Dune bashing and so much more!
brielsteinberg
, Feb 2020
Extraordinary adventure in Abu Dhabi - we had a wonderful time. Dune bashing was definitely a highlight, our driver/tour guide Faisel made us feel safe and free to have a ton of fun as we were careening around and over the desert landscape. He took endless photos of us, encouraged us (me) to try the sand boarding which was so much fun, and in a particular memorable moment, when I mentioned that the sun set behind us as we drove was pretty, drove to the top of a high dune so we could see it set properly - and get great photos to boot. Highly highly recommended - and get Faisel if you can!

An enjoyable evening in the desert lead by an able guide in Nadeer. Activities were well timed and coordinated. Dune bashing was very good and had sufficient time to catch a glimpse of the beautiful sunset. Would definitely recommend this tour.

Our driver was attentive, knowledgeable, and most importantly safe. His name was Faisel. As the tour said. We visited a camel farm, dune bashing, sand boarding, camel riding. All activities were well supervised. When it came to dinner and the entertainment all was enjoyable. A great activity that I would recommend to anyone with time in Abu Dhabi.

Absolutley Wonderful Experience

Hamza was a brilliant guide - he made sure we felt okay in the dune bashing - which was a lot smoother than I thought it would be! The food at the camp was lovely and the entertainment was great too - a bit of audience participation if you enjoy that is included! Hamza made sure we got as many pictures as possible to remember the day, without being intrusive. Thanks to the company for organising a great tour!

Il safari fatto in Abu Dhabi, riassumendo in una parola, è stato meraviglioso Una organizzazione perfetta dal primo momento che ci hanno prelevato. L'autista di nome Biju è stato molto professionale nella guida tra le dune del deserto la adrenalina è andata a 1000 nella gita era compreso anche giro sul cammello, vestizione con abiti locali e la cena nel deserto, è stata affascinante, conclusa con danze del ventre un tramonto mozzafiato ha decretato la conclusione della giornata
