A very atmospheric place, in my opinion. We bought a Safari tour. In fact, it turned out to be an exciting adventure in a Toyota Sequoia, flying through the desert dunes. From the cars that did not reach the finish line, passengers were quickly transferred to backup cars. We also went ATV riding and took pictures with camels. Finally, several shows brightened up the evening: first the tanura dance, then the fire show, and finally the belly dance. They were very impressive, and we had a wonderful BARBECUE dinner waiting for us. We also took a walk around the territory of this campsite, looked at the surroundings, and were told that in addition to the air-conditioned cabins we saw, there were also huts. And the local seals added exoticism with their purrs. As a result, everything together exceeded the initial expectations - we received a lot of positive emotions, and we had pleasant memories.

We got unforgettable emotions, drive, and lots of new impressions from the tour. I liked absolutely everything, a quad bike ride with descents and ascents with a slip. Jeep Safari on the dunes of the desert is simply indescribable! And of course, a colorful dinner with a national program!

We bought a Safari trip and separately bought a buggy ride. The guide told us to buy arafats and glasses, which we did, we bought it all in the store Day to day, it's like our Fix price. A jeep picked us up from the hotel, we were 4 adults and a child. Upon reaching our destination, we were greeted and seated at a certain numbered table, as there were many groups from different hotels. The sellers began to force us to buy a handkerchief from them, supposedly we would go through the desert, there were winds and sand, the cost was 170 dirhams, to which we replied that we would go in a car and what kind of sand could there be, this handkerchief was purely for photos, they say it costs 89 dirhams to go to Dubai, if you look in day tu Day, you can buy it for 10 dirhams from the force. We were driving a jeep through the desert, a caravan of jeeps, and as a result, I got very seasick, and we were sitting in the back, with sharp turns, the driver's tools bouncing and metal keys rattling. After getting out in the desert, everyone started taking pictures, and then we drove back, arriving back, we were given a disposable hat and helmet, an Arafat hat and glasses, bought in vain. Buggy riding was impressive, we were driving ourselves. After riding a buggy, we decided to ride a camel, it was included in the price, climbed in, circled for 2 minutes and got off, well, such a ride. After that, we had a snack and dinner, a snack of French fries, water to choose from and fish nuggets, then a show program and dinner, a buffet dinner, barbecue, chicken shawarma and all sorts of other things. At 9:30 p.m. it was over and we were taken to the hotel. 4 * Only because of the buggy ride .

I was on safari with the kids. A driver in a comfortable Toyota Sequoia picked us up from the hotel in Sharjah. We reached the desert quickly. Everything is well organized at the campsite. There is a Russian-speaking guide. We were fed twice. We rode camels. We watched dancing with skirts, fire shows and belly dancing. The dune skiing itself is super.

We had a great time on safari. We traveled with the whole family and children (5 and 12 years old). A jeep ride is an incredible adventure, like riding a roller coaster. We all really enjoyed it. An interesting program, after the safari, we had a delicious dinner, belly dancing, and a fire show. A well-organized tour through The Dunes

We were in Russell-Khaimah. Our program was called "Extreme safari on buggies or ATVs." Included: - Transfer from the hotel and back - Buggy/ATV riding 60 min. The price per unit of equipment. We took 1 double buggy ($145) and one quadruple buggy ($225), as we are 6 people (4 adults and two children) Also for an additional fee. the payment was offered for dinner and a live performance ($15 per person) - we also charged this for everyone (+$90) The price also includes camel rides and photo rides, board rides on the sand. The total cost was $460 for six people. A driver in a 7-seater SUV came to the hotel to pick us up. We drove for about 20 minutes. Upon arrival at the camp, we were shown where our table would be. After that, a local employee (his name is Mustafa) (in national dress) came up to us and began to put headscarves on everyone (they seem to be called "Arafat women"). We thought it was free (by the way, everyone thinks so), but after he dressed everyone up, he gave everyone a bunch of compliments. He reported that one such headscarf costs 100 dirhams (which is about 2,200 rubles). And we definitely need him, without him we won't be able to go to the desert, because with his help we will cover our face. But we refused (but that's not all, a couple of people bought them anyway) and he took his handkerchiefs. Then we were sent to ride a buggy / ATV (they didn't offer us a choice - they put us on a buggy), explained how to drive it and we had to follow the escort in the convoy. And they made sure to put helmets on us. (Attention incident!). And these handkerchiefs (arafatki) must be removed from those who had them, because you can't put a helmet on them, and you can't wear one without a helmet. Tadaam!! And the guy who sold these handkerchiefs assured us that we simply could not travel to the desert without these handkerchiefs. As a result, these handkerchiefs were put away in backpacks. (100 dirhams per wind. By the way, these scarves are of very poor quality - the threads stick out, the fabric is cheap, the red price for such scarves is 10 dirhams, and this is already with a 300% markup). don't try to take them, send a forest of this miracle banana. There was a photo stop in the desert on the way. We took a photo, walked along the sand, everything is OK. And we went back to the camp. In fact, the promised 60 minutes of skiing was about 30 minutes. Upon returning to the camp, you can ride camels (there were two of them)...Well, how about a ride... The camels made a small circle around themselves for 30 seconds. (and what did you want - there are a lot of people and everyone wants to get on camels). We took two kids for a ride. Riding a board on the sand: They have two or three old (with a broken attachment) snowboard boards - you take them and roll down the sandy slope. The boards were passed in turn and at will. the children rolled off - they were interested. I slipped...boring doesn't arouse interest. Then there was dinner. It consisted of two stages: 1) Snacks (French fries, nuggets, and something else). soft drinks (cola, fanta, sprite, water), by the way, can be taken in any quantity at the bar (alcoholic for a fee). 2) Main dinner with barbecue. (buffet style) The food is delicious and satisfying, and you can eat. Everything is fine! For example, on similar excursions in Egypt, there is a problem with food - it is disgusting and you don't really want to eat it. And here everything is cooked well. There was a queue for food, of course, but it was enough for everyone. We even went for a barbecue chicken a couple of times. (well, it's really delicious). Next was the show-first the man danced (dancing with a Tanura skirt), a fire show and a belly dance (one girl, she seemed to be Russian). If you've never seen anything like this, then you can visit and see it once, but it seemed boring to me... I was waiting for a speedy conclusion so that I could return to the hotel. Perhaps it was enough to just take a buggy ride through the desert without a show or dinner. And go back to the hotel and watch the show and have dinner there. Whether you liked the tour or not. I liked the desert. It's interesting to visit it once in your life, but no more. The deception with the sale of these scarves to you, as well as the riding time, marred the impression more (they promised 60 minutes, but they deceived you as always and everywhere...everyone is lying).

Intrusive trading. Do not take the raffaxes of the cape for 70D, because they are not needed, as it turned out, they give out helmets)) I liked the buggy and jeep! The food and the show are average. He didn't ride a camel, and he doesn't snowboard down the mountain on the sand.

Guys, this is complete nonsense, I don't recommend it to anyone. They sell you jeep safaris, but in fact you get: - 1 hour of sitting "before" safari - The safari itself lasts an hour or even a little less - then they bring you in and you sit for another 1.5 hours waiting for some kind of program with a fakir and belly dancing. You can't get out of there, you just sit there and wait. In short, you get anything but a full-fledged safari. The ride itself is normal, of course, but very little. There is almost no time to take a picture either

The advantages include excellent infrastructure, dinner, a show, and the availability of a modern toilet. One of the disadvantages is that the driver did not ask to fasten his seat belt, we were sold one seat in the third row of the car, in case of an accident or overturning the car, we could not get out of there, we were with a three-year-old child, there was no warning about extreme driving, we flew back in the dark through the desert at a speed of more than a hundred kilometers /hour, we hit the road and extreme driving began. overtaking in the opposite lane, I definitely do not recommend it with children!

They are picked up from the hotel in a jeep, which is then driven over the dunes and returned to the hotel on it. After the safari, which is really impressive, you can ride an ATV or buggy for 150 and 400 dirhams for 20 minutes, respectively. Departure on this transport is delayed while paperwork is being processed and you have to go already in the dark and in the dust from the ATVs ahead. There is a main dinner between the performances of the artists. Several dozen people line up in a long queue at the buffet option. If it weren't for the huge queue for food, then the safari would have had only positive impressions.

We were there for the first time, a great place! It took a long time to get there, but we were lucky in comfortable jeeps with air conditioning. We drove through the desert, it's still that adrenaline, took pictures on the red sands, watched a show program with a stunning fire show, rode camels. In general, I recommend it, we spent the day with pleasure.

It is clear that the Bedouins are mummers. It takes 1.5 hours to drive.A camel that you can ride forever tired. It is doubtful to ride a board on sand dunes. Sellers brazenly sell Chinese fakes. The rides themselves are sluggish in the sand, well, they can't be compared with Russian rides in the mud. But what was definitely good: I really liked the entertainment program. The rotation dance is super, fireshow really liked it. Belly dancing for an amateur. The final dance together was fun and energetic. There was a lot of food, it was delicious. The beer was 10 dirhams each

An interesting place. It's worth a trip once, for a change, One of the disadvantages is that it takes a long time to get there and the program seemed a little stretched. On the plus side, nice and friendly staff. Russian Russian guide is also available, who tells you everything, and the presenter himself understands a little Russian. It was interesting to drive jeeps! In a couple of moments we thought that we would turn over, but this was the essence of getting pleasure not only from the views, but also from adrenaline. We went for a ride on quadricks, I advise you, the 10-year-old son really went 👍 The show program is twofold. There are numbers straight wow, and there are complex ones, of course, but not something grandiose. Well, as it is, everything is clean and tidy, we were fed normally. I put 5 stars, because there are much more positive moments than negative ones 👍

A place in the desert, after jeep rides in the desert, they are brought there and a fire show begins there with the onset of evening. The food is included, you can take a hookah. Before the show, you can ride a camel and, like, slide down the dunes on a slide on a board.

Everything is comfortable and cleanly organized at the campsite (camel riding, boarding, the toilets are the cleanest - and this is in the desert, places to relax on sofas) The desert and a trip through it are a delight! After skiing in the desert, have a nice dinner and a great show. Delivery is also available at the hotel. Polite and professional driver.

This is the third trip to the desert and the first with a 2-year-old child. Spoiler alert, it's a little early. I was afraid to ride jeeps. The camels were not impressed. It's generally OK for adults, for a change. The sandboard is only for photos, it's unrealistic to ride. The eldest son liked the disco at the end and the unlimited fridge with soda

The first 5 minutes are normal) then I was sick on the dunes in a Toyota, but I liked it on the quadriceps. The Arafats put it on for me, my son, and my wife, and they say that'll be 60 bucks) I thought it was free or included in the tour, if 15 more for all three said ok, but not 60 bucks for three Arafat women, when in Egypt they were bought for 70 cents))) he refused, the dealer left upset)

They will ride on the dunes on cruzaks, redwoods, etc. It will not be good luck to be on the 3rd row and in the company of frightened children. The program includes camel riding (in a circle of 30 meters) and sandboard riding from the dunes. Dinner is practically not edible. Show program: male dance (rotation for 4-5 minutes), fireshow and belly dance.

The desert is amazing, the sand is red, we saw goats, camels walking on it (not wild, of course, they are being looked after). Jeep rides and buggy fire), but the show program after that leaves much to be desired. A very low level of organization. But you can forgive everything for the beauty of the desert. During the show, dinner is a buffet, everything is edible, but there was only one hookah for a large group of tourists)) There is accommodation on the territory, it is probably possible to spend the night, but we did not stay.
