From the moment I contacted the tour operator, I felt at ease. Their staff responded promptly, demonstrating deep knowledge and genuine passion for every historical site. Our itinerary included Petra, Wadi Rum, the Dead Sea and more—each destination exceeded my expectations. The guide was engaging, patient, and fluent in both English and Arabic; they shared stories of ancient Nabateans, Ottoman heritage, and Bedouin tradition in a way that made me feel connected, not just like a tourist. Accommodations were comfortable, clean, and well‑chosen; meals were authentic Jordanian cuisine, often family‑run restaurants with warm hospitality. Transportation was safe and comfortable, with thoughtful rest stops. The pace was balanced—neither rushed nor sluggish—allowing moments to reflect, take photos, or simply breathe in the beauty. I appreciated their flexibility too: a detour to a local market was welcomed, even though not in the original plan. Overall, the tour operator provided a trip that felt personal, insightful, and deeply moving. I returned home with richer understanding, many fond memories, and a desire to return someday.
My friend and I had a fantastic time on our trip. We were met by someone who helped us get the necessary paperwork, traveled to Wadi rum (we slept), stopped at a nice shop where we purchased beautiful scarves, and departed with our Wadi Rum local guide! Our guide was awesome, know all of the best spots to visit and photo spots as well! He was kind and attentive as I got sick at the beginning of our journey. We enjoyed staying at Sun Camp - the staff was so kind to us and generous in their efforts. We were fasting and they prepared food for us that night so we wouldn't be hungry. Our driver drove us to Petra (we slept), checked in to the hotel, and thoroughly enjoyed our guide who was also a local! We definitely benefited from his knowledge and connections! We enjoyed dinner in a cave and the following day our driver made arrangements for us to add an additional stop (for a cost). We were blessed to visit Jesus' baptism site before enjoying the amazing Dead Sea!
I've been on a few desert safari trips In Abu Dhabi but this was by far the best. Roosal was the best driver and always made sure we were accommodated for. The whole experience from start to finish was amazing and I cannot recommend this company enough. One of the best days out I've had and will definitely be back again.
Cross the desert of Dubai by 4WD Land Cruiser on a half-day evening safari, with plenty of stops to take photographs of the scenery en route.
Following a hotel pick-up from any hotel in Dubai, you will drive across the sand dunes en route to a camel farm. Then, continue your drive to watch a beautiful sunset before reaching a nomadic camp.
Upon arrival, you will have the chance to ride the “ships of the desert” to see the landscape from a different perspective on the back of a camel. Get an adrenaline fix during a sand boarding ride down the dunes, or, if you feel more like relaxing, get a henna design on your hands or feet.
Having worked up an appetite, sit down to a delicious barbecue dinner, and try a traditional Arabic water pipe. Before your return transfer to Dubai, be mesmerized by an authentic belly dance show as a lithe dancer performs around the campfire by starlight.
