    Wonderful
    Fantastic experience for seven of us. We planned the two hour tour during sunset. We found them easily at the marina then sailed out to Atlantis. We got the opportunity to see Dubai skyline in day light and then at night.

    Two hours was enough for us.

    The staff were very friendly and welcoming, offered soft drinks. Boat was beautiful, very clean and luxurious.

    I booked from UK and transferred half of the payment from Uk. I was a little nervous about this but no need to be.
    A great first night in Dubai

    A wonderful experience with excellent views
    Friendly staff and well organized. The boat stops at many attraction points for taking pictures and the guide lady helps taking photos with instructions of quite professional photographer style. As she said, for the Instagram :D. She also explained the building histories with jokes occasionally. The captain’s driving skill is good too, we felt excited but not scared. The boat speed was fast for a short time with rock music then changed to slower speed, let us have a break after screaming during the fast move :D. Absolutely wonderful experience!

    Wonderful quad tour
    Very fun and pleasant bike tour, the guide was very friendly and patient as well. Organisation was efficient too! Highly recommend to anyone considering taking part in this activity as it is very much worth it and my kids (18 and 12 years old) also absolutely loved the experience.

    Great experience with our instructor Armand! The buggies were so much fun to drive and Armand made us follow an exciting path across the dunes, fast but always in the limits os safety. Really good.

    wild arabian night!
    After driving with around with our very friendly guide we got a chance to drive with an atv (altrough you have to pay extra for it), afterwards we drove trough the red desert be warned it is a rough ride but it is so much fun!
    afterwards he gave me and my girlfriend some time to take wonderfull pictures from the desert and de sunset, after this we drove to a desert camp and had a good buffet with veggies bbq and a good dessert with a bellydancer and a firebreather show.
    it is worth it's money .
