Things to do in Dubai

Dubai is a metropolis in the UAE, rising from the desert along the Persian Gulf. Once a small port, it has transformed into a ultra-modern city. Dubai weather is hot and dry, with cooler months from November to April for desert safaris, rooftop dining, and beach days. Shopping is a major draw—Dubai Mall, one of the largest in the world right next to the towering Burj Khalifa, offers endless retail and entertainment. The Palm Jumeirah stretches into the sea, home to luxurious resorts and beach clubs. For sweet lovers, Dubai chocolate is a must-try and makes a great souvenir too. From sandy adventures to sky-high views and world-class shopping, Dubai never stops dazzling.

Reviews: Dubai Desert Safari, Dune Bashing, Camel Ride, Sandboarding & BBQ

Our day trip was fantastic! Our guide/ driver were very nice and helpful. The best part was the desert 4wheeling and sunset sandboarding. Lots of beautiful pictures. The dinner show was fun too! Even the buffet food was quite delicious with the BBQ and fresh made roti! Great value for a half day experience. Pleasing my husband and teenage daughter were not easy and we all had smiles on our faces!

We got an adrenaline rush on a safari and even rode ATVs. In the evening, we had a delicious dinner and a beautiful show, and we got henna tattoos.

Overall experience was very nice, tour guide cum driver was excellent. Explained everything in detail. Only we didn’t like was lot of time was spent traveling in the car. There maybe many reasons for that, but overall we think lot of time could be better managed.

We thoroughly enjoyed the tour with Abdul. We booked it with transport and food included. We were picked up and dropped off on time. Abdul provided us with excellent information in German, both in terms of language and content. Thank you for the wonderful time. 5 stars!
