The gentle pace and the golden glow of the setting sun make this a moment to cherish.
This tour also includes opportunities to relax and enjoy refreshments at a traditional Bedouin-style camp. Savor some Arabic coffee, dates, and light snacks as you unwind from your adventures. The camp’s ambiance, with its authentic decor and serene surroundings, enhances the desert experience and provides plenty of chances for memorable photographs.
For those looking to delve deeper into the region’s traditions, the tour offers insights into the desert’s ecology and its importance to the local community. The desert vistas, with their rolling dunes and vast open spaces, provide a stunning backdrop for your adventure, ensuring you leave with memories to last a lifetime.

I absolutely enjoyed this trip and would definitely recommend it if you have about three to four hours free in Dubai. Our driver, Omar, picked us up right on time and was very polite and friendly—truly a lovely person. The journey to the destination took around 50 minutes, and upon arrival, we were offered complimentary drinks as part of the tour. We also bought traditional headscarves to protect our faces from the sand, which was really helpful. We rented beach buggies and spent an hour driving them, which was perfect—any less time, like 35 minutes, would have been too short. We followed a guide on a quad bike who ensured our safety and well-being throughout the ride. He even stopped for photo opportunities and took some great pictures for us. After the buggy adventure, we tried sandboarding, which was a lot of fun, and then enjoyed a short camel ride. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I highly recommend OceanAir Travels. Omar dropped us back at the hotel and shared videos and photos he had taken on his phone. It was truly amazing! Thank you!

An excellent morning full of adrenaline and fun. The whole experience went smoothly from the initial what’s app the day before until we were dropped back at the hotel. Plenty of water and soft drinks throughout the morning. Arslan our guide was absolutely amazing. He explained what was going to be happening and even found our missing sunglasses for us by taking us back round the dunes in the car to locate our buggy. Even the toilets in the middle of the desert were cleaner than many at home. Would highly recommend.

My trip turned out to be fantastic and went beyond what I had hoped for. First of all, I want to thank our guide, Erixson. He arrived exactly on schedule in a spotless, modern, and comfortable vehicle, which pleasantly surprised me. Erixson shared plenty of insights about Dubai, had a great sense of humor, and was very supportive throughout the journey. From my experience, he stands out as one of the best guides I’ve ever had. The buggy ride was led by a really cool driver, making it a truly fun and enjoyable part of the day. The final stop was the desert camp — although I’m not certain it was Al Khayama Camp as stated in the tour description, it resembled Al Marmoom Oasis more, which I actually preferred. The camp itself was fascinating and perfect for photos. There were some entertaining activities, a delicious BBQ dinner, and a lively show. Overall, it was an incredible experience, and I’d definitely recommend this tour if you’re looking for a memorable desert adventure. After checking many reviews of similar desert tours, this one seems to excel in every aspect.

From the moment Muhammad Arsalan contacted me well in advance to confirm his arrival time, my wife and I had an unforgettable day together. On the way to the dunes, he shared plenty of information about the area and even had cold water ready for us. After the dune buggy ride, he pointed out the restrooms and drinking areas. He stayed with us throughout the day, always anticipating our needs—offering drinks, guiding us to the restrooms, and making sure we didn’t miss anything like the camel ride, henna, or stargazing. I highly recommend this experience and plan to bring our children next time. Thank you very much.
