Sehr empfehlenswert! Unser Fahrer Ornell hat uns viele Informationen gegeben und ist z.B. extra nochmals um den Kreisel gefahren, damit wir die Hasen bewundern konnten :) Wir haben uns zudem 100% sicher gefühlt im Auto und in der Wüste. Das Team hat sich gut um uns gekümmert, unsere Frage beantwortet und Fotos von den Teilnehmern gemacht falls gewünscht. Wir haben Oryx-Antilopen und Gazellen gesehen. Alles in allem sehr tolles Erlebnis, welches ich absolut weiterempfehlen kann!

We werden om 5 uur in de ochtend opgehaald in hotel. Op het boekingsformulier stond 4uur. We kregen een berichtje om half 4 dat we later werden opgehaald. Wel handig om dit even in de gaten te houden. Gids was super aardig. Zonsopkomst was mooi om te zien. We hadden ontbijt bij de flamingo vijver. Heel mooi! Een hele leuke ervaring.

Leider haben wir am morgen über 1 h gewartet da wir keine aktulisierten Abfahrzeit erhalten hatte. Auf der Bestätigung stand 4.00 Uhr aber es war dann 5.00 Uhr. Dies war ärgerlich da man zu früh augestanden war. Ansonsten der Ausflug war toll und auch der Guide super.

Der Reiseführer war sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Er hat tolle Bilder von uns gemacht. Während der Fahrt in die Wüste hat er uns noch ein paar interessante Fakten über Dubai erzählt. Wir haben viele Tiere gesehen und das Sandcruisen sowie das Sandboarden haben viel Spaß gemacht. Für das Geld eine absolute top Empfehlung und meiner Meinung nach ein preiswertes Must-Do

It was great morning trip! It started early in the morning (04:30 hotel pick up) but it was beautiful to see the sunrise. We had a nice breakfastduring the tour and were back in the hotel at 09:00, which was great! Saw wildlife during the trip and made nice pictures.

Der See war nicht sehr Sehenswert. Der Ausflug vermittelt im voraus zu viel Tier und Naturwelt , was gar nicht erbracht werden kann .

All round brilliant trip. The guide was superb. On picking us up explained the itinerary, so we not only knew what to expect, but reinforced the expectations we had when booking the trip. On return he even detoured to another location that we missed out on with another tour I reviewed previously. That tour was a complete shambles, this tour was brilliant.

Die Anholzeit am Hotel haben wir vorher per Whatsapp angefragt. Guide war pünktlich zur verabredeten Zeit am Hotel und war auch sehr freundlich. Außerdem hat er uns direkt über den Ablauf der Wüstensafari informiert (ohne Nachfrage). Die angegebene Dauer von 4 Stunden wurde auch genau eingehalten.

Am Morgen der aufgehenden Sonne in der Wüste entgegen zu fahren ist ein sehr tolles Erlebnis. Die weitere Wüstensafari war schon beeindruckend, die Fahrer beherrschen ihre Fahrzeuge im Wüstensand. Die Safari kann man nur weiterempfehlen!

Es war ein toller Ausflug in den Sonnenaufgang der Wüste. Schade das der Stop bei den Tieren so kurz war. Das Frühstück war gut und der Picknickplatz dazu ganz hübsch. Hier wäre ein Tisch oder wenigstens eine Bank ganz nett.
