Just come back from Dubai, did a lot of research on this before going and booked a safari with North Tours after reading good reports on tripadvisor. My family and I were not disappointed! Our driver, Rashid was very knowledable about the dune area and what we were about to do, he gave a comentary as we drove up to... more

I was pretty excited for this given the great reviews, but was left feeling only luke-warm about it. I should say upfront that we booked through our hotel, and didn't ask many questions about the service, which may have been the first mistake - but since it was in a price range (~$65) similar to the plethora of tours I'd... more

We used OneWorld Tours for our Safari and had a great time. Expect a lot of time driving to pick up others at their hotels, followed by another 45 mins to 1 hour from Dubai to the dune bashing site. The dune bashing is a lot of fun and shouldn't be too scary for anyone but the most timid. The... more

We booked and paid some extra money to have the vehicle to ourselves. Really good fun for the money and one of the best experiences on our trip to Dubai. Due to ramadan there was no belly dancer but it didnt really take away from the experience. The driver was very knowledgeable on everything which really added to the experience.... more

I can see why this attraction is rated #1. Don't miss it. There seems to be lots of companies offering the service, not sure it matters which one. We chose to book the whole vehicle for ourselves. The ride was wild and exciting. The sand boarding and camel rides were something to try, but not spectacular. The dinner at the... more

Just Arrived back home in London and I really wanted to write a review about North Tours! We paid for a whole package for Dhow Cruise & Dune Bashing, it was the most memorable experience we've ever had. We got a brand new toyota land cruiser and the ride was immensley comfortable. Adding to that our driver, a very friendly... more

we where picked up around 16.30 in a 4WD and drove through the Emirates up to 40 minutes to a meeting point in the desert. It was very nice that we even got picked up in Sharjah, while our Tour-company - One World Travel and Tourism - is situated in Dubai. We waited about 15 minutes, therewhile the tires got... more

We booked Sand and Ski Dubai with North Tours (they also do the Desert Safari). We were driven to the desert, quite a large group, and our tour leader brought out 2 sand boards one of which was broken. Then on the way back one of the cars broke down and we were told to get out of the other... more

Everything was fantastic. We went with Arabian Adventures and paid the extra cost to have the whole jeep for the 4 of us as I have 2 young children so the driver could take an smoother ride if you wished. My children were 3 and 6 at the time and loved it, the dunes are amazing, the food and entertainment... more

We booked this tour through our hotel & was given the most amazing experience from star to finish by our driver (I think it was Knights tours). He wore the traditional Arab clothing which made the experience seem more authentic, some of the other drivers were in western clothing.We husband who is 6' 5",was kindly put in the front of... more
