BOOK UMER & THIS TEAM! Best in Dubai!
UMER! UMER! UMER! The best tour company in DUBAI! This team is great! From the airport pick up to the airport drop off. With New Dreams, we did a dinner cruise and UMER and his team went above and did birthday decorations and gave the birthday girl an awesome birthday cake that was delish. UMER arranged a private driver for us to tour the Abu Dhabi, the Grand Mosque, Ferrari World and Yas Mall. The best was a private photo tour! In our private sprinter van, we went to all the popular sites to take personal photos, the Burj Khalifa, Mexican Wings, Museum of the Future Peace statue, and the LOVE DUBAI transformation sign. Our last excursion was the Desert Safari. It was AWESOME! In our group we had young, middle aged and seniors, UMER and his team were great and understood our diverse needs and request. Hit him up on WhatsApp! He will communicate with you beginning to end. BOOK THIS TEAM! You will be glad you did! UMER is now my family! Madam! When you are happy, UMER is HAPPY! 😊😊😊
Response from the operator: Dear Jennifer Mam, Thank you for your fantastic review! We're absolutely delighted to hear that you enjoyed your recent stay with us at New Dreams Tourism. We're thrilled you enjoyed your stay with us. Your feedback is invaluable, and we'll use it to make your next visit even better. Looking forward to welcoming you again soon!

Why this scores 58
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
“Private Dubai Desert Safari – Dune Bashing, Camel Ride & BBQ”: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dubai.
How much does “Private Dubai Desert Safari – Dune Bashing, Camel Ride & BBQ” cost?
+
Prices start at $285 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 “Private Dubai Desert Safari – Dune Bashing, Camel Ride & BBQ” take?
+
Plan for about 6 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 “Private Dubai Desert Safari – Dune Bashing, Camel Ride & BBQ” worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 7 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 “Private Dubai Desert Safari – Dune Bashing, Camel Ride & BBQ”?
+
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 “Private Dubai Desert Safari – Dune Bashing, Camel Ride & BBQ” suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book “Private Dubai Desert Safari – Dune Bashing, Camel Ride & BBQ”?
+
Around 2 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does “Private Dubai Desert Safari – Dune Bashing, Camel Ride & BBQ” 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.
