Disappointing, and not what I expected
This will maybe be one of the bad review among all the great ones. But this is an honest review from a family of 4, children 11 and 14. We had our own rental and stayed in Al Marjan Island. Therefor pickup could not be done and we had to meet at the starting point. It took me forever to even get the location for meeting the crew, but eventually got it by a contact that was listed on TripAdvisor. We drove a few hours earlier to have spare time to see the desert or have quick meal. We ended up driving back and forth because the location was not possible to drive through. Finally I got hold of our driver for the evening who told me another waypoint, which worked. We ended up coming 2 minutes before meeting time. We met the driver, he told us to hop in. Only knowing the general program we had no idea what we were going to do but found out that this was not the dune bashing trip. Overall - every activity was hurried through, we felt like products on a manufacturing line be skipped to each new processing station. We ended up at the camp where meals were given and a few shows. We were in such a hurry that we didn’t get to do sand boarding or have the Hanna tattoo for the young one. So generally a very disappointing trip. I would never recommend this to anyone. But maybe it all lies in the fact that we came by ourselves? Maybe the crew informed people in the transportation cars from the hotel how the experience was going to be? I don’t know. But rest assured, I very rarely give bad reviews, but this was not at all what I expected.

We liked the dune bashing...
We liked the dune bashing as the guide played great music and it was so much fun . Quad biking was done in a place private area for 30 minutes . Premium buffet food was good . The shows weren’t that impressive only 3 shows performed by individual artists.

Why this scores 85
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
VIP Desert Safari with 30 Minutes Quad Bike & Dinner & Shows: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dubai.
How much does VIP Desert Safari with 30 Minutes Quad Bike & Dinner & Shows cost?
+
Prices start at AED 160 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 VIP Desert Safari with 30 Minutes Quad Bike & Dinner & Shows 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 VIP Desert Safari with 30 Minutes Quad Bike & Dinner & Shows worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 85 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 406 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Dubai, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule VIP Desert Safari with 30 Minutes Quad Bike & Dinner & Shows?
+
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 VIP Desert Safari with 30 Minutes Quad Bike & Dinner & Shows 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 VIP Desert Safari with 30 Minutes Quad Bike & Dinner & Shows?
+
Around 142 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 VIP Desert Safari with 30 Minutes Quad Bike & Dinner & Shows 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 Evening Desert Safari Dune Bashing, BBQ Dinner & Live Shows. 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.
