“By far the best tour during my time in Dubai! Transportation was provided from our hotel; the ATV riding was a blast! I like that you have the option to do a less intense course in front of the main building, but I recommend the course with the hills and soft sand- the scenery is remarkable. The camp site that you go to after is amazing; some of the best food I’ve had in Dubai (a bbq is included in the price). There were plenty of activities to take part in on the camp grounds, like henna, shisha, falcon holding and camel rides- and it’s all included! Would definitely take…”

“The experience was well organised and the staff was very welcoming. My main concern was that we were a group of about 70 people and that kind of ruined the experience, if it would have been kept down to 20/30 max it would have been much more enjoyable. I’ll start with the good part, which was the last stop with the stargazing, Teide National park is very beautiful and at night is worth seeing as well. We had full moon so visibility was very good and gave it a beautiful eerie vibe, and we could still see plenty of stars up there even with the moonlight. They had 4 telescopes…”
