gute 10 Minuten vor den paar eingesperrten Kamelen und warteten. Anschließend wurden wir in das Beduinenlager gebracht, wo man theoretisch Kamelreiten sollten. Allerdings waren die beiden Kamele ziemlich aggressiv und sind mit den 3 Personen vor uns durchgegangen und haben sie runtergebuckelt. Ein Kamel ist dann auch auf die Brust des Mannes gestiegen und ist dann in die Wüste verschwunden, was dem anderen Kamel ziemlich gestunken hat. Man durfte sich dem verbliebenen Kamel auch nicht mehr nähern. Dann warteten wir 2,5 Stunden im Beduinenlager ohne dass etwas geboten war. Die Hennermalerei dauerte auch nur circa 5 Minuten.
    Als es endlich das BBQ gab waren die Belagen (Nudeln, Reis) bereits kalt. Der Bauchtanz hat es auch nicht mehr rausgerissen.

    Amazing experience! Pick up was punctual, the driver was so nice. As a woman traveling alone I felt super safe and in good hand.. even during the crazy sand dune drive! I did feel bad for the bird that was around during the dinner- it’s eyes were covered and the feet were chained down all night. The camels also had big masks on. I wish they didn’t subject these animals to this cruelty just so people could take pictures. Besides that, the experience was great. The show was awesome and the food was delicious. I would recommend this tour

  23. Matt

    Wow – this was epic! Such an incredible experience going over the dunes, and the spot we had dinner in was simply magical – I felt like had found Agrabah! Couldn’t recommend enough.

  24. Roshni_P

    The driver (Abdul) was super friendly and informative at all stages during the day. We were contacted prior to the safari and were picked up on time. Dune bashing was excellent and food delicious (freshly made). There were 2 performances and we ended the day with star gazing. The washrooms could do with a bit more care and attention but overall I would absolutely recommend the experience to anyone travelling to Abu Dhabi!

  25. Almira_H

    Le cadre est juste magnifique. La conduite dans les dunes est superbe. Le coucher de soleil exceptionnel. Joli spectacle et personnel aimable.

  26. franck_h

    Excellente promenade dans le désert avec notre super chauffeur Shakeer.
    Prise en charge, circuit dans les dunes, sans lard, très bien animé par Shakeer.
    Le repas du soir et l’animation du soir sont parfaits.
