    Well worth the early morning wake up to see such an amazing sunrise and wild animals in the desert. Guide was an expert at navigating and at times the drive was white knuckle. Sand boarding was a great experience but a strenuous walk back up so only for the fittest. Enjoyable breakfast picnic rounded off a fantastic trip Would definitely recommend!

    Fantastic experience from pick up to drop off. Our guide was friendly, fun and informative. Saw lots of desert wildlife and learned so much about the animals. We felt that we were in safe and experienced hands. The dunes drive was brilliant. Lovely Arabian Coffee and Dates at sunrise and then a breakfast to finish. Very highly recommend this experience.

    Mustafa our guide collected us from our hotel at the time advised, a drive out to the desert, tyres deflated a touch and then into the desert ready for the sunrise. It was a once in a lifetime experience seeing the sunrise over the dunes. Lots of photos and some sand boarding then off powering through the dunes in the Land Cruiser!! A picnic and flamingo watching at the end. Thank you!
