Not as good as advertised
Disappointed overall. Lack of communication from the company . I had to message the evening before about time I was being g collected as I had no communication. Guide was lovely and could not fault him. We had no camel riding and my son really was looking forward to this. The dune bashing was great fun but the rubbish in the desert was disgusting. I didnt do the sand boarding because of it. The desert sunrise was amazing though
Response from the operator: We are very sorry to hear that your experience was disappointing in some areas. Please accept our sincere apologies for the lack of communication regarding your pickup time this is not the standard we aim for, and we understand how frustrating that must have been. We're glad to hear that your guide was lovely and that you enjoyed the dune bashing and the beautiful desert sunrise. However, we are truly sorry that the camel ride was not included as expected, and that your son missed out on this experience. We also regret that the condition of the desert affected your enjoyment of sand boarding. We take this feedback seriously and will address it .If you had contacted us during your tour, we would have done our best to arrange the camel ride for you. We are always available to assist our guests and would have been happy to help.We would like to understand more about your booking so we can look into what went wrong.

Morning desert Safari -AWESOME
Was a brilliant morning from start to finish. Started with the quad bikes, which was great fun. Followed by the camel ride. We then went dune bashing in the 4x4 and stopped halfway for the sandboarding. Anwar our driver, was so friendly and informative about the trip and also the local culture. Water was offered on a regular basis. I would 100% recommend this company and would not hesitate to use them again

Why this scores 77
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Morning Desert Safari - Dune Bashing Camel Ride & Sand Boarding: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dubai.
How much does Morning Desert Safari - Dune Bashing Camel Ride & Sand Boarding cost?
+
Prices start at $23 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Dubai usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Morning Desert Safari - Dune Bashing Camel Ride & Sand Boarding take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Dubai is not rushed.
Is Morning Desert Safari - Dune Bashing Camel Ride & Sand Boarding worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 48 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Dubai, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Morning Desert Safari - Dune Bashing Camel Ride & Sand Boarding?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Morning Desert Safari - Dune Bashing Camel Ride & Sand Boarding suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Morning Desert Safari - Dune Bashing Camel Ride & Sand Boarding?
+
Around 17 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Dubai can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Dubai and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Morning Desert Safari - Dune Bashing Camel Ride & Sand Boarding start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Dubai within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Dubai?
+
On Outty we rank every Dubai experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Dubai Premium Red Dunes Safari, Camels & 5* BBQ at Al Khayma Camp, Dubai: Red Dunes Safari, Quad, Camel, Dune Bash, BBQ & Shows, Dubai Dune Buggy Safari Tour in Red Dunes Options. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Dubai?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Dubai?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
