Ibrahim was a great guide and photographer! As a solo traveler, I usually don't get many non selfie pictures of myself. That was not a problem on this trip! He was able to tell me what to do to get good pictures and videos that I wouldn't have even thought of. I got to do everything I wanted to in the desert while still having enough time left in the day to do other things in Dubai.

Our driver Abbas was the best . Very skilled and always felt like we were in safe hands . From pick to drop everything went without a hitch and he even went above and beyond. The camel ride was amazing and we even got to have an extra go free of charge . The dunes were spectacular but be warned if you go on a windy day sand will get everywhere as you can imagine. The views we out of this world and would blow anyone’s mind . Shame about the traffic getting back to the hotel but we did pick 3pm in the afternoon so it was rush hour on the way home . 10/10 would highly recommend too anyone looking to have a amazing experience.

The journey turned out to be unreal! We visited the desert for the first time and experienced crazy emotions. We tried everything that was stated in the excursion. We rode a camel, drove extremely through the desert, thanks to the guide for the funny photos and descent on the board. The impressions will last for a year.
