David was very friendly and have us great instructions (as well as a lift home!). The desert driving was amazing fun and so much better than sitting watching someone else drive. The cars were immaculate and it was obvious that the company had a lot of pride in their vehicles. Overall a great day out and a define must do in Dubai

Brilliant day from beginning to end. This was a 70th Birthday gift. Age no barrier.Very professional company. Picked up from hotel on schedule by our guide for the day Kevin. Drive to depot to meet up with others. Got our jeep and familiarised ourselves with it prior to driving to the desert. Stopped off at garage for food before going to desert where we deflated the tyres. Kevin gave great instructions on how to drive the various types of dunes. Started off on smaller ones before progressing to more difficult ones. Kevin taught us how to drift, ascend and descend very challenging dunes. Working our way through the desert to various viewing points to take photographs. The more we drove the more confident you become and the challenges that Kevin gives you are more exciting and demanding and giving you the desert experience. He always praised when you did something well. On leaving desert some 5 hours later we headed off to garage to inflate the tyres before returning the jeep to the depot. Finally Kevin ran us back to our hotel It was one of the most enjoyable days I’ve ever had. Iain & Sheila

Genauso wünsche ich mir ein Attraktionsangebot im Ausland. Trotz einiger Schwierigkeiten zu Beginn (aufgrund einer Fehlbuchung) wurden unsere Erwartungen mehr als erfüllt. Direkt vorweg: GANZ KLARE EMPFEHLUNG!. Die Absprachen im Vorfeld der Reise liefen via WhatsApp und Email lückenlos einwandfrei. Clarisse war sehr bemüht sämtliche Fragestellung unverzüglich zu beantworten. Vor Ort hatten wir mit Kevin einen ausgezeichneten Guide, der uns entspannt an das Fahren mitten in der Sandwüste herangeführt hat und zunehmend den Schwierigkeitsgrad gesteigert hat. Gekrönt wurde die Tour mit dem Erreichen eines tollen Aussichtspunkt. Von dort und auch während der gesamten Fahrt, bot sich Kevin auch immer wieder an Fotos von uns zu machen. Alles in allem eine perfekte runde Sache. Sollte sich die Gelegenheit ergeben, werden wir auf jeden Fall nochmal zuschlagen!
