5-Star Review for Desert Thril Tourism

Our experience with Desert Thril Tourism was absolutely unforgettable! From start to finish, the entire day was a perfect blend of adventure, culture, and relaxation. A huge thank you to our tour guide, Nadeem, who went above and beyond to ensure we had a seamless and enjoyable experience. His professionalism, knowledge, and warm personality truly set the tone for an amazing day.

The dune rides were exhilarating—the guide’s expert driving skills made the experience both thrilling and safe. Afterward, we enjoyed a peaceful camel ride that gave us a taste of traditional desert life. The desert camp was the highlight of the day, offering a fantastic atmosphere with stunning views of the sunset.

The entertainment at the camp was vibrant and engaging, with mesmerizing dancing performances that added to the authentic Arabian experience. The food was delicious, featuring a variety of flavors and dishes that catered to every palate.

Desert Thril Tourism, with Nadeem’s exceptional guidance, gave us memories that will last a lifetime. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a truly magical desert adventure!

It was a phenomenal experience. We were picked up from our residence and dropped back in a land cruiser… The food was great, ATV and dune buggy rides (paid separately) were thrilling and so was the dune bashing.
Highly recommended to anyone who wants to have a great desert experience 👍

The desert safari is a place which you should not miss if you are a first time comer to Dubai. The breathtaking view of the sunset, the smile on the face of the people, have brought us so many cherishing memories. Our driver Nadeem ji was very kind and generous. Thanks to him we got an extra 10 minutes on our ATV. And thanks to him, we enjoyed the trip the most.

ABSOLUTE PERFECTION!

I just returned from the most incredible desert safari experience, and I’m still reeling from the thrill! Our driver, Jabed, was an absolute rockstar! His exceptional skills, knowledge, and hospitality made our adventure truly unforgettable.

From the moment we were picked up, Jabed ensured our comfort and safety throughout the journey. His expert navigation of the dunes was awe-inspiring, and we felt like we were flying over the sand!

The safari itself was breathtakingly beautiful, with stunning vistas and an unforgettable sunset. Jabed’s insights into the local culture, history, and wildlife added depth and richness to our experience.

The campsite was equally impressive, with delicious food, refreshing drinks, and warm hospitality. We even got to enjoy some thrilling camel rides and try our hand at Quad biking.

Jabed, you’re the best! Your passion, energy, and dedication to providing an exceptional experience shone through every moment. We can’t thank you enough for an unforgettable adventure!

To anyone considering this desert safari, STOP READING AND BOOK IT NOW! You won’t regret it. 10/10 would recommend!”
